2nd and Long - if you look on Ticketmaster right now there are only a few sections available to buy tickets. Have all the rest of the seats/sections been blocked for general public purchase including the GA end zone? Why don't we sell the grass end zone for $10? Looks like the other tickets have been jacked up to $20 a piece.

You misinterpret. Operation sellout was Turner and Orsini not getting us to an AQ conference.

I'll check with the school and follow up tomorrow.

I responded via PM. In summary, we have blocked sections for operation sell out tickets that have already been sold. There are no general admission in the end zone, and we don't sell grass until all the seats are sold. Not sure about any tickets getting jacked up.

Reason GiddyUp is asking is we need to let the billboard guy know today. Last time we put Tix 15 and up. If they're 20& up, we need to change it

If you do live in Peru and can't make it to the game , you should make a contribution to Operation Sell Out, so, when you stream the game on the ticket, you can get the full effect of the crowd noise.

*Someone please translate to Spanish.

There was no increase. $20 is the single ticket price and has been. the lower ticket price is a group rate. We hashed it out over email but forgot to bring it back here.

Did my share and bought extras. And I will have them scanned so they will count as seats occupied. Wish I could bring more folks with me but not much interest in SMU here in the heart of the Beloved Razorbacks' fanbase.
