Per Greder:
Attendance at the 48th Rose Bowl was pegged at 98,214 fans, or “slightly under the ancient saucer’s capacity,” per a Pioneer Press report from Pasadena. The famous venue’s maximum attendance at the time was 100,807 and ticket prices had a face value of $6, with some on a $2 markup. In previous years, some end zone seats were going for $14, one dispatch said.

Gophers football: 1962 Rose Bowl was a program pinnacle but came after protests and trash talk
Ohio State turned down the bid and demonstrations followed, while columnists backed off from hot takes from the U’s 1961 loss.
