Out of le 6,130 people in the lottery, 1,500 were given the tiance to stand in line to buy tickets to see the Roll ig oiunes ai Clemson Memorial stadium inov. zo. It was a game of chance. Some got a chance and ?me didn't Those lucky 1,500 people were not guaranteed tickts, merely the chance to stand in line to buy tickets. " each buyer bought their allotted 10 tickets, then nly the first 860 people would have been able to get ckets. Clemson allotted USC 8,600 tickets, which were icpected to sell out in two hours, Carolina Coliseum rid Koger Center business manager Dick Marks said. Ticket prices were originally $28.50, Marks said, at $1 was added for damage to be done to the Clemen stadium, and $2 were added for processing larges at Carolina. Ticket sales were highly superised and policed. The coliseum box-office area was roped off to the riveway, allowing only lucky ticket buyers to stand i line. Security guards wandered about inside the iped area, checking for bracelets and keeping the Dn-buyers out. This system was designed for security reasons. The )liseum managers didn't want people camping out xause they felt obligated to the safety of those buyig tickets, Marks said. Clemson didn't take these measures "because they en't in the rock 'n' roll business." and the school n't used to dealing with these kinds of ticket sales, [arks said. Buyers and observers were very' cooperative. There ere no disturbances and no rushes on the ticket win}ws. People stayed close behind the rope and off of e concrete crack next to the windows, as instructed / the man on the microphone. Most ticket buyers felt the system was fair. "I got iy band Friday," business administration freshman )hn Boyles said. He was first in line at Window No. I. "Everybody had a fair chance. It was luck of the aw." Most buyers were purchasing their allotted 10 ticks. Sophomore mechanical engineering major Keith jckie was 15th in line and got his 10 tickets, but asn't sure whether he was going to sell them to his iends or just sell them. At Clemson, students had been camping out since onday. Tickets sold out in the first three hours iturday. Clemson sophomore Townes Walters told her ther, Columbia attorney Fred Walters, to get a wristnd and get tickets because she felt he had a better ance here than she did at Clemson. He ended up urth in line. "I got the band," the elder Walters said, "but little d I know I had to wear it all week!" He was also tting tickets for friends and family members.
