    OSU giving away bowl tickets

    This is comedy gold.
    OSU to give away tickets to fulfill bowl allotment
    Donor helps OSU fulfill its ticket allotment

    By MATT DOYLE World Sports Writer
    12/9/2006

    Oklahoma State will fulfill its 12,000 ticket allotment for the Independence Bowl later this month against Alabama.

    University director of marketing Kyle Wray confirmed Friday that an anonymous donor has purchased OSU's remaining ticket allotment, which is in excess of 3,000. Those tickets will be given to OSU students and faculty and staff members free of charge. There is a limit of two tickets per person.

    "I think it is a great opportunity for our faculty, staff and students to get and go see the game thanks to the goodwill of this person," Wray said. "Two or three days ago this plan came together, and we're just grateful that this was made possible."

    The free tickets will be available beginning Monday from the Boone Pickens Stadium south box office. Hours are 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. A valid OSU ID is required to receive the tickets.

    The Cowboys meet Alabama in the Independence Bowl on Dec. 28 in Shreveport, La. Kickoff time is 3:30 p.m.

    Because without T. Boone, the game probably wouldn't sell out.

    Have fun in Shriveport.

    maybe if it were a little closer to gameday i'd believe that it wouldn't have sold out... a little far off to claim that, i think.

    If they were at all confident that OSU was going to sell its allotment, they would've told that "donor" thanks but no thanks. Because he just screwed fans outside of the university from being able to buy tickets from OSU's allotment.

    They couldn't even sell their allotment?
    Bowl officials don't view that type of fan base as very appealing.

    I really don't think they'd have problems with ticket sales for that game.

    Blobert said this morning he thinks the anonymous donor is Mike Holder.

    Something to the effect of giving back to the students, etc. for all his screw-ups this year. (my words, not his)

    They may be able to give them away if some "anonymous donor" also provides free transportation and lodging. Plus free spending money.

    Now that would be sad... If that happens, I'll be able to see the humor.

    Since the ticket giveaway, mule rentals and tent sales in Stillwater have sky rocketed.
