Where can I get good tickets to the UConn/Syracuse game?

[Huskymaniac]

I live relatively close to Syracuse and may be able to get up to the game. Ticketmaster only has general admission level 2, whatever that means.

Ticketmaster is useless. According to them, there is a level 1 general admission but all seats are general admission. They implied that we could sit anywhere with level 2 general admission tickets. Does anyone know if that is true? Also, what section in the carrier dome is behind the away team's bench?

This is at the Carrier Dome....seats 30G....correct? Their attendance is terrible....they will be so happy to see you, they might well toss a few perks your way to get you to come in. Get in...wander around till you find a seat of your own choosing.

 

[Huskymaniac]

I haven't purchased them yet Blake as I am confused by "level 2" general admission and where that allows me to sit. Do you know which side the away team sits on? I have never paid close attention but I believe it is on the left side when in the stands behind the benches facing the floor.

I would show up at the Ticket Window an hour or so before the game and buy your tickets. They'll give you great advice and can probably get close to the UConn bench as well.

Two years ago, over 3,000 people attended the Uconn game at Syracuse. The dome is huge, but they close off most of it and do not allow people to sit in many sections. I think section 109 is behind the visiting bench.
The box office phone number is 1-888-DOMETIX.

Seating is general admission, first come first served. SU sits in the southwest corner and UConn in the northwest corner. Last time UConn came to town we sat two rows behind the bench and had a great time. We'll be there again, but missing Caroline!

How early did you have to get there to be that close? I live about 2 hours away and the gates open at 5:30. If I have to be there at 5:30 to get good seats I will have to leave my house at 3:30, which could be difficult.

Try calling the Carrier dome for some answers. They are better to answer than the useless ticketmaster

If you want to sit in the front row behind the bench let me know and I'll save you a seat. The view is better from a few rows back but you get to hear everything Geno says. Let me know.

I will also be at the game as I live near Syracuse as well. Two years ago I walked up to the window before the game and bought a courtside ticket for $20/each.

 

[afanincny]

I read in the paper today, parking is free and the ticket price will be $2! They are trying to get more than 250 people in the seats. They will have alot of high school teams in attendance which will save my vocal chords!

I called the Carrier Dome and just like 2010, you can buy a courtside seat for $20. And it's leterally just that, a seat right on the court. It's pretty cool....I'll be there. If for nothing else, to watch Quinten Hillsman spend more time complainging to the officials than he does coaching the team.

WTF?! They never mentioned that to me! Well, we got seats in the first non-reserved row behind the UConn bench. Lots of blue hair surrounded us but it was nice to be that close to the team. Got to hear some classic Geno during the game. Caroline autographed my son's UConn hat. Got a picture of me with Kara Wolters. I was the short one! Fun night and worth the 2 hour drive and back. $2 for a ticket was just crazy to pass up.

UBart, Hillman's complaining to the refs was so loud we could hear it frequently on TV. I would have sworn he was the official officials' coach. His idea of a good foul was anything that favored Cuse.
