Having Penn State as a visiting team did not quite draw as well as Temple was expecting. They expected a sellout. While Lincoln Financial Field was not quite filled to capacity and still well short of the 2007 crowd that set a MAC attendance record, the Owls did have some positives to come out of hosting Penn State on Saturday. They saw a large student section come out, although it looked as though an entire section showed up late due to late-arriving buses.
Perhaps the ticket prices between $60 and $80 was just too much for Temple fans to purchase, not to mention the Penn State fans who are already in a tizzy over STEP at Beaver Stadium.
Now, imagine trying to sell tickets for a Temple home game against Toledo? Tickets for that game are now being discounted through a Groupon deal today for as little as $12. Any takers?
