ACC championship game nearing a sell-out

Fewer than 700 tickets remain on public sale as of Tuesday afternoon for the ACC football championship game Dec. 3 at Charlotte's Bank of America Stadium.

About 53,000 tickets have been sold for the game in the 73,778-seat stadium. The ACC holds out 20,000 tickets for the participating schools.

The remaining seats are good ones: Most of them go for $40 and are in the first 15 rows of the upper deck.

Wow... Sure looks like Charlotte should have been the site of the ACC Championship after all. Sounds like a slame dunk that it'll become the permanent home to the game.

Why did it take them so long to figure out that this is where the game should have been played all along?

Awesome news. I knew the ACC could do it. Mullet Swofford is a freaking genius.

Thank you Clemson. Now don't blow it against Wake in a week from this Saturday or actual attendance will be a disaster.

No Clemson = 40K at the most.

You got lucky Swafford.

Surely Chapel Hill South will fudge the attendance numbers just like Chapel Hill Central.

Meanwhile in Atlanta, the SEC consistently has a new waiting list every year of at least 10,000.

Only approaching a sellout because Clemson is a sure thing. Unless Clemson or VT are certain to be in the game is the game certain to sell out. Hope VT or GT is the opponent and that the weather is good.

and I tell you right now that those tickets were selling like hot cakes, it is not strange at all to me, in fact I bought 20 tickets myself for me, my family and some friends
