From their website:
"Coastal Carolina has been one of the standouts in I-AA in attendance based on capacity in its first five seasons. Ranking in the top seven in the nation in each of the first two years, the Chanticleers set a new Brooks Stadium record in the home opening win over No. 1 James Madison, packing 8,533 fans into a stadium that seats 6,408. Coastal finished the season as the top I-AA team in attendance based on capacity at 114.3 percent. The Chants continued that tradition in 2006, including setting a new Brooks Stadium record with 9,287 fans in the home win over South Carolina State, Sept. 23. The Chanticleers then surpassed it with 10,013 fans in the home win over then No. 3 Furman. The Chanticleers had 8,169 fans in the first contest at Elon and ranked fourth in I-AA in attendance based on percentage of capacity at 112.52 percent."
So, it appears that they will not turn folk away at the gate. Anybody wanting to see the game might as well go. We may even help them set another attendance record, but I doubt it with the band's presence.

We have our tickets and will be heading out Friday morning. This trip is or at least it was one of the band's three travel dates in preseason.

I just got off the phone with the A&T and CCU ticket offices. They are both sold out. Well, CCU had one ticket left and will turn people away at the gate. I am PISSED! To have my Aggies play just an hour and a half away and I can see it live just ain't right.

Didn't realize their place was that tiny. That's smaller than Howard.

Just confirmed that I'll be coming down on Friday with the family.
We need to try and find a good restaurant that evening where we can all meet up.
