There are zillion alums in Houstgone area, plus 2 zillion TEch grads in Texas. Its a shorter trip for for a lot of folks.

Damn, I have 5 tickets out "in the cloud". Just received my 4 extra A&M tickets. Damn. Damn. No football yet. The Southeast corner looks like the A&M corner!!!!!!!!!!

The seating at Robertson stadium isn't very high.

This is what your view should look like in the 224/225 area.

How many tickets did they give us?

So how can we get tickets now and guarantee that we'll still be close to the LA Tech section?

Go to the UH Ticket Office website and request tickets in Section 224.

I believe we initially requested 2000. Which is the same we did for USM last year. CUSA schools should be taking notice of how we travel. They can count on our games averaging about 500 to 1000 more fans than typical conference matchups.

This is going to be a great game. I'm not surprised there is so much excitement over this one. It was great last year too. We owe them this time.

I just ordered two in Section 224. Thank you for that link. That was very quick and easy. Can't freakin wait.

Section 224, Row K, Seats 11, 12, and 13!

I made sure and got in section 222 where I can run my mouth

Not sure, but if i did my math correctly, each of the old sections of Robertson Stadium contains approximately 1200-1300 seats.

Here's the link to the Stubhub offerings today.

So did Tech sell all the tickets that were given or all that were asked for?

It's my understanding we sold all that was given ( all I know it was sec.225) and I have no idea how many seats that actually was. I believe we pretty much taken over sec.224 and have some in 223. Now does all that equate to 500 or 2500, I have no idea. I was told we were only given a few hundred. No, I don't know if that was 200 or 800.

One of the Houston posters on CUSABBS confirmed for me that each section seats between 1000 and 1300. Like you said, did we get ALL of 225, or just a part of it? I guess we'll know in a week. Everybody should wear BLUE!!! that would look awesome against all their red.

We were given all we asked for initially. I have no clue if changes were made after that. Initially we asked for 1500-2000 if memory serves and I think closer to 2000.

I 'll be there in blue and I'll try to get my K State buddy who's going with me to wear blue, too. They had a pitiful crowd in Ruston last year.

I disagree. My family sits in the visitors section at JAS, bc there is almost always plenty of extra elbow room for kids to wiggle and squirm. This was not the case, however, at the Houston game.

The Cougars brought, by far, more visiting fans than any other team last year.

Me and a few fraternity brothers decided today to make the trip down there. Dont have tickets, probably gonna stub hub.

I believe we will. At one time I counted over 2500 alumni from the alumni directory who lived within 100 miles of Houston. That was about ten years ago, so it's probalby higher now. The last time we played Rice (on a monday night at Reliant after the game had been changed twice) we probably out numbered the Rice fans. I remember a good crown the last time we played Houston, too.

Correction -- over 3600 from the 2005 Alumni directory.

If it is just a pic I can zoom in to infinity but when embedded in a thread it will not zoom.

That sounds great. Back in the day, regional road trips were expected entertainment instead of staying in town. And, Houston, with safer 4-lane highways as the conduit, is a regional road trip.

Are you talking ticket "holders" or actual butts in seats? I have heard that there may be a difference. ;)

Yeah, the good ole record season tickets sales thread you reference. Sometimes this site can be as entertaining as the game itself. But in this instance, actual butts in the seats. Watching on TV it looked liked a good Tech turnout.

Attachment 9765Here's the concentration of blue.
