While the second- and third-round NCAA Tournament games Thursday and Saturday at the Pepsi Center are technically sold out, there is a chance tickets will become available during the week.
Each of the eight teams coming to Denver is given an allotment of 550 tickets. While that won’t be nearly enough for the BYU fans, teams such as Wofford and Morehead State may not use all of their allotment. Teams not using their full allotment have to return the unused tickets to the site host, which is the Mountain West Conference, by 3 p.m. Wednesday.
If there are any tickets available at that time, the conference will make an announcement about which tickets have been returned and where fans can buy them.
Also, the Metro Denver Sports Commission still has about 1,000 tickets available (). Those are all-session tickets and start at $300. They are the largest block available in the lower bowl.
According to Sue Baldwin, MDSC director of event development, the tickets are part of a fundraising effort for the 2012 women’s Final Four, which is in Denver next April.
