Sid: David Benedict says Aspire has generated more than $2MM in ticket sales

per Sid:

• One reason the Gophers had more fans than expected Thursday night is that the Aspire Company of Atlanta has done a good job selling tickets, with the company getting 10 percent from what they sell. According to David Benedict of the Gophers athletic department, Aspire has generated, to date, more than $2 million in ticket sales. Its goal last year was $1.4 million in sales. At this point only 3,000 season tickets are sold, but most of the tickets are sold to students when they start class, which happens next week.

Go Gophers!!

Does that figure makes sense. Are all ticket sales credited to aspire?

The club seat and suite owners must have great tailgate parties, because half of them didn't bother coming into the stadium. Whole lot of empty up there.
