Just now I was able to buy tickets - think maybe they're releasing just a section at a time, but great seats available.

Went back to website and they had some must be releasing them slowly. SECTION 101 ROW 3 YES.

I had called 2 places this morning and worked the net and all said they had none. Was a little upset. Now I feel better and it is thanks to you I would of just walked away.

When no tickets were available at 10 AM on Saturday, I emailed Jon Albaugh who is the contact for the event. He immediately emailed me back saying that Ticketmaster had some system problems, and to check Ticketmaster later. After about 60 minutes passed, I was able to buy my tickets. Section 101, Row 3, Seats 1-2. Jon also emalied me back to tell me that tix were available.

To all BYers.....I plan on hosting a pre-game party at my favorite watering hole, Bokampers, before UConn's first game. All are welcome, posters, Mods and lurkers. We will then all head over to the arena for the game. Details and directions closer to tournament time. Go Huskies..!!

Does anybody know where the team will be staying? At the Paradise Jam, it was great to see them away from the arena.

Which Bokampers?

Ok - i just bought mine. This should be fun if the family don't kill me!
Now David - how many bedrooms do you have? I am assuming you have lined up all the neighbors as well to provide extra bedrooms. I do like very strong coffee in the morning and my scrambled eggs on the dry side. Fresh squeezed orange juice ONLY, and for a night cap - single malt scotch, preferably an Islay but I can survive on Macallan, or napoleon brandy.
It really is very nice of you to put us all up.

On a serious side - would be nice to know where teams will be staying and/or any information about hotels in the vicinity when we get a little closer to the date.

I already booked our hotel at Embassy Suites Fort Meyers. There is also a Hampton Inn close by as well!

I know it's early but I assumed teams would start blocking rooms soon and they would fill up!

 

[DogWarden]

The teams will be staying at the Hyatt Regency Coconut Point Resort & Spa in Bonita Springs. Cheapest rooms are $239.00 per night. I'll stay at the Hampton Inn.

Dog.....they are building a new Bokamper's at Coconut Point Mall, which is near where the team will stay. My plan is to use that location, if they finish it by November. That whole area is 10-15 minutes from the arena.... more details to follow.
Go Huskies...!!!
