On the HC board, some are talking about attending their game at Duke this coming season. My recollection is that when we played at Cameron we were allocated very few tickets (even with school out of session) and that tickets from scalpers were not cheap.
My questions:
1. How many tickets was Bucknell allocated, either counting those for players/coaches/admin, or excluding those?
2. Any idea how much a ticket for a decent seat was from a scalper?

And that was with no students there. I wonder what a pair would cost with school in session?

I got a pair of tickets through Duke. ONLY FOR GAMES WHERE THE DUKIES ARE ON BREAK, Duke puts 100-200 tickets on sale sometime in October or November. They keep it lowly publicized, so you need to call their ticket office for info. Then, call like a madman the morning they go on sale. I tried for an hour before finally getting through. Tickets sold out 15 min later. They are on sale by phone only.

sorry for late response, but was travelling last week. if it helps here's what i know:
was told that Bucknell received an allotment of 100 tix. asked for more, but were told no school got more than that. this amount was total, after team and other related parties got their tickets, there were maybe 30 to 40 remaining for distribution. at this point i had no expectation of making the cut to get any tickets.
then things get a bit hazy. about a week before the game i did get a ticket through BU and at the game, there had to be several hundred BU fans in the section behind the Bucknell bench. i suspect that somehow the school was able to procure additional tickets, but i don't know how or how many.
