please post good ideas that will get me the sweetest seat for my :kstategrad:

Scalper tix for rounds 1 and 2 are easy to get

Scalper tix for rounds 1 and 2 are easy to get
Our first day session will be much easier than the 3rd round session where it will likely be four very good fan bases battling for tickets. The best way was to get them for face value when I warned all of you a month and then again two weeks ago.
-
bought mine on sprintcenter.com yesterday. as far as I know there were still some available this morning. probably should've done that.
-
Jack someone who already has them.

this is the kind of innovative thinking I am looking for. keep it coming.

They are sold out now. I will scalp.
-
they are going to be expensive as crap
-
yeah it will be insane. three power programs. two local programs. wisky has a good fanbase too. I'm excited.
-
:bang: I effing knew I should of bought them when MIR told us to
-
i was going to buy them about a month ago, but then i realized i'm a poor. :frown:

I'll be out there with ya.

bought mine on friday night :cool:
-
I'm going to scalp Friday

Wont KSU get an allotment?
-
could try to order form Ole Miss or whoever wins the Dayton game from their allotments
-
could try to order form Ole Miss or whoever wins the Dayton game from their allotments
Um, I'm on the Ole MIss site...$80 gets you tickets...says you will only becharged for rd 3 if they advance...not sure if the $80 is just for round 2 session then?
-
Already ordered my tickets. Should be arriving soon :cool: See you fellow goemawers Friday and Sunday.
-
bought mine on friday night :cool:
Bought mine an hour before the selection show :gocho:
-

Um, I'm on the Ole MIss site...$80 gets you tickets...says you will only becharged for rd 3 if they advance...not sure if the $80 is just for round 2 session then?
would give you tickets for the friday K-State game for 80 bucks. I went with it. if it makes it passed hotty totty priority point people i have a shot.

So, basically the only way I'm screwed here is is Ole Miss beats Wiscy, and we lost to Boise...then I'm gonna get charged $80 for rd 3, and I''ll have to scalp em to some squaks...
Best case scenario is we win & Ole MIss wins, then I get tix to Sunday for $80...
I don't think donors are a factor...My order confirmation came through, didn't say it was contingent on anything...seats may get better/worse depending on donor purchases I guess, but it looks like I'm there for sure... ****EDIT, I just saw the disclaimer on the initial page that the orders "may not fill"...deadline for donor orders is TUesday AM, so I guess we'll know by Wed.

I'm assuming the "pickup at will call" means at Sprint cENTER

Welp, I aint driving to Tupelo to pick em up, so I hope so too!
-
Woof better be in KC.
-
Also I'm sure the Boise LS winner will have tickets available.
-
Also I'm sure the Boise LS winner will have tickets available.
Yea...should know about the status of these before the play in game is over, so I figured I'd double my chances
-
Yes, the Ole Miss will call will be somewhere in downtown KC, all teams will have their individual will call. Sometimes I have seen the will call at the team hotel.
Also I wouldn't bet against Sprint Center and the NCAA still having seats. There were absolutely seats held for group sales. If they didn't sell out of the group sales allotment they will be released at some point during the week.

Went through Cal State Fullerton couple of years ago for the Omaha game(s). Looking to do the same for Boise St/LaSalle
-
As of 6:30 SprintCenter still had a few in one upper level section, but they were $198.

Nope.

Bought two session passes back in October :gocho:
-
This is the guy who tweeted at D Scott originally.
Sam Byrd ?@SZByrd
@DScottFritchen KState fans can buy $80 lower level tickets through Ole miss online right now.
Sam Byrd ?@SZByrd
@DScottFritchen I guess those Ole Miss tix are NOT guarenteed. Ole Miss donors have until Tuesday to buy also and then they notify you.
Sam Byrd ?@SZByrd
@bethy_brickell Wouldn't bother, just found out tickets are not guaranteed. Didn't know this when I initially tweeted.
Sam Byrd ?@SZByrd
@Bunker_Mania @KSTATEfans The tickets through Ole Miss are NOT guaranteed. Their donors have until Tuesday to order still.
-
Nobody said they were guaranteed. You won't get charged if you don't get tickets. Best option right now until the BSU/LS winner.
-
so one session will be our game and wisky/ole miss, and the other session will be KU/WKU and UNC/Nova? if so I'm selling my pass for the KU/UNC/Nova session for sure, should be able to get a good price.
-
As of 6:30 SprintCenter still had a few in one upper level section, but they were $198.
Nope.
then they lied to me, as it showed tickets available.
<shrug> Bought some through ole miss.

Correct
-
Scott very well may have been wrong, it wouldn't be crazy at all of you saw tickets. Like I said Sprint Center will or may have already release tickets throughout the week.
-
I'm not because they showed me tickets available too right after(under 5 min) we were announced tried to buy and check out buyin just one and it said "tickets not available) even after showing sections available. Called the number on the website and they said they were currently sold out of tickets and I could try again Thursday to see if schools return tix

it did that to me trying to buy for the big 12 last week. just kind of a crappy website.

