Who is going to Houston?

Better off staying Downtown or area near stadium??? Have never been to Houston and could use the help

Downtown or Galleria. There is nothing by the stadium. You'll need a car if you just want a cup of coffee
 
So I can get from Greensboro flight and lodging from 3/31 to 4/4 for $2k. How much for tics, and should I tweak my dates?

Please hit me if you realize I’m a fan and would want decent seats.

I would not stay near the stadium. There’s very little around it in terms of good restaurants and bars and it’s not the safest. Wouldn’t say it’s overly dangerous, just not where you want to be when not at the games. And the hotels there are limited and not the greatest. If you’re beholden to a hotel try to stay downtown (expensive) or Gallaria area. If you’re open to an Airbnb, stay in the Heights, Montrose, EADO (within 2 miles of downtown) or near Rice. I live in Houston.
 
Does anyone know what sections UConn has been selling tickets in? Or what the likelihood of then having tickets left over to sell to a first year season ticket holder?

Can someone confirm if the $200 tickets through UConn are upper level or lower level?
 
Flight is booked, would really prefer to not rent a car, just need to figure out where I should stay.

Ticket situation will look very different depending on how Texas does.

you got it right. I spend winters in Houston. Double tix dump has started with Houston and TX out. We travel well. Miami travel$ well. Can't even guess on FAU. SD state...probably. There are tickets out there to be had and i believe some panic selling is a bout to start.

Probably lower level. But the more points you have the better they are

First time doing this but i know it'll all come together.

Curious at to the price of the tickets? Was it just the semi-finals or all sessions? Also, how are you getting these? Season ticket holder?

Same details as in the rest of the thread. Season ticket holder. Purchased during my allotted window.

Through the school tickets are sold for each session. $200 for the semi-finals. But when UConn wins they charge you for the championship as well.

Director level or above? I only ask because I am at Husky Level Season ticket holders and did not get an email or allotted window as of yet.

Sorry, but is that $200 for just UConn game or both games Saturday?

Where are people staying? I've got a room with my brothers (and father-in-law if Miami wins) at TownePlace Suites IAH on points but willing to move

Leave your father-in-law home for the mojo.
 
Word of advice for travelers. You don't have to stay in Houston where prices are sure to be sky high. When I went in 2004, stayed in Austin, about 1 hour away. Although at this point, even those windows may have closed

We saved thousands, literally

Just to be clear, 2004 was in San Antonio. Houston is 3 hours from Austin. But your point is a good one. Look at neighboring towns.
