The Dome configuration used for this event only used one end zone for seating. They only had 10k tickets available for sale, and they all went.

1)Syracuse University is almost as liberal as Cornell -- I know, I went there.

2)Tickets cost $3 for students ($5 for public).

3)Seating was artificially limited 10,000.

Of course the show was sold out, just as Moore intended (after months of demographic planning for maximum results, no doubt). Now if 10,000 people bought tickets at an average of $4 per ticket, and Moore was paid $38,000 to speak, SU couldn't have even broke even on the event.
