More than 41 years have passed since Mike Krzyzewski coached his first game at Cameron Indoor Stadium, an uneventful 67-49 win over Stetson on Nov. 29, 1980. Since then, the court, which now bears his name, has been home to countless magical moments, epic wins and thrilling rivalry games.
On Saturday, Krzyzewski will coach his final home game at Duke, fittingly against his chief rival, North Carolina, and the festivities surrounding the coach's send-off are shaping up to be unlike anything college basketball has seen before.
Tickets for Saturday's game against North Carolina are fetching prices usually reserved for the Super Bowl, with the cheapest seats on Vivid Seats now going for about $3,450 as of Thursday night, with the average price nearly double that, and reports of some of the best seats on the market for more than $50,000 each.
