ACC Tournament Tickets 2010

I will be in attendance for the 2010 ACC Tournament after seeing how cheap the acc tournament tickets were, probably because UNC fans aren’t as interested this year. But, I will be there taking in the action and checking out some players I haven’t seen in person since they were in high school.

The ACC tournament is one the best college atmospheres, rivaled (in my mind) only by the Big East’s tournament because of the depth of talent in both conferences. Although I expect Duke to prevail this year, that’s not to say it’s an easy field for them.

ACC Tournament Tickets Go On Sale (Psst..to the Public)

For the first time since 1966, ACC Basketball Tournament tickets will go on sale to the general public. The general thinking is that the economy is driving the decision. I wrote a few days ago about the cheapest way to find ACC Tournament tickets, and I saw a few tickets a couple of days ago listing at less than $200 for a full session. Those, I think, went pretty quick.

This year’s tournament in Atlanta should be a real brawl, with several teams that could walk away with a title, so I expect that a lot of fans will take advantage of the great Georga Dome venue and the more availability of tickets…but I wonder if that will ultimately drive up demand, since a lot of fans would like to attend but didn’t have the ability to get tickets. Now, that’s changed a bit. The Georgia Dome is the largest venue that the ACC tournament will be played in, with seating for basketball at 30,000.

It’s the second time the tournament will have been played in the Georgia Dome.

ACC Tournament Tickets 2009

The ACC Tournament is my favorite college basketball tournament, which is no suprise, considering I am such a big fan of the ACC. Now there’s an awesome way to find the cheapest prices on ACC tournament tickets.

This link shows all of the cheapest ACC Basketball Tournament tickets dynamically. It updates all of the time, searching all available tickets and listing the cheapest ones. It’s a fantastic way to keep up with the prices, which tend to go up as the tournament approaches.

This year the tournament is being held in Atlanta, GA, which should mean more fans can attend due to seating. The location of the ACC tournament is a bit of a bone of contention, with so much of the ACC focused on North Carolina. Teams outside the state of NC cry foul that Duke, NC State, UNC and Wake Forest can play so close to home, but the center of the ACC schools is squarely between Durham and Chapel Hill. This year, Georgia Tech fans will have the shortest trip to the tourney, but it’s closer for Florida State and Miami as well. Clemson fans are probably slightly closer to Atlanta than Chapel Hill.
