  • palestra38]Actually, the attendance was pretty good--from what I understand, they sold about 6500 tickets. Had the students been in session and they reduced the ticket price about 1/3, I'm sure it would have sold out. I do not believe it was marketed well for the live event--you obviously do not play the premier game first. The way I would do it is play two double headers on Friday (with the women's during the day-we love them, but that's not the reason people buy the tickets) and a night men's doubleheader. Then the finals in a doubleheader Sunday afternoon. /quote Said:

If both the Men's and Women's Quarters were played at the home of the higher seed on Fri. and the Finals in a doubleheader at a neutral site, I would expect many more than 6500 tickets would be sold.
(Sorry, I screwed up the quote)
