How many Season Tix Sold?

[CodyJ.]

I may have missed it. But I've been looking for the past few weeks for some info on this. Does anyone know where we are at in terms of #'s? Has the schedule helped?

The eternal question. Better asked of the athletic dept. It's cloaked in mystery.

Don't you guys know? BC is improving their recruiting efforts and looking to improve upon last year's 2-10 record!! Who cares about UCONN news in the single most important season of UCONN football when we can read beautifully written fluff pieces about our New England BFFs?

You trying to tell Dez how to do his job? Dez hates folks that try to tell him how to do his job.

This information usually comes out mid to late July.

Based on pure idle speculation, it's up in the air if the numbers are going to be rip-roaring. I would think that if the campaign wasgoing really well, the university would have begun a big push of "last chance to get your tickets", "only 1,000 remain" kind of stuff. Basically they had every incentive if the numbers were going gangbusters to release the information early to generate further publicity and positive buzz.

I'm still cautiously optimistic that the number gets to 28,000, if not 30k. If the number is 27k, that would just be normal bad. At 26,000 numbers will be up, but up by only 3,000 and considering michigan, MD, UofL, and Rutgers, that's just bad. At that point something has to change.

Don't get me started if the numbers continue under 25k.

Awe man. Dont get me started on that Hack. My sister could write more interesting articles that keep us more informed.

Good information/thoughts Rumrunner. Thanks

wow

I expect the number to be right around 25k. That way I can be pleasantly surprised, plus its in line with the continuing trend of depressing news around the program.

Last year Desmond Conner responded to this very question on July 24, which roughly coincides with the beginning of fall practice.

Let's start with this...Has the question been asked? Answers may not be directly given to an asked question, but an answer will definitely not be directly given to a question that goes unasked.

The graph represents total season tickets sold. Last year at this time 19,000 were sold, and a total of 25,000 were sold for the year.

30k would be tremendous. I agree If the numbers were really good they would be out making a lot of noise.

26,500 would be a 15% increase (actually much higher if you look at non-students). I'd put the number around there in the end.

 

[CTGoonie]

I'm expecting 23,500 but hope I have greatly underestimated...

 

[UConnPete]

20k tops. This number gets overestimated every year on here. I think the fans are sick of the DeLeone and Pasqualoni show. As of a few weeks ago they were still sending e-mails about student season tickets being available.

unfortunately, I think you're going to end up being the closest

 

[hthusky74]

I would expect 23,000 except that the Michigan game may provide a little boost. 25-26,000 tops. If it gets to 30,000, then we have Madoff's accountant doing the books.

If it's 20k or less I will wash the shart stains out of HFD's briefs for a month.

The Michigan factor makes it a 23-25k at the very least.

It would take you a month to get them out! LOL

 

[Jimmy Serrano]

My best guess is right around 25k give or take a thousand. In 2014 we would kill for that number.

The graph shows 23,000 last year. So is it 23K or 25K, or who knows? Or are these figures even inflated? How low will it go this year? The trend of the graph is alarming and may be why the ACC and B1G won't ever come knockin.

 

[Husky25]

The 23k was obscured by the blue line. Intentionally, perhaps.

Almost as much as he hates actually doing his job.

presupposing that he actually does it.
