Ticket rush expected for KU Missouri homecoming clash
Tickets for the Kansas Missouri football game at Memorial Stadium this Saturday are selling fast. Athletic manager Earl Falkenstien says a crowd around 35,000 is likely, possibly boosting total from earlier forecasts, with tickets available at Robinson Gymnasium and Eldridge Pharmacy. The 60th inter-state battle may draw the year’s largest KU crowd, though a 40,500 record from 1949 seems unlikely. Weather and late date dampen expectations. KU holds a 7-2 record while Missouri stands 2-7.
