35% of Crowd in Columbus Vols fans. That’s insane!

[Rocky Top T]

its literally just this guy guessing. lets calm down on the 35% stuff until we actually see something to back it up.

I agree, I don't think it no where near that many. I'm guessing 7500

I really don't know but with the number of listings for re-sale that has been available it could easily be a lot more of that. There have been 10k to 15k tickets, maybe more, listed for re-sale.

If folks are holding out for the possibility of going to the Rose Bowl, then folks may pass on this.

But we have not been in a championship / playoff game since 1998. It is NOT just another game. Win - we move on, lose and the football season is done. I'm going because the next game isn't promised and logistically it is possible to drive there and back comfortably within the weekend.

 

[ALLVOL 4LIFE]

lol 35k is not a realistic guess.

15-20K would be incredible

I wouldn’t underestimate this fan base, especially after their AD put out the call to try and stop the flow of Orange

 

[BernardKingGOAT]

I will be surprised if it's 35000. 20000 wouldn't surprise me

 

[Volswin98]

Well, I just bought tickets so add two more to the count

 

[Vfl2407]

Even if they have a blimp for this game, we wont know how many Vol fans are there.
The wx forecast calls for upper teens that night. All fans will have on overcoats or parkas of some sort.
Who owns a heavy Scarlet or Orange coat?
I don’t.

I got one, and I will have it on

 

[Unconditional Surrender]

I wasn't even thinking about going until the OSU AD said that, but now I'm GOING!

Yes. You ARE going!

20k. It's happening.

Why should we calm down? Hype is good.

Just wear an orange gloves and head covering. That will do it.

 

[I Love Lamp]

It’s honestly hilarious how out of touch OSU fanbase is with how well we travel. We flooded Tiger Stadium 2 years ago for God’s sake..

Time to send these bastards to hell where they belong

Time to send these bastards to hell where they belong

Well that escalated quickly

 

[DaddyChad]

Should be able to get tickets from a few Michigan fans as well.

Since they own that stadium.

In fact we ought to invite a few Michigan fans, they do enjoy watching Ohio State lose.

 

[HighWaterVol]

I know I've seen a lot of people here saying the cold won't matter but check out the "Real Feel" at the bottom of the page from Accuweather for Columbus. Don't forget your serious coat if you plan on being at the game.

I think it is a hard sale to fire Day, even with his losses to Michigan. He is winning 10 games every year. I do think it is easier to get wins at Ohio State with their setup but you can't take 10-2 seasons with playoff appearances for granted.

My grandma could coach OSU to a 10-2 season.

Time to send these bastards to hell where they belong

Lol, woah dude. Let’s take it down several notches. This is why they don’t call Texas-Oklahoma the Red River Shootout anymore.

Well that escalated quickly

Homie saw the brawl after the Michigan game and said “We can do better than that.”

Michigan fans and Vol fans will be cheering each other on this postseason. Big Orange and Big Blue, who’da thunk it?

 

[volmanbill]

I have a great friend in Columbus, I asked him about tickets and he offered his pair for $10k. Evidently many OSU fans do not care to go to the game and are trying to make a payday off the game tickets. First, that is a great thing for Vols fans that want to travel. Secondly, that tells me even they feel OSU may get ran out of the stadium by a great Vols team featuring a three headed monster run game. I can't wait! Go Vols!!!

I hope you told him “no thanks”, that you could get 2 on row 6 on the 50 for 4k.

Me either, I'll be wearing an orange beenie/toboggon.

We will have an idea when they have the ball. Would love for them not to be able to hear their QB pre-snap because of the orange noise! lol

According to Seat Geek, 42% of ticket sales are from the Volunteer state.

Is it actually happening?

What is a serious coat? I'm not sure I own one. LOL - but I do plan to bundle up and take a blanket, gloves, earmuffs, hand warmers etc.

 

[Shaun1985]

I'm seeing people who rarely go to games in Neyland who live in East TN buy tickets to go to the shoe. It's just crazy. I don't know about 35k but id imagine this is up there with the most visiting fans to pack the shoe.
