TICKETING PROCESS
The OHSAA will send playoff ticketing guidelines and information to schools on Friday and will meet virtually with all playoff schools on Monday morning to discuss. According the latest order from the Ohio Department of Health and the Governor, only 15 percent of the stadium’s permanent seating capacity are permitted to attend games, unless the site has been approved for a variance by the Ohio Department of Health. Note that the home team can have its band in attendance for its games, while both teams can have cheerleaders.

All playoff tickets will be sold online through www.OHSAA.org/tickets and will be available starting Tuesday, October 6.

I would assume that tickets will be available to parents first and would be split evenly between schools. At most facilities that would mean no tickets for the public.
15% at Nelsonville-York is around 400 people. I doubt that in 2 weeks when the Buckeyes play their will be any tickets left for the public.

???

They’re high school students. You know, the classmates of the participants. Why should they not be allowed to watch their friends and boyfriends play if the size capacity permits?

If there are extra tickets, shouldn't seniors get first dibs?

yes high school 12th grade students. This is their last year and will never get this time or experiences back. Why is that so hard to understand?

It’s not hard to understand.

Seems like it should be a school policy to decide how remaining tickets are hashed out, not something universal across OH.

I agree, my point exactly. It doesn't seem like certain schools are even trying to be fair about who they pass out tickets to.

Likely accounting for the surcharge of doing it through a third-party service like Hometown Tickets as opposed to the old way. This way they get the same margins while paying the service to handle it. Look at it this way, you'd still be ahead on the season since you didn't buy a home game ticket. :lol:

How about increasing the seating from the ridiculous 15% capacity to at least 25% and keep the ticket prices where they were last year. They jack the prices up to make up for the low number of fans attending.
MANDATE masks be worn (If they don’t wear them make them leave) and 6’ social distancing and you can easily do 25%-35% seating capacity, possibly up to 50%.

Be pretty close when you throw in band and cheer and split families
