Not even close. That link is for secondary market tickets, mostly people dumping their tickets.
Oklahoma City All Sports Association has done a poor job promoting the Final Four. Unless a lot of walk-up buyers show up this weekend attendance is going to be disappointing.

You think volleyball is going to sell out the Ford Arena??

You think volleyball is going to sell out the Ford Arena?? It was called Ford Center up until 2010, now it's Chesapeake Energy Arena. |

In 2008 when Nebraska was playing in Omaha, yes. |

Last year's Final Four was considered a sellout, there were few tickets left.

Last year's Final Four was considered a sellout, there were few tickets left. Also had a final four team in the mix. Will the draw from "nearby" Texas be enough to sell out this year? Also, local star Hancock could support a near sell out. |

IIRC, this was the smallest Final Four crowd since 2005.
They announced 9,824, but I don't think there were that many there.

I'm going to open a sacrilegious can-of-worms here, but how many of those attending are volleyball fans, as opposed to, say, coaches?
IOW, what would the attendance be if they didn't hold the AVCA convention at the same time? There would still certainly be a lot of coaches how up just to attend, but now the advantage is that the championships can be an activity during the AVCA convention, so a lot of coaches are in town for the AVCA first.

You can be tough, as long as you’re not toxic. Some coaches don't know the difference.

From a TV viewing perspective... it didn't look great to have plenty of empty seats on ESPN.  |

Hard to understand why more fans don't want to visit Oklahoma City in December?!!  |
