    Students actually waited in line for tickets? What a bunch of morons. You could literally walk up to the ticket booth five minutes before kickoff and get tickets to Reser. To my knowledge, they only sold that thing out once since the expansion, and that was for the Civil War last year when 1/3 of the stadium was Duck fans.

    Hell, they couldn't even sell the stadium out for a nationally televised ESPN game against #1 USC last year.

    It's Dad's Weekend against UW. There should be a good crowd.

    I've watched every OSU game on TV this year and I've been very disappointed in the lack of support for the Beavs. I see the top corners of the stadium empty, and it is pathetic.

    If I were living up in Oregon, I would be at those games and those OSU alumni that are in Oregon should be ashamed of themselves. With the run OSU has put together over the last 8-10 years, we should be able to sellout 45k seats every game, and at the very least, every Pac-10 game.

    Soda always so obsessed with Beaver news. Never seen someone get so riled up by another school/fanbase/team without them trying at all - it's like this one Laker fan on Niketalk. Pretty hilarious.

    You do know that the sooner you get them, the better the seats, right?

    I live thirty minutes from the stadium. Unless I'm given free tickets or there's room on the party bus, I won't go anywhere near Corvallis on game day. Traffic sucks, parking sucks, walking twenty blocks sucks, and so on.

    Oregon St. is 2nd in the Pac-10 in terms of avg. % capacity of stadium filled. So, not too worried, especially in this economy.

    But thanks for sharing, Soda. Some day you'll admit you're really an OSU fan.

    If you go look at ncaa.org you can see all attendance figures broken down by a variety of factors, including average as a % of capacity.

    Yes, Oregon is #1.

    I was talking about the people in line BTW. Handing out free samples is more of a Lewis and Clark Thang.

    I still don't understand why they expanded that thing when they can't even sell it out. :dunno:

    Second smallest stadium in the conference, 60ish miles from Portland, respectful run of success the last 10 years. Should be a recipe for constant sellouts.

    I do agree, it should be sold out for every game. But you have to keep in mind that the Beavs arent the "sexy" team to root for. The majority of local Duck fans are bandwagon fans who only root for the Ducks because they are the "sexy/cool" team to root for... they have zero affiliation with the university. In fact, this week at work, due to the Stanford loss, I have received many more blanket emails from Ducks fans looking to sell their tix to this weekends game.
