Uconn vs. Gonzaga pre-onsale NYC

WOW! That's crazy expensive, no? $220 for anything in the lower bowl (behind the baskets). $121 for cheapest way up and behind basket.

I looked back at my ticket for the IU game last November. $125 in Section 120 which is similar to the $220 tickets for this game. And that was for two games!

Looks like they didn't release the majority of the lower bowl. Those would have to be $350+ (Section 109 is $308.50). I can't imagine that they will sell out with these costs, but people seem to have more disposable income than I do!

Agreed, definitely ticket bastard or whomever increased these exponentially. I get that this is a big game and UConn is super hot commodity right now... but a bit surprised that costs are similar to the Big East Tournament and damn near double Indiana game last year.

yes but its not guaranteed. Based on donor level. So thats the rub there. But agreed. Its cheaper on Uconns site

Seats will be assigned based on donor level and priority points within donor level.

Placement of order does not guarantee exact price level will be fulfilled. If your order cannot be filled at the requested price level, you will be allocated seats in the next available price level and the difference will be refunded to original form of payment.

Tickets will be sent via mobile delivery to the email address on your UConn ticket account.

Paid half this price for Final 4 tix
That’s a joke

I don’t think they are on the Uconn site any longer (not on mine under neutral site games). Might be better off waiting and getting seats a couple days beforehand. Also, kings / Rangers are playing that day at 1pm.
 
I got Indiana tickets for 22 bucks behind the hoop. Jimmy V tickets in 200s-Row 1/center court for 150. Definitely going to wait and see. Highly doubt there are many Zags fans making the trip.

Yup. Too rich for me. If I want to go to an MSG game this season, I'll save my cash for St. John's since I haven't seen a St. John's/UConn game at the Garden since Kemba's freshman season.

My Indiana ticket last season was cheap. I forgot exactly how I got it, I got bottom level corner seats from a promo code promoted here. Like $70 all in for a pair?
 
Will the game be on ESPN? ESPN just released an article about the best non-conference game to watch for every Top 25 team.

Dec. 14 vs. Gonzaga at Madison Square Garden: UConn's blowout of the Zags in Seattle last December was one of the early signs that the Huskies had the ability to repeat as national champs. Gonzaga should be better this season, however -- and this game will still be relatively early in the season for UConn. This will also be a familiar opponent for Saint Mary's transfer Aidan Mahaney.

We are the show now. Put us in msg against anyone, sold out and perfect atmosphere. Gonzaga was smart to schedule us. I think they play Kentucky as well. There is no one besides duke that won’t schedule us. Hurley must be turning down offers for home and homes left and right.
 
The TM fees are the worst. $200 each for lowers didn't seem too bad before the 20%+ of fees were tacked on. Seattle was certainly cheaper last year, but I'm sure there's some NYC (and B2B champs) markup happening too.

No way this game is packed out. Might as well sit on it and put the pressure on them to drop prices

Prices on the secondary market are already as cheap as the ticket master ones. That shows some people already willing to take a hit in the selling fees just to break even or lose a little. I agree. Tickets will plummet. Just wait.

Saturday night 2 weeks before X-mas, good luck! You might want to see if you can make a (refundable) back-up reservation in Stamford, Westchester, NJ or out by LGA if you are travelling from far away and waiting for price drops (doubtful)
 
I’m amazed how much cheaper the tickets were through UConn vs TM. Usually they are the sameish

440 for Brooklyn Bridge Marriott might go for it. Lodging in NyC is not pretty, especially now.

Are they still available through UConn? I don't see them on the website. (I'm a season ticket holder and I'm logged in.)

I'm not sure they sell tickets to away games online. They usually send you a letter for these MSG games.

I received an email in early June, the cutoff to order was 8/2. I believe they only sent out to certain donor levels. My ticket rep said I should be receiving an email this week to let me know if they're able to accommodate the section I chose
