The socioeconomic status of many of these kids' parents allows them a discretionary income that most middle class adults would envy.   This is not everyone, it's probably 25% of the kids who fall into that category - but these kids have money to spend and it's not all used on beer and blow.  I remember one girlfriend of mine got an allowance of $2000/month and she felt like she didn't have enough to get the clothes and stuff that some of her NY metro area friends had.  I on the other hand was running up the bill on my supercard and scrounging from my many rich friends :).     Point being the kids have money to spend.  Now they might not be the ones who are enticed by free tickets.  But the kids who are tend to be higher energy, leader types in the dorm (thinking irish kids from Mass) who will get everyone motivated to go including the kids who already have tickets but don't use them.          Now that I've used up my daily allotment of stereotypes and implied generalizations, I'll stop.     But I love this idea and really hope it works.  I think they should extend it to grad students and phd students and maybe even faculty as well for the low rent games like tulane and wagner.
