Not arguing, you should know. But if Jacksonville holds 69k and your stadium holds 92.7k, and UF gets half the tix in Jacksonville, how is there not a ticket crunch? Somebody has to be missing out. You damn sure couldn't easily get tickets to Birmingham Iron Bowls.

It's porbably different because our game is 6 hours from campus so not everyone is going to want or be able to go, compared to the Iron Bowl where most of the attendeeds likely live within 2 hours and everyone in the state is going to want to go.

Tickets for postseason games in Atlanta for instance you do have to have an extremely high amount of points so I guess that could be an accurate comparison. But as things are now the UF game is a lot easier to get tickets to then most of our other away games.

1) this isnt legion field. There are 83,000 seats for the game.
2) there are a ton of people who tailgate and dont enter the game. The tailgates are awesome and fun. I know plenty who go down for the party and watch the games happily at the tailgate. And ive known several who had tickets but passed out before they could get inside.
