Message: [QUOTE="j66kicker, post: 2970098, member: 4447"] For the Oklahoma game the other night I had ordered some nice seats (lower bowl, ~ half-way up) directly from OU for I think $12. The upper bowl seats were GA for $8. When we got to the arena there was a scalper in the parking lot so we asked what he had, just out of curiosity. We ended up giving him $20 each for $15 face value seats in the 4th row behind the press table. Plus he bought our original tix for $5 each. Supply & demand, I guess. Of course OU is much like S. Carolina, in that it gets a LOT of revenue from being a big-time football school (only OU is more big-time than SC - 7 NCs and 7 Heisman winners). Like SC, I don't think WBB is more than an "incidental expense" on the income statement ("Title IX Expense"?). They keep paying Sherri Coale $1 million a year for basically zip results in the last 10 years, and don't seem to notice. [/QUOTE]
