Anticipating another heated Duel in the Desert hardwood showdown, the Zona Zoo sold out its allocated road trip tickets to ASU for Saturday’s game within the first hour.
This season ASU provided 60 tickets for the Zona Zoo after a raucous crowd made its presence known in Tempe last season.
“”The bottom line is ASU really doesn’t want many of our fans there,”” said Conner Comp, executive director of the Zona Zoo.
“”They don’t want Zona Zoo to be there. They know of how big of a problem we cause with all of the chants and everything.””
The $35 package includes a ticket, t-shirt, transportation and snacks round trip from McKale Center. The two buses depart at 4 p.m.
“”We kind of want to demonstrate what different student sections are at different venues and places,”” Comp said. “”Our goal for this road trip is to make a mini Zona Zoo at away games.””
