Roughly 2,500 tickets remain for CSU game vs. Minnesota

Approximately 2,500 tickets remain for Saturday’s nationally televised football game between CSU and Minnesota at Hughes Stadium.

Colorado State University has sold roughly 20,000 tickets to the game and is expecting all 10,000 student tickets to be distributed.

“Anticipating students pick up their entire allotment of tickets, there are 30,000 tickets out,” said Ben Lorenzen, CSU’s senior associate athletic director for sales, marketing and communications. “With a couple thousand more to sell and a large anticipated walk-up we are encouraging fans to go online to CSURams.com or call 1-800-491-RAMS before Saturday to purchase a ticket.”

Hughes Stadium seats 32,500 fans and last reached capacity Oct. 19, 2014, for the Border War when CSU beat Wyoming 45-31.
