UConn officially in Fenway Bowl v UNC

[ElPenguino]

Anyone know when we have to give our allotment of tickets back- I called the UConn ticket office and that wasn’t helpful at all. Really want to buy through the program to support them, but seat locations aren’t great. They aren’t making this easy

I would think there’s no chance Bill coaches the bowl game. He

My guess is that he is on the sideline as an observer, though.

Just bought my 4. Looking forward to it. Now gotta figure out parking.

That is my current question. Just bought two tix for the charter bus from the Town of Bolton commuter lot but if they do not get the minimum of 35 it won't go. So then the choice is to drive all the way in past the park and get off the Mass Pike as it comes up out of the tunnel and use a garage near there, or park at the Riverside (Grove St.) MBTA lot and take the T in. What did you decide?

My guess is he'll be in a temperature controlled sky box watching from above/

My only argument against that is that doing so would not give him a feel for the team. So I doubt it. He would be looking to maximize his immersion at that point.

The site Uconn sent me to isn't showing me any tickets available over 2. I have 11 in my group so that isn't going to work. I guess I have to call the ticket office.

This whole thing with Belichick has me ticked off. In a year that 1) we have our best record since our Fiesta Bowl appearance, 2) we get a bid to a decent late December bowl (at least we should have a good number of fans in attendance), and 3) we've only "lost" 1 major weapon to the portal so far, we have to be upstaged by the blasted ACC again with UNC's head coach hire. That conference can't ever let us have nice things! >_< I hope they get frostbite turf burns playing our boys and we finally get our victory over a P4 this year.

more attention to the game is good for us

Agree. Mora vs Belichick is a National storyline and I fully expect to see the Hoodie on the sidelines as HC, not as "an observer". He has more than enough time to get up to speed.

Had to buy our tickets through Fenway because the Uconn link didn't work. I don't want to hear that Uconn didn't purchase its allotment for this game.

Sounds like we burned through our allotment, got more, and sold those too.

Call the tix office. They will help.

FYI there is a charter bus going up from the Bolton commuter parking lot. Only $57 per person. The town is looking to fill it and one does not need to be a resident. To go, register for the trip on the Bolton Rec web site.

Just like that UConn is in one of the 4 or 5 most interesting storyline bowl games outside playoffs.

The ACC ploted with UNC to hire Belichick during UConn’s 8-4 bowl season. The ACC hates UConn because it’s brand overshadows the ACC conference. The ACC is the weakest of all P4 football conferences and the basketball side of the ACC is a disaster. It’s a conference on life support.

I spoke with the UConn tix office. They will keep getting tixs from the Fenway as long as we keep selling tixs. So call the tix office. They have tixs.

Any sense of tickets sold?

We are in Section 12 of the grandstand right next to the UConn section. Should be fun. I do have one concern though. Aren't some of those seats obstructed views?

It appears that way. I bought mine without realizing that haha. I guess the benefit is if it rains?

The only common opponent we has was Duke and we definitely did better against Duke the UNC did. I like our chances in this game.

Not in terms of total number. But UConn has had to request additional allotment of tixs due to selling out the first and second wave.
