A Friendly Reminder from Your Favorite Happy Valley Inn Keeper

I just read this report on www.gopsusports.com... STATE COLLEGE, Pa., June 30, 2005 -

Penn State alumni purchased more than 10,000 single game football tickets the first three days of this week, resulting in the first home sellout of the 2005 season, the October 8 clash with border rival Ohio State.

A limited number of tickets remain for the October 29 Homecoming contest with Purdue, according to Bud Meredith, Director of Ticket Operations.

The alumni sale began June 27 and has resulted in a record-setting number of on-line sales over the first three days.

Single game tickets will go on sale to the public on Tuesday, July, 5. All orders are to be placed online at: www.GoPSUsports.com, the official website of Penn State Athletics.

Fans should click the "Buy Tickets" link in the upper part of the left navigational bar to purchase tickets.

Phone and counter orders are not available for the public sale or the alumni sale.

There is a limit of four tickets for the Homecoming game with Purdue (Time TBA).

Tickets also are available for five additional Nittany Lions home games: South Florida (Sept. 3, 3:30 p.m.); Cincinnati (Sept. 10, 12:00 p.m.); Central Michigan (Sept. 17, 1:30 p.m.); Minnesota (Oct. 1, TBA) and the Senior Day contest with Wisconsin on Nov. 5 (TBA).

If tickets remain after the public sale, group sales - as well as sales for the away games - will begin on Monday, July 18 at 8:00 a.m. Tickets for the Nittany Lions' games at Northwestern (Sept. 24, TBA), Illinois (Oct. 22, 7:00 p.m.) and the season ending battle at Michigan State (Nov. 19, TBA) will likely be available. Penn State's allotment for the Oct. 15 game at Michigan will be exhausted by orders from Nittany Lion Club members.

Phone orders, counter and group sales will take place only if tickets remain after the alumni and public sales. The numbers to call are: 814-865-5555 or 800-863-3336 weekdays from 8:00 a.m.-5:00 p. m.

Tickets are going fast so if you planned to come up for a game and have a preference for a date or opponent you need to get tickets very soon.
