Here is how the WCC Basketball Tournament "Gonzaga Ticket Scam" works

Um, why aren't we doing this?

boscatar

I know one BYU fan that bought 1 USD season ticket (split the cost with friends)

Richbyu

2/21/19 2:44pm

ummmm we are cheap mormons duh

crimedog

2/21/19 2:44pm

Partially invested

So you need to spend several hundred dollars for seats you'll never use in order to get WCC tourney seats?

Indy Coug

2/21/19 2:49pm

Except it's not several hundred. You've seen how empty their gyms are, right? They're pretty cheap & only need 1.

I just picked a team at random(lmu) cheapest option is $99

If you live in SoCal and want to attend the tournament, seem like no-brainer

boscatar

2/21/19 2:55pm

But Zags never attend any games there. Just use it to access the tourney.

Yes. But, look at it like this:

instead of using the highest priced package couldn't they just as easily buy

LEHI cougar

2/21/19 2:59pm

You'd have to ask each schools' ticket office that question.

Richbyu

2/21/19 3:00pm

I think the idea is to buy the highest level to be sure to have priority

It's a big problem for the WCC. And partially why WCC attendance sucks at many

Richbyu

2/21/19 2:56pm

because basketball is an offseason passtime at which we are average

fulano

2/21/19 2:51pm

So which other team has the cheapest season tickets? Too lazy and cheap.

Big Wally D

2/21/19 2:52pm

When I've been there though, there are still empty seats everywhere for BYU

Adjust your mindset about how Conference Tournaments work.

Richbyu

2/21/19 2:59pm

I watched GU vs BYU in the Semi's two years ago and our student section was

Yah, that’s cause the semis are on a fricken Monday and students have class. Duh.

Gonzaga also schedules their spring break during conference tournament

baldcoug74

2/21/19 6:03pm

Yup. And they are the only fan base that can be easily convinced to buy all-session tickets

TCuz

2/21/19 4:22pm

Some of it is basketball is the "second favorite" for BYU fans

CougarVeteran

2/21/19 8:28pm

I'd be more inclined if my team had been in 20+ straight championship games

BYU Fan

2/21/19 2:55pm

Nebraska fans do that for football. That's how they fill up opposing stadiums.

CapCougar

2/21/19 3:00pm

But this is completely different. There's

like Spokane?

molodyets

2/21/19 3:25pm

notice I mentioned an entire state, not a town 🙂

chazen

2/21/19 3:30pm

If true, I give them credit for creativity

NorthwestCoug

2/21/19 4:20pm

So you are saying they are the more dedicated fans?

StalwartBraveTrue

2/21/19 4:49pm

No, I'm not saying that.

Richbyu

2/21/19 4:59pm

Great thanks for the ideasounds like smart Gonzaga fans
