The garden belongs to those who bleed blue

I've been saying for quite a while that it is our Garden. We are going to settle a number of debts this tournament (I posted Michael Corleone in another thread earlier today). We had to play UNC in Greensboro in 1998. We had to play Michigan St in Detroit in 2009. Now they (if they get that far) have to try to beat us in our Garden! Let them try.

UConn in a regional at MSG is an impossible ticket. Michigan State is there, god forbid Carolina wins. No chance for average joe.
I fall into the average Joe category and I'm about to book a flight to Scotland with the parents so.... eek.

Want to be there so bad, but the 3 times I've been there, UConn has lost (UK, 2011 St. John's, NC State). I'm staying home for this.

I figured you'd go then, for the sake of your bracket, you SOB!

Just picked up 2 from Stubhub, I am expecting prices to go up after the games tomorrow. I wouldn't miss this for anything, going to be a long week....

If you guys are seeing $220 on Stub Hub right now, BUY THEM UP!!

I can tell you what happened in Buffalo. They started at resale around $135 and they kept going up and up and up. Nosebleeds ended up in the $200s on Seatgeek, but on craigslist the cheapest to be had were $160.

Do not wait if you're seeing $220 right now.

Just got my ticket in the 200 level for $235! I figure that tickets for Sunday can be had for cheap from opposing fans Friday night. I was in Memphis Thursday and I got tickets for the rest of the tournament from a Memphis fan for $40/game ($80 total for Friday and Saturday). I know it won't be that cheap but hopefully $100 at the most

Tickets are creeping towards $300 for the 400 sections. Is that too much?

Seatgeek.com was the way to go. $300 got me in for section 110.

My suggestion would be to buy Sunday's tix too. Good investment.

Not sure how it will work in MSG, but my experiences in regional finals is you can just scalp off the losers in sweet 16. This could be a whole different ballgame since people may want to stay for experience. Thoughts?

Could not get tix from the losers this weekend either in Buffalo.

I would not count on buying loser's seats. In other words, if you experience anything like what I saw in Buffalo, pay up. I guarantee you'll get your money back should the unthinkable ("Knock on Balls"!) happen.

I'm hoping to have a group of 5 or 6. The tickets floating around 300 now sound great. Need to act before that goes up too much!

Just bought 2 for Sunday's Session 2. Section 223, row 20 $202/ea. They're e-tickets so they're easy to re-sell in the event of the unthinkable happening on Friday night.

That's cheaper than Buffalo even.

By the way, there were no E-tickets at all available in Buffalo.
