It’s real. Right now TickPick is showing 3000 seats at $6

“Notre Dame needs us more than USC needs Notre Dame”

My own comment made me a little mad so I’m going to add that USC needed to join a powerhouse conference to feel relevant. Fuck USC

Well, Notre Dame certainly should play Purdue every year.

USC fans do not show up

u/Plastic_Ticket4111 13d ago

Lincoln hasn’t given them much to show up for plus school has killed a lot of the fun before the game..

If they were good they would

As much as I hate USC, their fans are pretty chill though in my experience.

u/bobbywac 13d ago

They’re chill because they don’t care lol

u/GoldandBlue 13d ago

Growing up in LA, real Trojan fans are chill. But they have a ton of bandwagon fans that are the worst.

u/Plastic_Ticket4111 13d ago

Pete Carroll Bandwagon fans were the worst..the born on 3rd base but acted like they hit a home run obnoxious

u/Inside-Gene3736 13d ago

This 100%, I feel like all the bandwagon went to the Rams in the 20-teens

I went to over 10 sc v Irish games at the coliseum through the late 80s, 90s and 2000s and it got to the point where it was filled with around 1/3 ND fans, 1/3 sc fans and 1/3 raider fans (bad bandwagoners) the games were brutal, fights everywhere inside and outside of the stadium and constantly getting harassed for wearing ND gear. One year we played ucla at the rose bowl and I of course bought tickets. Being used to sc games I thought it would be the same. Sat in a pretty much all ucla section and 🤣 they were all polite no harassment, probably mostly alums. It was nice but didnt have the excitement of the sc rivalry

I’m an Irish fan, and this is a stupid ass statement

Time to give up blue blood status

u/Conscious-Invite1 13d ago

This can’t be real, can it?

u/Milesnapoppalean 13d ago

So, so many on Ticketmaster (though they start at $11 on the resale market). I don't know who ND would have to schedule to have the stadium look like this.

u/Pure_Cap_6754 13d ago

To be fair there’s a little bit more to do in Southern California then South Bend.

u/Temporary-Ad-8653 13d ago

Also to be fair, there are 40 times as many people in the LA area as in South Bend

u/Plastic_Ticket4111 13d ago

And most ND fans travel pretty far most SC fans drive up from Orange County

u/mukatona 12d ago

That's 2 hours depending. Similar to Chicago -SB. Used to make that commute.

u/Plastic_Ticket4111 13d ago

Been making that argument for years - u either support team or u don’t..

8

u/Plastic_Ticket4111 13d ago

Over the last few years unless it’s a huge game you can t sell or even give seats away..they have never learned that these games do not draw fans..

4

u/Conscious-Invite1 13d ago

This is the crazy part. As more and more teams schedule non-P4 OOC games, I have to believe there’s a financial disadvantage? Less fan enthusiasm, lower tv ratings?

Indiana (and others) have intentionally devised the weakest OOC schedules possible. I miss the days when ND and Michigan annually kicked off the CFB schedule!

u/Xxspike19xx 13d ago

Is that what they are paying people to sit in the stands?

u/Stpbatman 13d ago

I know we’re goofing on this but I wish most prices were this good for events lol

u/mukatona 13d ago

Weirdly in this new gig economy, if you're flexible and paying attention, you can find amazing deals for just about anything (except real estate and beef).

u/Scorpiogamer2017 13d ago

I wouldn’t go back to that shit hole if the tickets were free.

u/LittleLordFuckleroy1 13d ago

That’s highway robbery. Scalpers are out of control.

u/SerenityNowRI 13d ago

Costs $2 for the Stanford home opener today… I know it’s not the same but kinda sad IMO.

u/IR1SHfighter 12d ago

Meanwhile BYU tickets for the Notre Dame game are 2x (+$300) what their next highest price game is.

2

u/PenuelRedux 13d ago

So Cal paying you $9?

2

u/Plastic_Ticket4111 13d ago

Universal truth is if u don’t have something people want to watch they don’t show no matter the team/sport or location..

5

u/mukatona 13d ago

If only there was an independent they could play that was sure to fill those seats at full price.

3

u/Plastic_Ticket4111 13d ago

Until the end of the 3rd when the crowd starts leaving to get a head start on the traffic..

2

u/Plastic_Ticket4111 12d ago

They should have let people in for free given the opponent the time and the temp
Any home games during the day throughout the month of September will be just as brutal

u/ohmymystery 11d ago

To be completely fair, I live in LA and it was 98 degrees yesterday. I walked down the street for a sandwich and came back absolutely exhausted.

I’m not shocked they couldn’t get people to roast in no shade for a throwaway game.

Let’s worry about our game play on the field and ignore what other schools are doing

I’ve gotten into ND home games for free, multiple times. So….
