The Huskers Spring Game is just four days away, but the questions with weather have drastically impacted ticket prices on the secondary market.

Tickets to the spring game set for Saturday at 11am at Memorial Stadium in Lincoln were sold out hours after they were offered to the public.  Season ticket holders could buy up to 20 for $10 or $20 a piece.  Quickly the secondary market had some tickets on sale for more than $100 over the purchase price.

In the last few days, websites like TicketExpress.com and Stub Hub have seen prices drop to under $10 not including fees.

"I mean the demand is still there as far as the game itself is concerned but I think that mother nature has gotten in the way," said Chad Carr, President of Ticket Express.

Carr says the expanded stadium, the early kick-off, and since it will be televised on the Big Ten Network some are now trying to sell their tickets.

When the spring game was canceled in 2012, the athletic department didn't give refunds but allowed fans to use their tickets for a baseball game.  Ticket Express says they will offer refunds if the game is canceled.
