Purdue Basketball Reaches a Milestone For The First Time Since 1982-1983

For a number of years before, during, and after my time at Purdue the number 14,123 meant a lot. It was the total number of seats in Mackey and it signified a sellout. That number stuck around for a long time until, as all things do, change came around. Mackey Arena was renovated and some cushy seats were added, then updated. Now, the official capacity of Mackey Arena is 14,876. Purdue did what has become the norm for them once again this year, they sold out every single home game. This marks 57 games in a row. The sellout streak goes all the way back to Jan.
