Tomorrow's game is now officially a sellout.  No tickets remain on ticketmaster but I know you can find them on stubhub etc.

It is amazing how many tickets can be sold when there is no television for a game.

Are people literally complaining because it never gets sold out in Fay, there's only 10 seats in Verizon, we would have like 4 sell outs already in Fay if their was only 10,000 seats

I think that's maximum capacity with seating on the floor for concerts. The most I recall in there for basketball was around 15,000.

I was there for a Hogball game a few years back when they had curtains pulled across the upper level. This is great! WPS!

A game with no TV time outs for ads. The Cheerleaders will have that place rocking from the time that they (cheerleaders) arrive. The band and the cheer squads will really have the crowd roaring..The Bud could be the same. Just got to get over trying to squeeze the last penny out of the program. Even Jim Robkin couldn't operate in the climate that has been set for our programs. Time to give the program back to the fans and let the Hog Call prevail. JMO

Regardless of how many seats there are for basketball at Verizon, a sellout is a sellout!

This team feeds off energy of the crowds. Go Hogs!

103.7 had a spokesman from Verizon on today and said tmrw should be right around 17,000

This is gonna be so much fun! I hope there is a temporary lull in the crowd noise so that I can get in one good zinger on the refs just on general principles, good call or bad.

According to the almighty Wikipedia, basketball seating capacity at Verizon is 18k.

There should be at least 17k or so actually in the house.

Got my tickets well over a week ago, and I can't wait.

That was the player that played in the XFL I think.  I watched the 30 for 30 about the XFL last week.  Pretty interesting how they implemented things into the NFL from the XFL.  Like more behind the scene access and the sky cam.

No Tv for the  North Little Rock game but Jeff Long made sure to give  his buddy a crazy buyout contract for  Brett Beilama but can't spend $40,000 on equipment to film the game. Hopefully the new athletic director gets this fixed and spends the money to show games in North Little Rock next year.

You might have seen an arena football game there but would be kinda hard to see He Hate Me since he played in a whole other league in Vegas.

For concerts they also don't have seating behind the stage where it's blocked off but it's opened up for a basketball venue. 17,000-18,000 is pretty accurate

I helped sell out Verizon Arena! Congrats to me. WPS!!!

Have fun! Glad to hear it...pissed off it is not on television. Do games in central Arkansas...I am all for it! But if we are going to keep doing things there INVEST! I live between the two so I don't care but either go all in on LR or all out...I hate the cheap middle ground that looks bad on TV or isn't on TV at all.

Fans there seem hungry though. Should be fun. No one that is not there will ever know though.

I have zero issues with Central Arkansas games, in fact it's a pretty good idea to include the entire state. HOWEVER...that part of the state needs to invest in either a new stadium OR add sets/spruce up WMS. Verizon needs to be able to have equipment to televise games easily.

Someone at the game please stream it.

They can televise games just as easily at Verizon as any Stadium in the Country, where'd you get that idea from?

The IGNORANCE is amazing sometimes on HV.

Get your facts straight and put away your agenda.

Give props when props are due. Don't start another GSD just because you hate central AR - makes you look petty.

I don't think the arena is the reason it isn't televised.

My only complaint with Verizon is that somebody needs to power wash all that ugly white sheet metal near the top of the structure....

WMS is owned by the State of Arkansas.  Verizon has all the equipment necessary for a game to be televised.  NCAAT games have been televised from there as well as the SEC Women's Tournament.

If it were a bigger name opponent it could have been picked up by ESPN/ESPN2 or ESPNU.  Bowl season has started however so you're competing with that.

So they will take your wife unless you get them tickets?  That's kind of harsh.
