My plans for the weekend freed up and now I am able to make it down to Akron for the game. I called the Akron ticket office and they are sold out. I checked TicketMaster and they are also out. I have read that the OU ticket office is also out. Does anyone have an extra 1-3 tickets available?

I can't imagine there is a big scalper market in Akron and I don't really want to drive down there just to not get in.

Thanks!

stubhub.com would be the first places I would go to find tickets. The problem is I just checked stubhub and they don't have any. Good luck on finding tickets.

Time to scalp out front of the JAR.  Sold out house.  Which isn't hard in their gym.  That's right: GYM.

Looks like it's time for Akron to build a new arena.

About 5 years ago I bought a ticket for the Ohio/Akron game outside the JAR from some guy and the game wasn't even a sellout (although I think the following year it was on ESPN2 and was pretty close to being a sell out.)  

I'm assuming the guy was an Akron grad since I gave him a $20 for a $10 ticket and got $30 back...no joke!

I have come up empty handed so far. I have decided that it is worth the risk; and we will be headed down to Akron around 3:30 to check out the local scene. If anyone comes across somebody selling a few tickets please email me at bobby.m.thompson at gmail.com

Go Bobcats!!!

You can buy a ticket for the women's game beforehand and stay for the men's.
