San Diego State seeing thousands of tickets still available for early season games

As San Diego State's 2023 season opener on Aug. 26 against Ohio draws near, "more than 10,000 tickets remain for the contest” at 32,500-seat Snapdragon Stadium, according to Kirk Kenney of the SAN DIEGO UNION-TRIBUNE. Season-ticket sales “went past the 10,000-mark last month” and SDSU officials were “hopeful of reaching 12,000 season tickets by the season opener.” There are “5,000 free tickets set aside for students,” and typically, “2,000-3,000 tickets also are set aside for opponents, though that number is expected to be lower for the Ohio game." With current ticket-buying trends, an in-house crowd “in the low 20,000s is expected for the game.” There also are “more than 10,000 seats available” for the Sept. 2 game against Idaho State and “more than 7,000 seats remaining” for the Sept. 9 game with UCLA (SAN DIEGO UNION-TRIBUNE, 8/15).
