Most of those empty seats are corporate seats,

or what the AthDept calls "other contractual obligations." When we get into conference play, those seats will be filled with opposing team fans, i.e., UNC, Duke, UL UVa, etc. Been watching it for years.

RJHokie • 12/06/25 08:30 PM ET
That's what the nice lady in the ticket office told me Friday when I called
ancient alien 2018 • 12/06/25 08:33 PM ET
Yeah, just feel like this is an easy solution for the Athletic Dept
