    Just out of curiosity, how many regular season games have been played in Cameron that did not involve Duke? And how do they do the tickets, will the other team's fans have the opportunity to watch?

    I believe the last time this happened they just switched out the visitors section after the first game. IIRC Cameron was nearly empty and the ugrads ran back and forth from end to end as the ball moved cheering at each end of the floor for a good portion of the game.

    For non-visitors section tickets, one ticket allowed you to watch the Duke game and the non-Duke game preceeding it. You just can't leave once you're in. Although, that's true for all games in Cameron.

    Cameron was probably 10 degrees hotter than normal for the game start that day..lol! Would love to see video of that, like the biggest ping pong game on the planet.