I sure hope Ole Miss doesn't have a bunch of donor pre orders lotsa people on twitter buying and pimping out buying from Ole Miss.

I just purchased Limestone and my tix through Ole Miss, and they didn't say anything about not being guaranteed. The email confirmation they sent me doesn't say anything about them not being guaranteed.

according to a buddy someone on GPC supposedly called Ole Miss who told them they are getting 500 tickets, and 150 of those are for school use, the rest will go to seasoon ticket holders.

Ole Miss doesn't get money for them. Maybe a couple bucks of service fees.

My thought exactly. It's "we can sell these and look good or turn down money and tell the NCAA that we can't sell any tickets".
I mean they are really ugly rednecks, but they aren't brain dead.
:rolleyes:

Hey Mikey, let me know how it works out :lol:

Why would you buy tickets from Mississippi? There is no way their horse and buggy would deliver them on time.

straight from the horses mouth
Mike Mxxxxx:
Hello, I placed an order for some NCAA first round tickets. Do you guys have a sense of if non-season ticket holders/donors will receive any of the allotment?
Thanks!
Welcome Mike Mxxxxx! Your request has been directed to the Ticket Office department. Please wait for our operator to answer your call.
Call accepted by operator TicketOffice2. Currently in room: TicketOffice2, Mike Mxxxxx.
TicketOffice2:
Not yet. You will be called or emailed soon if we are unable to fulfill your order.
Mike Mxxxxx:
today you think?
TicketOffice2:
Yes.
Mike Mxxxxx:
great. do you know how many tickets were allotted?
TicketOffice2:
Less than 500.
Mike Mxxxxx:
oh man, that's a lot less than I expected.
Mike Mxxxxx:
well, keeping my fingers crossed!
Mike Mxxxxx:
thanks for the help!

Ok. I'm hoping that we all luck out, but I'm not feeling too confident on my end.
-
Why would you buy tickets from Mississippi? There is no way their horse and buggy would deliver them on time.
They are going to deliver them via steam boat. The horse and buggy only has to make it from the Missouri River to the Sprint Center.

I heard Admiral Akbar was flying them over in an X-Wing
-
Ok. I'm hoping that we all luck out, but I'm not feeling too confident on my end.
COME ON OLE MISS!!!

I would be more comfortable if they notified you that we DID get a ticket.

My buddy who I use to work with in radio sales, just had his first baby last week. He called me yesterday, begging me to buy my tickets through him. I could tell he was in a pinch. So I confirmed a deal with him for two tickets, $165 total for Friday, Session 1, lower level. I wanted to take my new friend, so I was pretty excited. I called her yesterday to tell her the news and she couldn't stop thanking me. Three hours later, I get a text from my "buddy": "Sorry, guy. I sold your tickets to my brother-in-law. He gave me more. You'll be able to find something cheaper at Sprint Center anyways. Sorry, bud". Yeah, I look like a jackass now. I had to tell her this morning that the tickets aren't a for sure thing anymore and I'm still doing my best to buy some today. :frown:

Mrs Emo won't sit in the way up high seats ever again.

That's a breech of contract, FWIW. You should sue him.

Well I didn't get lucky enough to get tickets through Ole Miss. I'm not worried though, I wouldn't think the market for scalpers should be anything too outrageous.
BTW, will they be selling beer at the Sprint Center for the NCAA's? I noticed they didn't during the Big 12 tourney..

Its gon' snow

Tidbit on getting good tickets Reply
I will not be attending the KC regional this weekend, as I will out of town in Dallas. However, my father and I have attended many regionals over the years (as both WSU and KSU fans) and I have a tip on how to get good tickets for you. We have used this tip many times over the years. In fact, I am a bit hesitant to even share it, but I want KC packed with purple this week. Unless something has changed this year, the NCAA requires each team in the field to purchase a minimum of 500 tickets per school. For a team like KU or KSU this is no big deal. Those schools have ticket demand way beyond that number and try to purchase as many tickets as possible to fill demand. Unless you are big donor for KSU, you are going to get screwed on getting tickets. However, for a small school (the 15 or 16 seeds) this 500 ticket requirement can be a real financial burden to them. My father and I have landed some amazing tickets over the years by introducing ourselves to the athletic directors of these small schools and befriending them. A few kind words on the success of that small teams year to the AD goes a very long way. For the KC group of teams, that will be WKU. Perhaps WKU travels well and will have no trouble selling their 500 tickets. But if history is correct, it is unlikely that is the case. You often see those 15 or 16 seeds with very few fans behind their benches during their games. They just don't travel well. Often times these schools have to eat the extra tickets they don't sell. My suggestion would be to find out what is the team hotel for WVU, and ask to visit with the AD. Tell them you are willing to buy two extra tickets off of them at face value. DO NOT get greedy on how many tickets you are trying to buy. If they think you are a scalper or are going to sell the tickets you are screwed. You then promise to sit in the seats, and will cheer for their team during the game. Many times over the years, that has resulted in my dad and I getting tickets within the first six rows behind that teams bench. We are often even given free t-shirts of that teams colors to wear during the game which we always wear. We have a great time with it, and their fans adopt us as their own for a few hours. We cheer like we have been lifelong fans of that team each time, and always high five the other fans after big baskets etc. The team we are always rooting for loses the game of course, but we have fun and just landed great seats for the day. After the game, you simply take off their t-shirt and put your purple t-shirt back and enjoy your great seats for the next game. These ADs often have tickets to all sessions by the way. Making that AD your friend can lead to some great tickets for a day or two if you work it right. Anyways, that is the trick we have done several times over the years. My dad is a real friendly and easy going guy, so it always works for us. The key is to simply be nice. Good luck to those who try it.

