Did anyone else see the sign a fan had during the game that had a big red N on it and below it

read I'm here early. Fing classic.

 
Didn't watch it close enough but that is pretty good. Good catch, and LOL to whoever did that.

Saw a report on the national (NBC) news tonight talking about how Orlando's parks had a 2+ million person upswing this holiday season compared to last year and they showed a ton of red clad people walking around the Disney parks, which apparently had lines to even get in this week, between bowl games and just people finding a way to make the trip this year.

I have a hard time believing we didn't sell out our allotment. But it was good to see ND implode again...even though I might've picked them.

The last tally I saw was 8500 of 12500 tickets sold from the Nebraska allotment. Many people cite the price of flights being too high as main reason not going.

It's a good reason, between that and not wanting to get felt up or irradiated, I wouldn't want to fly either. It's also a really long drive, I've done it a few times. White knuckle with idiots doing 100mph weaving through traffic from atl south.

i work at one of the orlando theme parks, and every major park in the area reached capacity and was forced to close the gates on tuesday and wednesday. i have not seen too many bowl fans though for any of the teams. there just seem to be tons of people on vacation during what is typically a very busy season anyway.

 
From what I'm hearing, there will still be a TON of Husker and SC fans there - they're just not buying tickets through the schools. They're going to secondary sellers, where they're getting (I'm hearing) better prices.

 
Several places (OWH, LJS, etc.) are speculating that people can get tickets cheaper online rather than go through the school. They're still expecting a lot of Scarlet and Cream, even if the official allotment doesn't sell out.

Can you pay extra for a hot TSA agent?

What you have to remember, if the game is not being sold out then you can find cheaper tickets elsewhere. All those ticket vendors buy large quantities/blocks of tickets hoping the game is in high demand...if it's not they need to unload tickets usually below what they purchased them for.
