Here are my numbers as of midnight tonight (6-17-09)...
Total seats remaining: 244 (-10 from midnight 6/16)
Total lower level seats remaining: 70 (-4 from midnight 6/16)
Total upper level seats remaining: 174 (-6 from midnight 6/16)
Sections sold out: 16 (+2 from midnight 6/16; not counting student sections)
Sections with the most seats remaining:
-235 (12 seats remaining)
-231 (12 seats remaining)
-103 (10 seats remaining)
-209 (10 seats remaining)
-101 (9 seats remaining)
-219 (9 seats remaining)
-236 (9 seats remaining)
Premium Seating Still Available: 54 seats (-1 from 6/16)
$500 Seating: 20 seats (-2 from 6/16)
$250 Seating: 25 seats (+1 from 6/16)
$100 Seating: 9 seats (no change from 6/16)
Some statistical notes since Friday:
-Yikes...well, we have our answer to whether folks would be willing to select single seats, and the answer was a resounding NO. Only 10 seats came off the board today. Now, a few more were selected, but as some people mentioned earlier in the day, there were a few seats that were re-released to the public, causing a few sections to actually GAIN seats from yesterday. In the end, though, anyone hoping for the single seats to just disappear were wrong, at least for today.
-As you can see above, the premium seating has all but come to a halt. Only two seats were actually selected out of the premium seating today (both from the $500 sections), but a seat in section 239 re-appeared, causing a net loss of only one seat from last night to tonight. Someone didn't pay their bill...tsk, tsk.
-The number of seats selected today has dropped pretty dramatically as the days have gone on. Here are the number of seats selected in the last few days:
-Wednesday: 504
-Thursday: 464
-Friday: 321
-Monday: 170
-Tuesday: 10
-This was a tremendous drop from any other day. As I mentioned before, this is most likely due to the single-seat theory; however, there could be a few other things at play here:
1) Folks talked to the ticket office, and were told that these single seats are going to be combined in the near future and were told to wait if they wanted seats together
2) The waiting list came to and end more quickly than any of us thought
-Either of these theory's could be cleared up by someone either still on the waiting list, or someone that selected today. All I know is that those seats still exist, and they're still up for grabs tonight.
-This begs the question: How willing would YOU be to select a single seat, not knowing who you'd be sitting by during the game, even in a new stadium? Having done it in the past, I would, and I would assume most of the GH collective would as well, but it's a question that begs an answer, nonetheless. Or, a more pointed question: What's more important to you, going to Gopher football, or sitting with your friends??
-The next update will occur around Midnight tomorrow night...hopefully with better numbers!
