They're doing it again (PSU "sold out")

could be ticket brokers got their hands on a boatload of tickets and putting them on stub hub.
I'm having a hard time thinking Rutgers couldn't sell them and had to do a dump to claim sell out.

You're being naive. Here is what MANY Tix listings say.. "These tickets are from StubHub's exclusive partners, therefore these seats are only available on StubHub."

You think brokers are exclusively listening on StubHub. Go checkout the Rider bball game. Same deal for the sections thery we're giving away to football season tic holders. Rutgers is the exclusive partner . Come on.

NO.
That "Stubhub Exclusive Tickets" mark doesn't mean anything. My tickets were labeled "Stubhub Exclusive Tickets" too.

Just got an alert that there are no longer tickets available to the general public and the game is a sellout.

There appears to be no shortage of tickets on Stubhub.
Will be interesting to see how many PSU fans have parking passes on Saturday in the nearby stadium lots.
 
Everybody should care that "sellout", to the athletic department, means "dump all the remaining tickets to Stubhub". Everybody should be embarrassed that RU declares a sellout, loudly on all media, then shows up with 60% capacity on gameday.

Everyone is free to not care, of course. But I think it's just cheap and sloppy PR.
Aside from the optics of calling it a sellout when it is not, is there really a meaningful difference between the remaining tickets being sold through the Rutgers Paciolan site or sold through StubHub. Anyone with a valid credit card and internet connection can buy either ticket.

Let's just hope the supply and demand issues don't have Stub Hub crash like a Taylor Swift concert, 😎

This
Not sold out. Another massive dump of tickets by RU to a 3rd Party site.

Considering the minimum priority point levels required for particular parking lots, and the hoops we had to jump through to secure those tickets, if Rutgers is not filling the closer parking lots with long-time season ticket holders but dumping any excess spots on Stub Hub for the general public, I agree, this is particularly sh*tty of them.

I don’t care they dump the tickets on the secondary market but the fact they parrot it LOUDLY as a sellout is a really really bad look for a program that doesn’t need any more G-league PR.

We need to know the particulars of the ticket dump.

Does Rutgers get paid something up front from the secondary market partner for each ticket so thy considered them sold? How does it work??

I saw that message( that I've never seen before) , on some seats for a hoops game. Which by the way were way beneath face in 200s.
 
Attendance will be solid IMO, it will just be a lot of blue.
 
With the state of the program. Any sell out is good. Even if it’s opposing fans. Money.
