I, too, received my tickets from the big brown truck today and am a little more than disappointed in my seats (2). They are in section 112 row k - can you say deep corner behind the backboard???
As a long time (as in 32 years) season ticket holder with over 1000 'points' one might hope that their seats would be somewhat better. Yeah, Yeah I understand UConn only gets an allocation etc etc. I just get the feeling that unless you are an 'insider' or a mega-donor (by definition, an insider) I will never see 'good' seats.
Well, I feel better for venting. Anyone else have seating thoughts?

That's why I never have bought the package deal. I buy tickets for individual
sessions (quarterfinals and up). It may cost a bit more, but I can always get
something between the baskets.
As Ed suggests for the Big East games individual tickets and even packages are probably the way to go. The issue as the UConn folks have told me is that they have no control over what the XL Center allocates (which is lunacy). No desire to make ctfr feel even worse, but I do not have his history and my seats this year are in lower section (110 DDD, which is court level and to the side of the basket). Once you get in a section I think the XL center just seems to put you as close to where you were the year before it seems to me. Anyone wanting to hang out for some of the playdown games, pm me if you wish for a partner.
