Why not? Due to prices or NCCU not having a fan base? For me right now, the biggest negative variable is the rapid rise in COVID infections. It could go anywhere from holding ticket sales to a minimum from here on out to outright cancelling the game.As my wife would say "that new strain is no joke"

We need an Aggie Takeover!
The relationship with Central is a little different now. They can try to win their League and we can try and win ours.
Charlotte should be crazy…
I remember us playing them at the old Stadium with Coach Fobbs I think. Didn’t we go for two or something…and everyone shook their heads.

Welp, I've gained some info. that makes me think my 20k prediction is low. Revising upward to 33,479. It is. Over 20,000 tickets have been sold to date according to our AD at our AAF meeting and you don't have to guess about who sold the bulk of those. Dang Aggie One/Mr. T! I was avoiding telling my source on purpose!

The event is in Florida.
I'm just a consultant for this annual event, but it was cancelled by a unanimous vote tonight of their Board and their planning committee. Infection rates are around 32%...which is probably more like 60% because many are now home-testing and not reporting their status to local health authorities.
That right there is the whole problem in a nutshell. It's Florida. REALLY?? That group is trying to do the right thing.

Would be good to surpass last years ECU vs App State total of 36,752.

Y'all are getting closer and closer to my original 38,000 figure. If our ticket office had 20000 more tickets, they could sell them. I live in Charlotte area and had planned to get my tickets but I figured I had time. I called ticket office today and to my surprise they had no tickets. So I went online and the various ticket companies have plenty. I think attendance will be close to 30000+

I live in Charlotte and loving the increasing amount of advertisements finally occurring. I still don't have my 18.91 Club magnet yet, but i did get a "letter from the Vice Chancellor" thanking me for the donations...digressing, I'm wondering if the 919 media outlets are advertising the event the same way?
