in this situation specifically, why would anyone buy a ticket that won't show up, much less 10% of the people buying tickets? This isn't a situation where you have people who buy season tickets as a package and choose not to come to some games. there will be very few people who buy tickets not show up for this game

I know of some businesses that bought up tickets and gave them out for marketing, to clients. Sometimes, the clients will take the tickets and end up not going. Business doesn't care, written off as an expense. I could see some no shows. Don't know about 10%.

oh i don't doubt there will be SOME no shows, I just think it will be far less than a normal game. most people aren't going to spend 75 a ticket for an event a couple days away and not go

It's just a guess in the end. 5k tickets bought with people not in the seats seems reasonable to me.
