Weird, my dad went right up to the gates and bought his ticket for Va Tech. Not saying your wrong Napp, but he had no troubles at all.
I do know that last year OSU had the deal if you wanted to see the NU game, you had to buy season tickets. I know I overpaid for mine because the husker fans that were sitting next to me paid ticket prices at the gate the day of the game. I was angry alittle, but that feeling left quickly as we blew them away.
