CASPER, Wyo. (AP) — Wyoming is still more than six months away from hosting college football powerhouse Texas, but early indications are that tickets will be hard to get — and pricey.
Online reseller Stubhub.com is advertising tickets for the game on Sept. 12 for as much as $349.
UW athletics director Tom Burman said he's a little surprised by the ticket prices being asked for already.
But he says Texas is a marquee draw and Wyoming has sold about 350 new season tickets.
UW hasn't had a capacity crowd since opening the season two years ago against Virginia.
Burman and the UW administration are working to increase seating capacity at War Memorial Stadium for the game.
