Soooooo, who IS going to the Rustled Athletic Bowl?

4 of us will be there. I ordered my tickets through the Hurricane office ($77 a pop), but they didn't tell me the section/row. Said they were mailing them out on the 18th.

I want so badly to go. But it is impossible so I donated two tickets. Freet and Wyatt set up a drawing for the tickets and apparently a bunch of students signed up for them. A student who went to every home game this year won them so it was cool to contribute in my own way. I'll be watching online and cheering like mad.
 
I got my three yesterday. Kinda surprised I got the $77 instead of the $82 I tried to order.

From a Louisville TV station:

It may not be a BCS Bowl game, but Louisville fans are making the university look very good to bowl officials with the number of tickets they've purchased for the Russell Athletic Bowl.

One UofL team official told WDRB Sports Louisville had sold "slightly over 11,000 of 12500" allotted to the university by the Russell Athletic Bowl, as of Monday afternoon. That does not include tickets purchased via third party outlets.

Louisville plays Miami Saturday in Orlando.

More than 11,000 is an impressive number, considering the current landscape of struggling bowl game ticket sales.

A Miami assistant athletic director told WDRB Sports Monday, "We are not publicizing how many we have sold." That's usually not a good sign, and Miami is just a 3 1/2 hour drive to the Russell Athletic Bowl in Orlando.

It was this time last year University of Louisville Athletic Director Tom Jurich was telling the media Sugar Bowl officials were thanking him. UofL had "saved" the Sugar Bowl, after the Cardinals had sold almost 15,000 of its ticket allotment.

The attendance for Louisville's win over Florida was 54,178, the lowest for the Sugar Bowl since 1939 when 44,308 watched TCU and Carnegie Mellon at old Tulane Stadium. But the Cards weren't to blame.

Florida sold only about 7,000 of its 17,500 ticket allotment for last year's Sugar Bowl.

This is the second straight year bowl officials will take note of Louisville's impressive ticket sales. There was reason for some to believe Cards fans wouldn't turn out, after not making it back to a BCS Bowl game. That clearly isn't the case.

For a fan base starving for big-time college football, these ticket numbers could pay dividends in the future

I bet they tell the fan where they are sitting before the push the buy button.... Its the one thing I hate about trying to support UM is the Bowl game tickets.
