why do college games sell almost twice as many tickets as pro games?

Look at their stadiums, they are older and bigger and probably cost less to build and they charge less for most tickets, and it's the only thing going in town in most college towns, this is a good question but that's my best explanation.

More people grow up around a college team than do a pro team so there is more pride in college teams. I live in Nashville and before the Titans came I barley followed pro games now I follow it more but I still follow my beloved vols.

College games are a lot more fun. youve got the band and all the people singing and it's people from there old school. It's mostly because of the atmosphere and watching kids play instead of watching a bunch of grown men on top of each other.

My guess is because the college games are cheaper...because the colleges aren't having to pay their athletes millions in salaries. Instead, the athletes get an education. i think that appeals to most people--its not a business (at least not in the same way)

They are cheaper and majority of the fans have either gone to that school or have a son/daughter that go to that schoolo, you feel like your a part of the team and this is why many people go everytime.

More loyalty towards college teams and tickets are cheaper.

I WOULD FIGURE COLLEGE GAME TICKETS ARE LESS EXPENSIVE OVER ALL. MAYBE NOT AT THE MAJOR PROGRAMS.
