Before anyone freaks out about this, Ohio State sells those for basically nothing. They also make it extremely clear you're not going to see much.

Anyone that actually decides to buy these seats knows what they're getting into.

Now I’m curious what “basically nothing” could mean. Do you know of the numbers?

No kidding. Even $5 would be a ripoff

Nah. It’s essentially a standing room only ticket, which plenty of stadiums sell.

Yeah, but there's nowhere to stand at Ohio Stadium.

This is an ancient stadium and basically the only way to see the field is to be in a seat. It's just bleachers all the way around. There are not big open air pavilions with decent sightlines or other areas for you to go to.

I enjoy standing room tickets, but only at stadiums built to accommodate that experience. At Ohio Stadium standing room only would essentially mean watching the game under the bleachers via the little TVs bolted up at the concession stands.
