N.C. State football remains a hot ticket, even during an economic recession.
Season tickets for N.C. State games are sold out for the ninth straight year, according to an announcement today by Brian Kelly, the school's assistant athletics director for ticket operations.
But a limited number of single-game tickets remain on sale. Tickets for the Murray State, Gardner-Webb and Duke games remain available. A few "Rivalry Packages," which include seats for the Duke and North Carolina games for $93, also remain.
Athletics director Lee Fowler said N.C. State's improvement under third-year coach Tom O'Brien has kept the team popular among fans.
"Even in a difficult economic climate, our fans continue to show how devoted they are to Wolfpack football and how excited they re about the coming season," Fowler said. "I know it means a lot to Coach O'Brien and his team that they will again be playing in a packed Carter-Finley Stadium."

Fri, 08/28/2009 - 17:07 — golfersc244I bought 4 tix via the "Rivalry Packages." I was hoping some single UNC tix would go on sale, but when I saw this deal I knew I had to jump on it. I saw some online site offering NCSU/USC tix for well over $100. Two State games are better than none in person. Even though HD TV isn't half bad!
deveoted?

Is deveoted a "Lee Fowler-ism" or did you forget to spell check.
I can see Lee Fowler saying :
" Our fans are Diddly-Deeeeveoted Mr. Tysiac."
yeah, but
Thu, 08/27/2009 - 13:10 — dsutton63How many of those were sold to sleazy scalpers, rather than "Pack fans"?
Just look at craigslist on an average day. Scores of people attempting to sell Wolfpack tickets, including full season tickets, for ridiculous prices. Not to mention the other places those low-lifes sell their tickets.
I bet that the ticket market right before State games will be really soft, for those patient enough to wait. Which would be nice because it screws the scalpers.
Nice

I am sure these will sell out as well. I am sure that this will be the going trend until they upgrade the facilities and add a few more seats. ...... duck.....
Just kidding of course, way to go guys.
Not a surprise
