I've asked in the past and was provided this information, so I suggest that you contact the AD. But, I'm guessing that the announced attendance at the exhibition game is very close to the number of season tickets sold.

E-mail just hit for those that requested tickets.
Me plus the wife, I was able to sell her on attending this game since there will be alcohol sales
PS - with everything we criticize, I think kudos are in order for 1) having a game at the RAC after many fans said they enjoyed the experience 2 years ago; and 2) having the creative incentive program to give free tickets to season ticket holders who attend the manhattan and ODU games. Both creative, outside the box and appreciated by me as a season ticket holder, even if we are only really going for the concessions

Given that there will be beer & wine for purchase at this game, do you think Mason is considering alcohol sales at the Patriot Center in the future?

I do believe we are witnessing Edwards beginning to put his stamp on the athletic department.

There will be a pre-game hospitality room accessible to season ticket holders and Patriot Club members. Food, soft drinks, beer and wine will be available for purchase.
I think having a one time limited sale of alcohol to what will likely be a group in the dozens is not necessarily an indication of an intent to sell to thousands of people. I do have to wonder though why they would open it up to non green/gold room members instead of just creating a hospitality room for those who typically have access to one at the Patriot Center. The reasoning behind that distinction could indicate whether or not they are considering having general sales of alcohol.
Yes.Anyone worried that Mason might embarass themselves and lose to a non D1 school like Drexel did? We are 2-6....
My guess, based on zero research:
If Catawba plays team ball they win. If they play as a bunch of individuals, then our bunch of individuals beats theirs.

In last 4 seasons, have ever beat the shit outta somebody?

Not that any of these wins are against particularly impressive teams.

Also, see http://www.gomason.com/fls/25200/Stats/Men's Basketball/2011-12/gmu-mb19.htm. BTW, didn't Ryan Pearson negate many of Hewitt's coaching flaws?
That is true indeed. He was using players recruited by Larranaga. A group of players Larranaga carefully selected with unique individual skills so they could complement each other and play like a cohesive team. Hewitt on the other hand just recruits as many carbon copy 6 foot 7 inch trees he can find.

The 2010-11 season was awesome for blow outs though. The 16 game winning streak, 11 of the first 12 were by double digits. That team was so much fun to watch.
