UNLV has two weeks to find a way to completely fill the bottom section and move up to the second deck. They need to make it a priority like they did for the MWC championship, but now UNLV has a #25 to put next to that marketing for tickets! Time to push the hotel/casino industry to get involved with purchasing of tickets in bulk for employees in the corner or upstairs.
 
I wonder what the logistics are to open more seats. Surely it isnt a spur of the moment thing they can just do a day or 2 in advance with workers, etc. I feel like that Syracuse game would be a good game to open another 10-15k or so seats. Game is already about sold out. Large # of syracuse fans coming. Should we beat Fresno, we will be top 25 in all polls. Syracuse should be top 25 as well. Great opportunity to get to 40k+ fans and a lot of those average fans out to a game who's interest is peaked witha top 25 matchup both ways. Could be a huge opportunity for the program.

It is actually just a spur of the moment thing that can be done with a couple of days notice. Last year they opened up the second section when ticket sales went really well for the MWC championship with only a few days notice, actually only opening the second section one day before the game.
 
No reason why there shouldn't be at least 30k there. First game UNLV will play with a # next to it's name... I would've done lots of things I would actually never do to have had any semblance of a football program when I was in school...

Has anyone heard how the seat sales went with the $25 tickets? Or how many tickets have been sold/given away, total? I'm not sure when the students are able to get their tickets, or if those are already accounted for.

It hard to tell if it made a big difference looking at the number of seats that are still up for sale. It is nice that they still have over a week to sell tickets, because they will need all of that time if they want a chance to sell out the lower bowl section.
