College Football Ticket Sales Down This Year, Economy to Blame
by admin on Aug.21, 2009, under Discount Ticket Deals, Entertainment News, Sports News
College football ticket sales are down this year and some athletic departments around the country are scrambling to sell tickets. They have resorted to discounts, promotions and downsizing ticket packages, to encourage people to buy as sales this year have dropped enough for concern this year.
Spartans Football
Some of the hardest hit teams this year are the Michigan State Spartans, Tennessee Vols, Florida State Seminoles, and Purdue Boilermakers, where season ticket sales are down 17% this year.
It’s not bad everywhere though. Texas Longhorns, Alabama Crimson Tide, Ohio State Buckeyes, Florida Gators and Oklahoma Sooners are reporting strong sales this year, but they have not had problems with ticket sales in the past, even during tough times.
You can buy College Football Tickets online now.
