WBB First 3 Games Sold Out!

[400SOAVE]

Check out the Tweet with the amazing news that the WBB team's first three games are already sold out.

The first game is more than two months away when they play Bryant at the highly unusual starting time of 11 AM on a Friday. Why? TV? Unless you're a retiree, alums cannot go.

The next two games are against Rutgers and Princeton. Walsh will be rocking.

I really hope they will average at least 1,000 fans per game. That would be a significant milestone, and a big improvement form last season's average of 729. Let's go folks. Support the team. Let's create an awesome home court advantage.

Go Pirates!

" Build it and they will come. " Well Tony and his staff are building it and people are taking notice and are coming to see what's it all about. Great news for the program, the players and the staff.

Nice! Glad to see the WBB team at least is generating a buzz.

Tony gives me hope that the right guy will be chosen next time and that he can get us going.

This is great! Glad I bought my season tickets!

Totally with you 08 and also agree with 75 that it is possible.

There is no reason to believe that every team at Seton Hall can't enjoy the success the women's basketball team is. You just need to believe as well as have the passion and love for Seton Hall that Coach Bozzella has. It can be done. You see it with women's basketball, volleyball and women's golf. Eventually, you will see it with the other teams. Excuses on why we can't succeed are just that, excuses...and they are bull$hit!

I'm not quite sure about that first advance sellout though. There were a few Diana Taurasi (sp?) UCONN games that tickets were not available for.

I'm not quite sure about that first advance sellout though. There were a few Diana Taurasi (sp?) UCONN games that tickets were not available for.

The game that we hosted UConn when they were going for their 60th consecutive win in 2003 (and we actually hung with the Huskies for the whole game) was definitely sold out. There were a lot of neutral fans there to watch UConn, but by the end, most of the cheers were for the Pirates. It was a cool atmosphere.

I listened to the Bozzella interview on WSOU via SoundCloud.

It turns out the Tweet was not accurate. The games are not sold out. They're almost sold out.

This means that you Pirates fans who have not bought your tickets, can attend and increase that home court advantage.

He said that Rutgers and Princeton want a lot of tickets. If Pirates fans don't buy them, they're going to the competition.

 

[TheBluePirate]

Man, this is really important. Last year the Princeton fans were a small group but they brought their absolutely deafening band. We had to scream our voices out to equal it. Folks, this is a call to all true Hall fans to get tickets for these games!

 

[400SOAVE]

I almost forgot, both games will be televised on national TV.

We must show up and create a sea of blue.
