There were still a good 150-200 students in line. They told everyone to go to the SunDome and pay the 30$...so it dosen't sound like they will be ordering any more.

That's 1/3 of tickets!! After yesterday, I would have thought that SG would have placed a cap on the number of tickets one can buy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A $5,880 profit. Nice!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ONLY reason SG bought and sold those tickets was that we wanted to create a want... and need for those tickets. Without those tickets 1250 students may not have decided to attend the game. The greeks did nothing wrong. We ENCOURAGED student organizations, and es that includes greeks, to get togeather and get tickets. The first plan only allowed student orgs to purchaise the tickets anyway! Either way... if he found 270 greeks that wanted to go to the game... then so be it. Thanks to his organizational efforts, he got 250 people to attend the game! Next time we do this, get a group togeather and buy tickets! We WOULD have bought more tickets... but we were restricted by several policies/rules... and even UCF I believe. They now know that students will go. Individual greeks will get the tickets, they just got smart and got one person to do it for all of them. ANYONE could have banded togeather and get to the desk early. I gave everyone on this board the time frame... 1pm to 2 pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
