Ticket office is reporting almost 31.000 tickets sold to Atlanta. That is phenomenal. Plus season ticket sales is also the highest ever.
 
Lots of AU fans purchased tickets through the UofL office..Attendance will be 70/30 AU

Tell that to some of the guys on your board. This was a topic on the long "thread for the discussion of football, UofL fans welcome". Some UK posters there claim it will only be a minor attendance advantage for Auburn, and not enough to make a difference in the game. And in that thread, it was projected that UofL would probably have a minimum of 25-30K based on current Louisville ticket office sales and past history of UofL fans traveling for big games. FTR, the Georgia Dome seats 71K for football games. If you want to call that a 70/30 split, have at it.
 
65-35% was about the split. Very impressed with UL fan turnout and noise

I don't think it was 65-35. That would have made it almost two to one Auburn. I'm splitting hairs but I think it was closer to 60-40.

It looked to me that the sections, both upper and lower, in the end zones that would have been public sales seats were almost all Auburn fans. There were a few Auburn fans in the Louisville sections. Two in our row in Section 113 said they got their seats on Stub hub, not thru UofL. They said the lower bowl seats on Stub hub in the UofL section were about $100 cheaper than similar seats on the Auburn side. Suspect some UofL season ticket holders who bought two-for-one from UofL then sold their seats thru the on line brokers because they couldn't go or wanted to make a profit. Any Auburn fans who bought thru UofL were likely given end zone seats because they wouldn't have had any CAF points.
