Hello to Tony and/or anyone else out there that has requested tickets - haven't seen much in the way of communication back and am wondering when to expect the tickets that I paid for or if to expect the tickets? Feedback would be appreciated.
 
TonyC: Wonderful job as always and a generous gesture to Boneyarders. Thanks!

I will send you an email to secure two more tix since we are importing two Canadians to give Kia a boost. Mrs. Kibitzer's sis & hubby will travel from Barrie, Ontario, just for these games! And Oh yeah they will also be here for Mrs. Kib's birthday.;)
 
Tony - you are doing an incredible service to all of us. I can't imagine what your desk looks like with all of our info fighting for space with the rest of your life!
Can't thank you enough for taking this task on, and if we should ever be in a bar or restaurant together, your money will be no good, the evening will be on me!
 
Geno Auriemma talks U.S. women’s basketball team

"They like being coached. And they like the fact that there's a lot of pressure at stake. And they love pressure. So, those two things — they enjoy being coached; they know the games mean a lot, I mean, it's for a gold medal — they're unbelievable to be around. I mean, if they weren't, I wouldn't have done it again."

I wonder if this becomes Geno's retirement gig, or if this is his last go round as the Olympic coach. I could see either happening.

I would say this is almost certainly his last turn as Olympic coach. He's the first coach to stay on for more than one quadrennial, and I just don't see him committing to another four years. I have a feeling the next one might go to Staley.

I would be shocked, though, if he retires from UConn anytime soon.

I would not be surprised to see it go to Reeve as an alternative to Staley.
And yeah, I think this is the last one for Geno, though if USA had the choosing I think they would have him stay on like the men have with K. But I think as was reported the chance to work with Sue and D for another 4 year period made the difference, and I'll be surprised if both are there for the Worlds in 2018 and if either make it to 2020.

I hope Jerry Colangelo can be as persuasive as he has in the past and will be able to talk Geno into one more go-around. I think it does wonders for recruiting (well OK, 4 NC's in a row doesn't hurt either, but....)
 
I will have tickets out this week. Still getting orders, still requesting more tickets please be patient as I am rapping this up. I got some tickets waiting on more. We have between 125 and 135 people coming.
 
Tony

I didn't want to bother you at the last minute and... trying to squeeze in MSG and the Caramoor Fidelio...so I got a pair on my own.

Thanks for your efforts.

Michael
 
TonyC really appreciate your efforts. Feel awful about people switching up on orders. I would say...if you have $ in hand send out tickets...anyone else is too late.
 
Tony you are certainly being a great sport with all the changes coming in, but you posted last call on June 28th. Take the money in hand ,send out the tickets and let people figure out how to get tickets on their own.
Just saying....

That would make it really easy if it worked that way. It doesnt work that way.
 
Mailed tickets yesterday. Looking ahead to the Regionals in March. Those of you who have given me your email addresses will be receiving information when I receive it. I have ordered a block of tickets and I am working on some possible special events. We will have over 140 people attending the Olympic games. I expect more then that for the Regionals.
 
I am especially eager to attend. After a couple arduous try-ons and delicate adjustments, today I actually received -- and even momentarily stood on -- my new (prosthesis) leg! So my next great thrill -- I hope! -- will be to stand for our National Anthem next Friday at about 7:00 p.m.:)

Thanks Tony. I appreciate all the time an effort that this must have taken you.
 
I received our tickets today, Tony. Thanks so much for this and for your optimism, every year, all season long!
 
Optimus Prime comes through again. Thank you Tony. Tickets received today. See you in Bport.
 
Got the tickets! Thanks again Tony for working with the mad folks to bring their obsession to reality.
 
Got my tickets too! Thanks so much Tony... your hard work and dedication is truly appreciated! See you Friday!! :)
 
If anyone wants semi-final and gold medal game tickets for Rio, I have some.