Many times over the years, that has resulted in my dad and I getting tickets within the first six rows behind that teams bench. We are often even given free t-shirts of that teams colors to wear during the game which we always wear. We have a great time with it, and their fans adopt us as their own for a few hours. We cheer like we have been lifelong fans of that team each time, and always high five the other fans after big baskets etc. The team we are always rooting for loses the game of course, but we have fun and just landed great seats for the day. After the game, you simply take off their t-shirt and put your purple t-shirt back and enjoy your great seats for the next game. These ADs often have tickets to all sessions by the way. Making that AD your friend can lead to some great tickets for a day or two if you work it right. Anyways, that is the trick we have done several times over the years. My dad is a real friendly and easy going guy, so it always works for us. The key is to simply be nice. Good luck to those who try it.

It's a lot of work for the possibility of them have tickets to sell for other sessions. What other game is in KU's session?

just got cancellation email. Glad I bought 4 from KSU this morning as backup!

Did anyone have a pending charge on their credit card, then get a cancellation?

yes. Also, the cancellation email I got shows a refund of $12 less than the initial authorization, but I assume that will resolve itself.

Sprint Center site has upper deck behind the basket for our session on Friday for $66 a ticket. I just bought Limestone and I tix. We may try to upgrade later through scalpers or whatever, but nice to have a backup.

After the dejected Wisconsin/Ole Miss fans walk out, there should be a bunch of open seats down lows....besides all those unoccupied by second session fans too lazy to scalp.

I found a pair of uppers for $150. He needs to know asap. I don't wanna fling a filet in front of her face and then toss rump roast on her plate. :frown:
uppers are on kstatesports.com for $66 + 25 fee fwiw
I that the NCAA thing they have posted?
I linked it earlier in the thread but here it is again -- http://ev12.evenue.net/cgi-bin/ncommerce3/SEGetEventInfo?ticketCode=PR%3AKSU%3AMB12%3AMO%3ANCAA&linkID=kansuse&shopperContext&caller=PR&appCode&prc=NCAA&ppc=NCAA
bought one last night, not sure if they're still on there or not
Looks like similar to those still listed on the sprintcenter.com for those who don't mind the nose bleeds.

It will be easy as crap to move around for our session guys. Buy the cheapest upper levels you can find and go down to the lower level.

BTW, will they be selling beer at the Sprint Center for the NCAA's? I noticed they didn't during the Big 12 tourney..
important question
They don't sell beer to the general public at NCAA sanctioned events.
So was our game against UF not sanctioned? I got pak'd in my seat.

I believe the actual terminology is "NCAA Championship events".
I don't why the Big 12 thinks it has to follow the NCAA's policy for the Big 12 tournament and the Big 12 FB championship game, I am pretty sure the majority of conference postseason tournaments and games sell beer to the public.

What skipper said. Events that the NCAA put on. They will have beer in the luxury boxes and at hospitality events, that's it. Have you guys never been to tournament games as a 21+?

What are you talking about with Baylor? I hope you aren't insinuating that Baylor's view on alcohol is shaping conference policy on this subject, because you would be wrong. I can tell you for a fact that many Big 12 schools did not sell alcohol before during the Big 8. ADs and the CEOs of the conference don't want alcohol at their events because they don't want to deal with the liability issues that the NFL has to deal with. Colorado and West Virginia have decided that the increased revenue is worth the potential liability issues.

Usually too pak'd to remember which ones sell beers and which ones don't. think I remember that it is basically the Big 12 tourney and the NCAAs where they don't. All others, they do.

Fanning, I referred you to a job opening and met you at a tailgate("Hi I'm fanning, you probably think I'm weird because of all my posts but nope, just an ordinary guy"). We are basically IRL friends now!!!
I'll be there with a philly as well and the only thing she knows about gE is that my last relationship ended when I met some gE'rs in Chicago so I'll just say we went to K-State together!!!
Any plans on the pregame? I'll probably get down there around 11.

Well said, friend. :thumbs: She has an obligation early in the morning, but we'll probably try to get to PNL at the 10ish range. Let me know bud. I'm thinking big beers at McFaddens.
