Expect record crowd at Homecoming game
A record crowd of 46,000 is expected in Memorial Stadium Saturday, as KU looks forward to another Homecoming.
In 1964 a record setting crowd of 44,509 watched Nebraska win 14-7. This year approximately 46,000 tickets have already been sold, with the possibilities remaining of more sales according to Nick Roach, athletic ticket manager.
Within the 46,000 are 8,000 tickets sold to Nebraska University for their traveling fans. Roach said the reason so many Husker rooters attend the away games is because of the ticket shortage in Lincoln.
UNLESS A Nebraska fan has season tickets, his chances of obtaining admission to a home game are low. Single game tickets are usually sold out before the football season starts. Roach said.
When NU plays at Manhattan,
Boulder, Ames, Columbia or
Lawrence, Cornhuskuser fans attend the contest. As a rule the

neighbors from the North don't travel into Oklahoma for the games, he said.
Roach expressed doubt that the stadium will be filled to its 51,500 capacity.
"There are too many tickets and not enough hours left to sell them," he said.
THERE ARE approximately 4,000 five dollar tickets left and 1,500 student tickets left.
Student tickets are located on the south side of the field and are only for grade and high school students at the price of one dollar.
Scalping, the practice of selling tickets at prices other than those printed on the face of the ticket, is not likely to be a problem, according to Roach.

Isolated instances of scalping will probably occur but they will be in the form of down-scalping, according to Roach.
