WNBA Finals Game 6 reportedly sold out for midday tipoff, with lower resale entry than earlier games

Front Office Sports also reported that a Dream spokesperson told the outlet Tuesday morning Game 6 tickets had sold out, leaving tickets on the resale market. The WNBA moved the game from 8 p.m. to 12:30 p.m. ET, allowing Atlanta to play at the 17,000-seat State Farm Arena instead of the 3,500-seat Gateway Center, where it played its regular-season games. A Thursday-night Hawks game created the scheduling conflict, the outlet reported.

TicketData founder Keith Pagello suggested to Front Office Sports that resellers may have anticipated a chance for Atlanta to win the title at home or underestimated how a weekday midday start would affect demand. That is his interpretation, not an established account of why people bought tickets. The reported sellout and expected crowd do not establish how many fans will attend.
