NDSU, UND Football Tickets Update

GRAND FORKS, N.D. (AP Aug 2, 2013) – University of North Dakota officials say the team has sold its most season tickets for football in a decade.
 
     The school had orders for 4,455 season tickets by the middle of the day Thursday. It sold 4,359 of them a year ago.
 
     The team held a special “30 minutes or less” promotion Wednesday, when players and coaches were required to deliver season tickets to buyers in less than half an hour, or the tickets were free. All of the deliveries beat the clock.
 
     The school sold 57 tickets during the promotion.
 
     The home schedule has Valparaiso on August 29th, South Dakota State on September 7th, Montana on September 14th, Montana State on September 28th, Eastern Washington on October 12th, Sacramento State on October 19th, and Northern Colorado on November 9th.

     Bison athletic director Gene Taylor says he expected demand to be at an all-time high this year for the two-time defending Football Championship Subdivision winners.
 
     Taylor says additional reserved and standing room tickets may become available on the Friday of each game week.
 
     The Bison have home games against Ferris State on September 7th, Delaware State on September 21st, Northern Iowa on October 5th, Missouri State on October 12th, Illinois State on November 9th and South Dakota on November 23rd.
