RE: How can Drexel Basketball improve ticket sales?

I thought the student section showed up, and as the game went on they got louder and louder. I put a Tweet out in the first half: "Once again, a great showing from the student section. Its homecoming weekend. Hey, @Drexelalumni where are you? #Drexel @DACPack"
The response I got from @DrexelAlumni: "We are everyone else not in the student section! Except for those folks in purple!"
Really? Are you? I didnt want to split hairs, but come on.. The last two games the students have done a great job with showing up. The DAC Pack has been working their collective asses off to try and make that happen. The alumni and fans need to step up as well.
The game was virtually sold out yesterday. The empty seats were actually seats of those people who spent the game in the suites, but were required to buy actual tickets. As I said before, I'm not sure how many more people they could have fit into the DAC yesterday. Capacity is 2,509, but I only count about 1,700 actual seats.
