I think SMU keeps putting UConn tix on StubHub, my buddy gets a report and there's been about 50 new tickets a day on StubHub for the past week. That's extremely unusual, brokers would've listed forever ago. Just wondered if anyone tried to order and if there were tickets left.

Anyone tried by chance? Another 100 tickets were listed today. Majority on there have been listed less than 24 hours. SMU has gotta be releasing them, nobody has that many tickets and holds them to the last day, not for 7 days in a row.

Another part that doesn't make sense is that Vivid is their official broker partner. Vivid would've listed their brokering seats ages ago and wouldn't list on another secondary website.

Just called the box office and got 2 tickets for section 215. Those were apparently the only seats that were still available.

lol that's about what I figured, I'd like to say I'm surprised. SMU has to be leaking them on secondary sites and selling inventory. At any rate, thanks for the heads up. Glad you were able to get em, hopefully get a Pony win now.

They have been pushing people to turn them back in if they can't use them - my guess is there are some guys that thought this sounded like a great valentines evening, and got instructed otherwise.

Very strong theory.

I've been hearing the theory from people over the course of the season but it's pretty obvious with this game. The game was supposedly sold out for months yet huge blocks of tickets are going up in the days prior. Seems pretty strange doesn't it?

I bought in 212 for the UH game, around row 8-9, and the season ticket holder three seats away said those seats are never used. Maybe released on Stubhub for this game or enough demand to push $50 face value tix.

214-215 are where most block and visiting seats are. $30 face.
