So true. Doesnt help that Spokanes not much of a sports town either.

Anyways I think NDSU should be more concerned about ball control than season ticket holders...

ASU hovers right around 10,000. We have half-season packages which are very popular.

Wouldn't surprise me a bit that thousands of Fargoites would show up for something as retarded as an outdoor hockey game.

Montana's stops just short of 20,000 and that's a FORCED stop. They could sell 'em all if they wanted to. :coffee:
Haven't you heard? The waiting list is no more in Missoula, you can call today and get season tickets
:rofl: :rofl:

Actually, I heard of people doing that the past couple years. I never understood the "waiting list" thing unless you wanted to change seats or get a group together.

It looks like the Spiders are up about 600 season tickets over last year to 4,600. Last year they capped sales at 4,000, as they were not completely sure how many the students would take, and how many might be needed for visitors and general university use.

There is still a waiting list ...always will be one. FOR GSA AND NEZ tickets. This is just the first year that random seats are available...but the NEZ/GSA are still waiting list.
Oh well if that's the case, MSU has had a waiting list for years too, people wanting to change to another location or move seats together. Thats a pretty low bar you set to call it a waiting list. :lol: :lol:

Article on Montana season tickets 07/24/2011... (explanation of the "waiting list")

http://missoulian.com/news/state-and-re ... 03286.html
The University of Montana has turned its lengthy waiting list for Grizzly football season tickets into a wish list.

According to the university's website, the school did away with its waiting list. Beginning July 1, season tickets were sold on a first-come, first-served basis.

The waiting list was in existence for more than a decade and at times included as many as 500 names, said Jim O'Day, UM athletic director.

The university has slightly more than 19,000 season tickets available.

That demand for seats in Washington-Grizzly Stadium was part of what UM took into consideration when expanding the football complex in 2003 and again in 2008.

This past May and June, UM made a concerted effort to "clean up" the waiting list by contacting everyone, which was no easy feat as there were people on the list who had moved or changed their phone numbers, O'Day said.

UM tried to sort out who wanted season tickets, regardless of their location in the stadium, versus those who only wanted specific seats.

That first group is much easier to serve, and the university can accommodate many of those requests, O'Day said.

About 3 percent to 4 percent of Grizzly football season tickets are not renewed each year. That's roughly 570 seats.

This year, tickets for those seats went on sale on a first-come, first-served basis beginning July 1. That first day, UM sold $16,000 worth of season tickets.

But some tickets remain.

***

The second group of would-be ticket holders is tougher to serve. Those folks are looking to sit in a certain section and, in some cases, certain rows and seat numbers.

And those folks are going on the new wish list.

"There's this misperception that it's impossible to get (football season tickets)," O'Day said.

The issue is where you want to sit, and those who will be happy anywhere are much more likely to find a seat.

"A lot of the people on the list wanted specific seats for specific areas and they would only come due periodically," he said.

O'Day recommends anyone interested in football season tickets in a certain area to buy tickets regardless of their location in the stadium. Priority for seat swapping will be given to current season ticket holders, he said.

UM is also somewhat limited by the number of seats it can sell to season ticket holders. For example, the university has an agreement with Montana State University to offer the Bobcats 750 tickets when the cross-state game is held in Missoula.

There were very few season tickets left as of Friday afternoon, but O'Day said they'll remain on sale until Aug. 1, when single game tickets will go on sale. There are a few football season tickets left in the Grizzly Scholarship Association area and some in other areas. Those interested in purchasing football season tickets should contact the Adams Center box office.

Football season ticket holders have from January to April to renew their tickets each year. In May and June, UM figures out which seats are available for the following season. Beginning July 1 of each year, season tickets will go on sale under the new system.

Over 10% of Montana and Washington residence have used illicit drugs in the last month, 6% in North Dakota. Montana and Washington are in the top 10, while North Dakota is in the lower 10 percentage of Illicit drug use. I doubt many crackheads could manage their life well enough to take care of season tickets and get to games.

I think I-90 is the reason for this... Huge drug trafficking interstate that skips ND.

If it did pass through ND, I think you would have similar results as us. :nod:

Don't even talk about SD. They have the "Wyld Boyz" controlling the market with an iron fist :lol:

On a tangent... How did the "Wyld Boyz" even get on the show Gangland BTW? Did they contact them on their own :roll: That episode was the worst and funniest I have seen in awhile...
