When ATM went down here in SA, it became much more sparse. Of course the tickets were already purchased. They were giving them out in front of the Alamo dome for OSU/ Memphis.

A select few womans NCAA teams draw.
One of the reasons that the committee does things like put Louisville in the Lexington bracket is to sell tickets. This tournament and football pays for all the other NCAA sports. The Final 4 is really the only tough ticket but the regional games do get large crowds.
I saw highlights of the womans regionals where there was virtually no one there.
