    LOL, What? ISU sold 6,000 tickets for its Independence Bowl appearance. The Cyclones sold 2,000 tickets to a 2002 Humanitarian Bowl game in Boise, Idaho, 8,500 to a 2001 Independence Bowl game. Iowa State says it's sold 4,800 tickets to the Pinstripe Bowl

    That is what I am talking about when I say that for ISU to improve its program, they need fan support home and away. If you aren't going to an away game because there is a good chance that ISU will lose, and many of the fans feel that way then it is that kind of attitude that will keep ISU were...

    Yes and they have been for a few weeks. I think July 11. On the first day, there were several thousand left for that game and seats together. I figured that game would sell out quickly as ISU fans would gobble them up. I am sure some ISU fans did buy some but I expected the game to be sold out...

    A few thousand is far less than 70,000. Yes they will. Many of the season ticket holders would buy tickets to the ISU game in Ames if given the opportunity. Why do you think Pollard made it almost impossible for Iowa fans to get tickets in the past? Because he knew if he just offered single game...

    Iowa fans aren't buying tickets so why aren't ISU fans snatching up the tickets to the Iowa game? Maybe they did but there are still tickets left. Iowa fans opened the door for ISU fans. If ISU had 3000 tickets left when Iowa plays in Ames, Iowa fans would buy them. Pollard effectively blocked...

    I doubt it too. But why aren't they buying tickets to the Iowa game?

    I just looked online and while there are quite a few sections left with tickets remaining for the ISU game, they are all single seats now. Be interesting to see how many were bought by Iowa fans and how many by ISU.

    I was just curious why there were tickets left for the ISU game. I would have thought ISU fans would have snatched them up. I know when the game is in Ames, Iowa fans would buy any single game tickets and that is why Pollard didn't allow it to happen.

    By giving every student who buys a ticket free tuition for them and their first born. LOL.

    It's a pretty bad schedule. I have always been one who thought we should be seeking out higher quality opponents. Obviously, North Texas did well last year and they hooked up with them because of Danny Mac, but that is just an ugly home schedule with no excitement at all. Can't see Iowa getting...

    I am talking about the individual tickets for the Iowa-ISU game. I am surprised that ISU fans didn't buy all those single game tickets up. They had a great opportunity to double the number of fans in the stadium that day. I guess I don't understand why ISU fans wouldn't follow ISU on the road...

    Why wouldn't you buy tickets? It was ISU's opportunity to snatch up the tickets to make noise at Kinnick. I agree Pollard is trying to build the program with the upgrades etc. But yes ISU fans could do more. Selling out every game on the home schedule would help generate more revenue. This will...

    Haha yep it is. But all students are eligible now. The catch is now you have to DELIVER your name and info to the ticket office by August 5, well before students are in Iowa City for class. You'd think they would have to give them an option to mail or email it as well. According the release...

    IDK, I've been gone all day. Haven't looked at any news. I agree...it is ridiculous. And to think people like the infamous JWR were mocking Pollard. I learned long ago don't throw rocks in glass houses.

    And they were charming the students with free tuition but now since that deal got nixed, they aren't even letting the students in on the new ploy. Has to be FULL priced tickets. Can't even use them for the cheaper kids' tickets for the first couple games. This promo does not impress me. If you...

    Even though I read the comments, I am still surprised ISU fans didn't snatch them up. The first day they went on sale there were blocks of seats so a number of ISU fans could have sat together. Maybe if you supported your team more, the program would improve. Most of you know Iowa's story. It...

    I haven't supported Barta for a loooooooooong time. He makes the shyster Bowlsby look good. Oh, how I long for the days of Bump and Christine.

    They must have given up hope on selling more tickets to students. They are now offering refunds to those who bought expecting to be in the drawing for free tuition as well. And there are also tickets available in the non-student sections as well.

    Yah, I posted this on the free tuition thread. Got an email from them early this AM about this. Buy four tickets at FULL price and receive a whooping $2.50 off per gallon of gas. Does not include buying the kids' tickets for first couple games. Starts today so if you bought tickets before, you...
