MJAlltheWay24 Posted January 10, 2019 Posted January 10, 2019 Big game in Highland Heights on Friday Night. From what I hear the lower bowl is sold out and they've filled up a section or two upstairs so far. Should be a huge crowd. Might set the attendance record for a regular season NKU game at BB&T. I believe it might be Campbell County night too, so discounted tickets for their residents.
MJAlltheWay24 Posted January 10, 2019 Author Posted January 10, 2019 Oh yeah, the game is televised on ESPN 2 at 7pm.
UKMustangFan Posted January 10, 2019 Posted January 10, 2019 Hopefully the storm/snow system that is coming in doesn't deter the crowd. I'm actually hoping I won't be in attendance for this one. That'd mean we were at the hospital for #2's arrival. :lol2:

My guess is the best they can do is the second highest regular season attendance. I don't think they will break the West Virginia attendance from a few years back. That was a good crowd.

Oh yeah, I forgot that WVU came to town once. You're probably right there. Apparently NKU requested a second beer vendor for the game, so I won't have as much free reign as I usually do haha!
ManOfTroy Posted January 10, 2019 Posted January 10, 2019 WV game only drew a little more than 5,000. Didn't they get over 6,000 for a homecoming game in the last few years? Either way, I was talking with a friend about it being a D1 era record. Heard the sidelines are over half 2/3 in the upper deck.

Either way, I was talking with a friend about it being a D1 era record. Heard the sidelines are over half 2/3 in the upper deck. I thought we had more for the WV game. I still think topping 6,000 will be tough. Right now the three upper sections behind the benches (201, 202, and 203) are sold out except for the top 2-3 rows. On the opposite side (sections 210, 211, and 212) are sold out except for he last 4-5 rows. They have not opened or sold any tickets in sections 204, 205, 206, 207, 208, or 209.

If the lower bowl and those sections are all already sold out, they'll have to open a couple of those other sections simply to accommodate the walk up crowd. Place holds 9,400. How many seats are in those 6 sections? 500 in each?
MJAlltheWay24 Posted January 10, 2019 Author Posted January 10, 2019 Believe I saw that they were allowing students to "bring a friend" for free.
Oldbird Posted January 10, 2019 Posted January 10, 2019 Believe I saw that they were allowing students to "bring a friend" for free. They have pulled out every trick to try to get a big crowd Friday. Hope it pays off. They are giving away tshirts to students. They offered a one day $9 flash sale to all fans. Full credit to the administration for trying.
MJAlltheWay24 Posted January 11, 2019 Author Posted January 11, 2019 I think the weather is going to hold out and not affect tonight.
Oldbird Posted January 11, 2019 Posted January 11, 2019 Looks like NKU opened up another section (at least partially). Section 204, the top corner above where NKU comes out looks to be about 1/2 sold. If students do their part and show, as well as, they get a good walk out, the crowd should be really solid.
MJAlltheWay24 Posted January 11, 2019 Author Posted January 11, 2019 Just got word from my vending boss that the gates are opening up at 5:30pm tonight. Usually it's only an hour early.
