Bet you that ISU averages closer to 60,000 average paid attendance this year rather than 50,000.
ISU should be at capacity with the prices they charge. Season tickets for $175, that is affordable as hell. That is 6 saturdays of supposed entertainment for cheap, cheap, cheap. Throw on top of that ISU is offering a 3 pack of tickets for $99 or $125.
Jack Trice should be sold out every game with prices like that. Fans should be on waiting lists to get tickets when these are the prices that are charged. So no, I'm not gonna bet that ISU will be closer to 50k rather than 60k paid attendance. The real question is why don't more Clone fans show up at these prices?
