When looks like Saturday. Trying to figure out where we are playing.... and the time. As far as I can tell it's still tbd

I'm going. Waiting for an email from UConn. They told me people who gave full donations for season tickets this year get first shot.

I let them keep all my donation money but applied my tickets to next year. Do I still get called?

Probably not in the first wave from my understanding. Did you get an email from them Friday?

Only email I got from them Friday was an offer for a free Dunkin gift card.

I received second round tickets from NCAA last Friday due to my past purchases for tournament. Unfortunately, my tickets are for Sunday so no chance of me seeing UConn. Since the schedule is pending, I have no clue who I'll be watching but I'm still happy for the opportunity.

@NDakotaHusky Do you have another epic road trip in your sights? I feel your mojo rising...

Yes, I will likely be going if I can obtain tickets.

Got my tickets through UConn. If you went with option 1 for season tickets you got an email to buy.

 

[gampelcrazies]

UConn will be at Mackey Arena (Purdue) Saturday night 7:00

Got an email on Friday
Also received my 2nd Covid shot last week but won't be going-it was a coin toss
Was gung ho for the NBE tournament but of course no fans

Perfect. Thanks!

Tickets at stubhub range $150-$500 per ticket just for the UConn game. Wondering what face value is for the tickets you got thru UConn?

Wow stubhub is such a rip off. Might have to call my UConn ticket rep tomorrow. Thank you!

FYI UConn just sent an email to normal donors now to buy tickets.

Interesting. I called them around noon and the rep told me right now tickets are only available to donors that chose option 1. And that most likely I won’t be offered tickets because they go by donor level. Still have not seen an email even though I let UConn keep my full donation this year with option 2.

Hmm. I got another email today that didn’t talk about option 1. If you qualify login to your account and go to the buy tickets page for basketball. Should be a tab that says ncaa tournament tickets.

That worked. Really weird I wasn't notified by the UConn ticket office. Good thing you suggested I check. Thanks again!

Now I have a dilemma... What would you guys do... Would you take the chance of not seeing the team play in the big dance at all and just wait until the Sweet 16 / Elite 8 to buy tickets? Or would you take the sure fire route and buy tickets for round 1 and 2? I would stay in Indy the whole month if I could but for most this is impossible.

 

[UConn_Top_Dog]

And here is another thing to consider... What if one buys tickets and the team gets a positive covid test result? Would UConn pull out of the tournament all together or still play with everyone who tested negative? With the way covid has been handled at UConn I fear they would pull out of the tournament all together. Then you are stuck with tickets you need to sell.

Update: UConn will provide a full refund of the second round game should UConn lose in the first round. I am assuming they would issue a full refund for both rounds if the team withdrew from the tournament due to positive Covid test results.

My plan is go to the first weekend. Skip second weekend. Get back to Indy if they reach FF.

That sounds like a good plan. Still tempting to see them cut nets down in the elite 8 which is much more probable to happen. Tough decision. But it makes it even more difficult to choose because of the fact that we havn't seen this team in person this year. And to see Bouk play would be awesome.
