I just realized y'all are talking about Fox and Co.. I didn't know they had changed the name? Did Fox leave?
Has LaMon sold their 15K ticket allotment yet?

They came damn close to selling out their ~30k seat stadium for a regular season game with Baylor. I don't see any reason why they couldn't draw at least 30k for their first bowl game 1.5 hours away from "home".
That's why the comments about cheap tickets and t-shirts was made. Anytime they have a big crowd they run all kinds of things that devalue their ticket. 30,000 is 30,000 but if they have to pay full price and travel even a small distance some that showed for Baylor won't show for the bowl.
I still think since it is their first winning season in FBS that the place is probably half full.

Stop perpetuating the lie.
Last count they posted was 7,500 tickets. Not sure where they sit now. This would be somethign an intrepid reporter could find out and use as a talking point for thier local radio show.
Monroe news last night made a big production standing outside "NLU" ticket office saying get your tickets fast, already 7000 sold, bla bla bla.....
Who can go to a Bowl Game mid-afternoon on a work day? I'm glad it wasn't Tech, because I couldn't even watch it on TV, much less attend it.
