MADISON, Wis. — The University of Wisconsin-Madison Athletic Department offered an explanation Tuesday for the controversy over football tickets.
The nearly 11,000 tickets went on sale on April 21 and sold out in three days. But some students claimed they didn’t get the e-mail notifying them of deadlines.
The Athletic Department said that it staggered the e-mails to keep the server from overloading, but said it appears that some didn’t get sent.
A decision is expected on Wednesday as to how to handle the ticket problem.
