Finally! An administration that gets it! They understand that our crackebox stadium is an embarrassment and that we are behind the times.

LEGENDARY

They're going to add 20,000 seats so they can sell more tickets to opposing fans.

Blame UTAD

Expect 25 to 30k strong from Rebel Nation to be in your stands for the season opener. I'll be buying through Vanderbilt.

That would put it at 60k which quite frankly will never nor should it happen.

The 100k seat stadium is stupid and unnecessary. One of the reasons I hate turner field. It's too big. 50k is too much for baseball just like 100k is too much for football.

If you're buying season tickets be prepared to make a donation to the NCC. And ticket prices have gone up. And I'll bet my left nut there won't be 25k thereb

I meant i'll be buying Vanderbilt fan's tickets up starting asap. If the game is on Saturday as planned you'll definitely be without a left nut. If it's on a Thursday night you still have a decent chance of being with one nut but I still expect 15-18k atleast. When Ole Miss is winning we have one of the better traveling fan bases in the SEC/Country. With all of this hype and momentum i'd be disappointed to see less than 20k at the game if it is indeed on it's planned day of Saturday. Nashville will be invaded by Rebels regardless.

That's just it. There won't be 20k tickets on the market. You'll get the normal 6k allotment but there won't be 14k tickets available in the secondary market. I'm sure there will be some but nowhere near 14k

Vandy finally selling that stadium out? I recall South Carolina filling it up pretty good this past season.

You recall wrong. South Carolina traveled well. If say 10-12k there. And they have a bigger fan base than y'all do.

12k out of what 45k? decent chunk of your stadium. As I said when we are winning we have one of the best traveling fanbases. expect at the very least 15k, hold me to it.

12k out of 40k.

I love how you're back tracking. At first it was 25-30k. Now you're saying 15k. Just know that season tickets and students will make up AT LEAST 26k. That leaves 14k at the most. 6k of that is allotted to the visiting school.
