Michigan ticket strategy

[UConn76]

I live in Minnesota but come back to NY/NJ on a regular basis for work. As a result, I've kept my football season tickets.

So I'm faced with two issues. The Maryland and Michigan are being played on back to back weekends.

I think I can pursuade my boss to let me work in NJ the week between the games and my wife appears to be OK with that. She'll come back for one of the games.

But my real issue then is trying to get 5-6 extra tickets to the Michigann game for my kids (who live in NY / MA) without going bankrupt. I'm guessing the amount of tickets that will ultimately be placed on Stubhub etc will be somewhat limited and will be pricey.

Think there is any chance UConn will get to a point where they'll sell any single tickets?

Will probably come down to how many points you have.

I sent them an email asking for 2 extras and they said in a couple of weeks they are going to give season ticket holders a chance to buy extra tickets.

I'll be on the lookout for the email...thanks

They are going to offer 3 game packages to Season ticket holders. Maybe MD and MI will be part of a package?

Michigan, USF (maybe RU/Thanksgiving), and Towson. No way they put the two best OOC games into a mini-plan.

If they have any common sense they'll make two separate plans, one with Michigan and one with Maryland as the cornerstones.

Or make Mich a 4 game plan and Maryland a three game plan.... That should sell a bunch of leftover tickets. How many actually attend is another conversation.........

Ended up buying 4 mini-plan pakages with Michigan, Maryland, and Rutgers. Not a bad deal.
Michigan game tickets on Stubhub were in the same price range.

3 game mini-plan packages are on sale through the UConn ticket office for "season ticketholder/donor" and "2012 mini-plan buyer or basketball season ticket holder".

Got via email "announcements" although it has been noted that some folks have not gotten either of the two emails.

More info here in another thread

I'd call ticket office.

I think it only cost $50. to be a "donor".

The "donor" minimum is now $100.
