"Football season ticket sales for 2008 are on pace with last year's totals, according to Joe Hornstein, UCF associate athletic director for marketing and communications. To date, UCF has sold more than 20,000 season tickets, which mirrors the amount sold at the same time a year ago.

UCF sold approximately (read:  less than) 23,000 season tickets in 2007."

So with roughly a month to go, you're 2500-2900 off of last year's total... and you don't have the Texas Game or the new stadium as the big draw.

I guess now we'll see just how many Texas fans bought season tix last year and won't be renewing them before the first game...

I don't get it.  How do they bring 35K to Rayjay last year but only have 20K season tickets?

They actually calculate season tickets using the elusive Canine method of mathematics.

Every one person who actually attends counts as 7.

Like USF's numbers have been dead on....jeesh.  Just a note...for those that don't know...UCF only has room for 25k season tickets....the rest go to students, faculty, corps..etc.  And we filled up that stadium more than once last year....and Texas fans didn't come to those, either.

Hey its your fans that believe they outnumbered us at RayJay in 2005 and were 1:1 with us in 2007.  Oh yeah, that you guys will have 35K at Miami this year.  You guys were the one whining about the fact that UCF counted butts in seats and that USF cheated by counting tickets distributedn yet UCF quietly began counting tickets distributed 2 years ago.  You guys were the ones over here putting down our attendance and how our fans travel and how we did not deserve BCS, blah blah blah.

So you're **** skippy that we'll have a laugh at your expense when your site reports lower ticket sales than last season notwithstanding that they reported to the press increased sales of 451 seats.  Guess not.  We'll have another laugh when KL runs over here with some link to Brett's column from 2004 trying to tell us how poor USF's attendance was.

A number of season tix purchased last year were UCF fans who already had season tix, got another block, sold the Texas ticket, made a profit on the season(as the Texas game was selling for over 200) and didn't renew the 2nd block.

All things considered, there doesn't seem to be a sophomore slump.
