Football vs. Basketball Question

[RGV Pony]

Out of curiousity...over the next 5 years, which do you think will happen first, or is more likely....

A. Ford Stadium sell out for a game (NOT counting Tx Tech or Tx A&M filling the place...something along the lines of 9/2/2000 vs. Kansas), OR

B. Moody selling out for a game

I'd have done it like one of the other "poll" questions, but I don't know how to set up same.

Moody will sell out first. Texas is, and always will be, football country. But in basketball, one or two great players can totally re-direct a team's fortunes. If Coach Tubbs is successful landing a couple of truly exceptional players (especially local players), they could make the team take a huge step forward, and bring their local fans with them. (And I've seen Moody full - it's a beautiful thing.) Say he gets Byron Eaton or the center from South Oak Cliff or the forward from Skyline .... if they're as good as advertised, they won't take long to lift the team up a notch. Then watch the ticket turnstiles spin.

Didn't Moody sell out for the TT game one Knight a couple of years ago when Bobby came to town? Copeland messed up last December, and charged $30 a ticket so all the TT fans couldn't come.

There is probably not a sports operation in this country that does not fluctuate their ticket prices when a marquee opponent comes to town. If that is being "Copeland" than I guess every sports operation around is "Copeland" including all of the major sports teams in the D/FW area.

They are "Copeland" when they over price their goods, and about 4000 seats rot, and have to be thrown out.
