CINCINNATI - Tickets for the BIG EAST Showdown at Nippert Stadium between the defending BIG EAST Champion Bearcats and West Virginia University are now SOLD OUT, the University of Cincinnati Athletics Ticket Office announced on Tuesday. The game is set for an 8 p.m. kickoff on Friday, November 13th and will be televised nationally on ESPN2.
Less than 2,000 west side tickets remain for this Saturday's Game vs. Fresno State, which is set for a Noon kickoff. Bearcats football tickets can be purchased online at www.CATSTIX.com, by phone at 1-877-CATS-TIX, or in person at the Athletics Ticket Office in the Lindner Athletics Center.

(See bottom of release for social media addresses)
UC Athletics has designated the Fresno State game as the "WHITE OUT" game for the 2009 season and is encouraging all fans to "Come Early and Be Loud", but on this one day of the year, "Wear White" instead of the trademark BEARCAT BLACK. The U.S. Army will be handing out 6,000 white T-shirts to UC Students upon their entry in to the student sections in the South End of the venue.
The total allotment of 6,000 student tickets is exhausted for Saturday's game against Fresno State. Additional overflow tickets are available to UC Students for $10 and are available exclusively at the UC Athletics Ticket Office. These overflow tickets are not available online.
One guaranteed way to get tickets to each of the five remaining home games is to purchase a Reduced Schedule Season Ticket, priced at $245 for UCATS Reserved Seat, $227 for a Non-UCATS Reserved Seat, $190 for a UC Staff Ticket, and $449 for a set of four season tickets in the Family Plan. This package enables you the opportunity to see non-conference games vs. Fresno State and Illinois, along with BIG EAST games against West Virginia, Louisville, and UConn.
