I'm So there!

 

[Jimmy Serrano]

They're not letting people attend who aren't season ticket holders?

poor move IMO. No enough people care about the games, let alone an event like signing day to limit it to only season ticket holders.

 

[uconnell]

done

 

[minidarren]

Ever think that they are hoping the energy generated by the Diaco hire is going to create demand for this event? So they are using it to their advantage to generate season ticket sales at the same time? I don't believe it is a bad move. You want to be able to attend special events, buy season tickets.

or join the UConn Club… BB ticket holders will be there as well..

 

[uconndennis]

It says UConn Club members too.....isn't that anyone that donates at least $50 per year? regardless of season tickets

$100 - "Any donor contributing $100 or more annually to any sport, endowment, capital project, or entity that supports the division of Athletics is automatically a member of the UConn Club and is eligible to receive member benefits"

The place will be packed. Can't wait.

Remember it only holds, what 1,000 people? Full house for sure.

 

[CTMike]

Registered. Can't Wait.

 

[Jimmy Serrano]

I'm in plus 1.

 

[Husky92]

Man, I work the first Wednesday February every year. I think this happened last year too.

So......what can I do to petition the NCAA (or whatever 'autonomous' body will be in charge next year) to change the date of National Signing Day?

 

[Nostical]

The place will be packed. Can't wait.

Darn. I'll be in CA on business. Full report is needed from you!

 

[uconnkelly]

Count me in! Look forward to seeing the coaching staff interact with the fans and catching up with the players at the autograph session. Best news I've gotten all week.

IMO anyone who is a true UCONN football fan would also be a season ticket holder. Why would a casual fan give a hoot about going to signing day. Season Ticket holders can invite guests to signing day. Real UCONN fans buy season tickets. They are very reasonable and also support the University.

 

[Dooley]

So if our tickets are in my friend's name and my friend lives in FL (moved there last year), I can't go to this?? Damn! I might have to join this UCONN Club. I have never been to a Signing Day before but I really wanted to go to this year's.

 

[ucjoet]

Myself plus my other 5 in my season ticket group are in. Always a great time. should be even better this year getting to hear HCBD and his new staff talk about recruits and program

It always cracks me up when some pompous fancies themselves Supreme Judge of Who Real UConn Fans Are. I live on another continent, so for me season tickets aren't really practical. I support the school in other ways. That "real" enough for ya?

They don't check ID's so just have your friend sign up for X number of people and then give his name when you go.

Thanks sportsart. Funny, I thought about doing this too!

 

[Lewconn]

as usual I'm in plus 2 more (Son and Son-in-Law). Have not missed one yet...

 

[uconntailgater]

I'm in, plus one.

Can't speak for the OP but my take was that he was talking about folks in close proximity. I'm in Nevada and am pretty sure he wasn't talking about guys like me and you for whom season tix aren't very useful
