UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. -- Penn State students continued to show their excitement for Nittany Lion men’s ice hockey as they shattered the previous record by purchasing their entire season ticket allotment in just two minutes and 12 seconds. The Roar Zone is now sold out for the fifth consecutive season.
The previous record of three minutes was set in September 2014 during the first-ever men’s hockey online sale. The fan base also rallied for the 2015-16 season selling out in five minutes.
“The Roar Zone continues to show why they are the best student section in college hockey,” commented Head Coach Guy Gadowsky. “Selling out their ticket allotment in just over two minutes is unbelievable, we can’t wait to play in front of them this season.”
A 13 game season-ticket package went on sale for students at 7 a.m. and the sale was closed just after 7:02 a.m. Students will attend all games with the exception of the Michigan State series (Nov. 24-25) during Thanksgiving break and the Wisconsin series (Jan. 5-6) during winter break.
