BarnWinterSportsEngelstad Posted August 14, 2017 Author Share Posted August 14, 2017 Correct me if I'm wrong. Student Section has 2177 seats: 212 726 seats 213 726 seats 214 725 seats Visitors section: 215 345 seats, lower 15 rows are blocked off. If not all sold, those are returned to UND on Fridays and are put for sale. Parents seats? Band is in student section lower 212. What other seats are blocked off?

Hardcore Hawk Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 51 minutes ago, BarnWinterSportsEngelstad said: 2016 attendance for the 6 FB games at the Hawk's Nest 11,477 9-17 SD Potato Bowl 10,097 10-1 Cal Poly Military Apr 10,506 10-15 S Utah Homecoing 8,699 10-29 Weber State Band Day 9,049 11-12 N Arz Senior Day 9,837 12-3 Richmond NCAA 2nd round With already an additional 1,000 season tickets sold for 2017, can we break 10,000 for every game? I would think the new target should certainly be higher than 10k, given the hype going into this season and the new season tickets sold. If students consistently show up in droves, I don't think it would be unrealistic to see an average near 11,000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The momentum is building. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CMSioux Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 Now they need to come up with a policy that doesn't allow people to just use the spots for convenient parking or just once or twice a year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I meant to say, 217 is where the visitors section is, and the bottom 15 rows at that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sioux95 Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Just looked at tickets for a couple of games at the end of the season and if my family wants to sit together we will be on the 10 yard line. Last year we got great seats a week before the game. Gotta love what bubba has done for the program! 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Won't be long and the 4 corners will all that'll be left for a group. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I talked to a guy from the Gametime experience committee last night and he says Potato Bowl and Homecoming will be near sellouts, how awesome is that.

Popular Post UND-FB-FAN Posted August 22, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted August 22, 2017 Bubba has done one thing tremendously well: believe that UND is a special place for football. The previous staff had limitations in their confidence and vision. Bubba and his staff have done the polar opposite. It's been tremendous for this program. Great things are ahead. 2 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post gundy1124 Posted August 24, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted August 24, 2017 Not the final final, but close to it I think. There will be a lot, I heard 10,000 donated by UND Football Alumni, available in Tailgating. Then retailers might sell, too, if it catches on and stays strong. 1 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
