Music City Bowl is sold out

and im surprised MTSU number is even 2.7k, I had heard under 1000 not too long ago

[Joe]

Check that You are correct RT, when I got this number there were still some avail. Thanks!

That is a big improvement for the Music City Bowl if they sell out compared to last year. I remember seeing so many empty seats for that game in Nashiville last year.

On another board, when Kentucky had a shot at playing in the Liberty Bowl, I mentioned how UK would bring a TON of fans wherever they go, since UK hasn't gone bowling since 1999 season.

They key for minor bowls (like Music City, Liberty, etc...) is to hopefully grab teams that are on their way UP (i.e. haven't been to ANY bowl over the past few years), vs being stuck with a team that is on their way down.

Excited fan bases will travel... (remember when UK played in their first Jan 1 Bowl game in like 50 years when they went to Tampa after the 1998 season? Tix prices were SKY HIGH...but every and any UK fan was trying to gobble them up!)

[Joe]

We were discussing this a few months ago. Someone said Ohio State fans were the most committed in the country, and to an extent it is true. However Kentucky brings 55,000 a game to see a team that 4-7 was a promising season. That is committment.

South Carolina is a close second, they bring 75-80k to see a team that for decades was horrid.

UK fans no matter what sport are some of the most committed in teh country and the Music City Bowl ran to grab this team.

[bullwark]

UK fans have always travelled well, remember the OUTBACK Bowl a few years ago, they had more fans there than Penn State.

[Bull Matrix]

Pretty much both UL and UK have great support. It helps when there are no professional teams though in that state. Ditto for South Carolina as well because both Clemson and South Carolina have strong support. It is just the way it is being that fans need to get their sports fix through some avenue.

[Joe]

It has nothing to do with professional teams, Lexington is less than hour away from Cincinnati and several of the Bengals season ticket holders live there. In fact the Bengals train right outside of Lexington.

They just have generations of fans committed to their teams.

I bought 8 tickets for the OUtback Bowl!  I can't wait!!
