Semifinal Sell-0ut! Record time...

[go4two]

Damn Russians!

 

[putter]

Well, the NCAA will be happy. Getting 80% of the gate from an sellout even though there will be about 11,000 people in the stands.

Bots are flooding the re-sale sites with 3x to 5x upcharge. We'll have empty seats everywhere thanks to this.

Yeah, no way this game sells out now. Fine f***ing job by the university on this one. I’m sorry, but whoever is in charge of ticket sales is utterly incompetent. I’m seeing tickets online all over the stadium for between $200 and $500…….

Just curious...how should have the university stopped re-sale outlets from buying and re-selling tickets??

 

[go4two]

Did it ever occur to anyone that a great majority of the 19K season ticket holders bought their tickets, thus making the remaining seats very scarce? I'm sure the University will give an update soon on the season tickets holders that exercised their tickets.

Start with using CAPTCHA (Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell if is a real person or a bot)??

I think a lot of you do not understand how ticket bots work. The capture of 1000’s of tickets within 2 minutes would have crashed Griz Tix immediately, it essentially mimics a DDOS attack.

Also - I’m a season ticket holder but isn’t there a maximum seat purchase of 4 tickets through Griz Tix? If that’s the case there is 0 chance a bot would be able to do this - you would need hundreds of unique ID’d Griz Tix accounts, and basically a quantum computer to run that script that quickly.

Then how did seatgeek stubhub vivid seats all end up with hundreds of tix available on their sites by 5:30?

Ticket resellers and more than likely people who renewed their season tickets knowing full and well they would resell them. There were tickets on all 3 sites prior to 5:00pm today. I saw them on Sunday afternoon.

How did one “person “ on Stub get 23 seats together if they only can by 4? And it did crash right away it sounds like with UM saying they were aware of problems

Just checked all 3 sites, and I’m not seeing 23 seats being sold together on any of them, do you have a link to what you’re seeing?

It was on stub about hour ago. Someone else on here mentioned seeing same thing

 

[GrizInTheZoo]

There’s 132 ticket offerings on SeatGeek and even less on StubHub right now. Many of them are the exact same seats.

This isn’t bots, this is Griz fans selling their season tickets.

 

[bigkid]

I wonder how many tickets we’re talking about? Can these season ticket holder’s( who I find need a course in integrity) sell on multiple sites? Is this a combination of things like bots, and season ticket holders? I really have no idea but we had a chance to sell out the stadium and now end up with a goat rope.

So if 19,000 season ticket holders for the most part renewed

3000 for students that the UM secured


How many came up already in GA? 1000 or so?

4000ish left but it seemed many got tickets after a while. So it probably isn’t some horrific amount. Maybe 1500-2500

Come on Brint, no math or logic for this, we are angry and need something to bi+ch about until Sat.

The limit must be more than 4 because i got 6.

But those six were/are not for resale. Just a group of griz fans going together.
