Football nearing a season ticket record

According to Jamie Pollard, Iowa State football is close to making history before the 2017 season has begun.

On Friday, the leader of the Cyclone Nation tweeted that if the student section sells out, Iowa State will sell over 40,000 season tickets and “maybe a new record.”

That’s impressive and worth noting that it is all coming off of a 3-9 record a year ago. Iowa State has only won 11 games over the last four years and the fans continue to show up. It’s pretty awesome.

Jack Trice Stadium has a listed capacity at 61,500.

Chris was hired as Cyclone Fanatic’s publisher in the fall of 2009. He is Iowa State football's postgame show host on the Cyclone Radio Network and can be heard daily from 4-7 on Des Moines' top-rated sports station, 1460 KXnO. Williams, a 2007 graduate of Iowa State’s Greenlee School of Journalism, is the former publisher of the old CycloneNation.com (Scout.com). He has also written for the Des Moines Register, the Ames Tribune, CycloneReport.com and is the former sports director at KMA Radio. When Williams isn’t working, you can usually find him doing something outdoors with his wife Ashley, daughter Camryn, and Golden Retriever Dierks. He enjoys golfing, boating, country music, the Minnesota Vikings, Atlanta Braves and is passionate about any and all motor sports so finding Williams at a local dirt track is very common.
