Uconn vs. Gonzaga pre-onsale NYC

[SamIamCassell]

Which apparently I missed!

I called the ticket office yesterday wondering if I could still buy through UConn. They said no the cutoff was Friday. I missed the email too. I agree with everyone saying the prices will go down. Around Halloween the prices should drop. Nobody from Spokane is coming to NYC 2 weeks before Christmas.

I’ll get in the door for $25 15 min before tip.

This game should be played in Hartford or Storrs. Start scheduling home and homes.

I don't know about $25 but I would definitely wait if you are just looking to get in. MSG around Christmas time will still sell well.

Got an email today confirming my ticket order from when the presale first launched through UConn I have absolutely zero recollection of placing that order

Its part of the Hall of Fame Series, the promoter (Positions Sports) schedules/books the locations for the series throughout the country

No one’s paying to see Gonzaga in NYC. Maybe not $25 but you’ll find lower bowl for a lot cheaper than currently listed.

The unfortunate part of CBB scheduling. You need these neutral games to get NIL money but lose out on games on campus. Every program has to contend with it.

Ordered 4 last week. I wanted the upper corner seats at $77 per ticket. I called my rep and she looked over ehwre they were at with sales and was very confident I would get my allotment fulfilled. I received my confirmation email today. $77 for a corner upper (lower rows) is a great price for anything at MSG in 2024. I would say we will see comparable prices for comparable seats at the xl center this season.

I perused courtside seats for the fun of it. $ 2,500 and $ 3,600 per

One hour before tip, they'll be selling for like $ 500 like they were for the BET

I placed an order for 4 through the school as well. Since we don't get many big name OOC games at home, traveling to NYC is a must. Especially since I love MSG. Indiana, Texas and UNC last year were all better than any OOC game available to season ticket holders

I believe that changes going forward. Then again, maybe the school makes a bunch of extra money playing these marquee matchups in NY

Gonzaga's 6'7" wing, Steele Venters (expected to play a huge role in Few's offense this coming season) was lost for the season to an achilles injury. He had just come back from an ACL tear.

Brutal.

Jesus. That is Fremantle level terrible. Hate that.

Got 2 tix in 225 row 1 and going with my old UConn roommate. Cannot wait!

Gonzaga's 6'7" wing, Steele Venters (expected to play a huge role in Few's offense this coming season) was lost for the season to an achilles injury. He had just come back from an ACL tear.

Brutal.

Two awful injuries in consecutive years. Hope for a full recovery and a return to college basketball next season.

At 6'7, Venters averaged 15.3 ppg at Eastern Washington and hit 37% of his threes, so he's a deadly spacer w/ size.

In his place, the addition of Khalif Battle is huge as my guess Mark Few will roll out a starting backcourt of Nembhard, Hickman and Battle, which is pretty darn good.

Behind those three, they've still got more depth than last year. Expect Dusty Stormer to be even better in year two and he'll backup the 2 and the 3.

The addition of sophomore Emmanuel Innocenti is intriguing too. Playing under Billy Gillispie in Tarleton State, the 6'5 Innocenti was an All-WAC Defensive Team pick and averaged 7 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists and nearly 2 steals per game, making him a versatile glue guy backcourt weapon.

 

[JerseyAlum]

WE the crowd at MSG need to erupt when we go on a 4 or 6 pt run to add to the pressure Gonzaga will be under guarding our team. Storrs South will be on fire.

Going off on a slight tangent, but does anyone know when March Madness tix go on sale?

It will be packed depending on our seed/opponent. There weren’t many UConn fans at Barclays for the 1/16 game. Can’t speak to the NWestern game but I heard it was close to even.

I was at the Northwestern game. The crowd was majority UConn, but a surprising # of NW fans turned out. I'd say it was like 65/35 or 60/40 UConn fans. Wildcat fans did get pretty loud the few times they had something to cheer for.

Good to know. I’m still a bit salty that I bought Barclays tickets way in advance and then the get in price was like 20 bucks with empty seats everywhere. Maybe the AMP would be different.

Yeah I COULD see UConn fans not going also due to the fact were spoiled now and as a high seed people assume a Win. LOL. However I think the AMP is much easier to get in and out of than Brooklyn is/was. So that's reason I think if they are put there more would travel. But I could be wrong.

I would say any arena in the surrounding states is easier to get to than Barclays (by car at least).

 

[August_West]

There is no comparison to what the demand will be if we are at the Amp compared to what Barclays was. Casuals are scared of Brooklyn, and I admit that it is a slog to deal with for people not familiar with it. It's not an easy venue to attend for a quick in and out from a couple hours away. Providence on the other hand is very easy and a lot less intimidating for those same average Joes. So many people who wouldnt dare deal with the logistics of Brooklyn have no issue dealing with Providence. If we are slotted at the Amp it is going to be insanity in that city for a couple days.
