On Thursday we were directly across the court from the UConn bench. On Saturday they switched the UConn sections to directly behind the UConn bench. Think that was the UCLA section on Thursday.
What hotel would that be?
It was the same for 2011 in Houston. Rice, Houston, TCU students were given tickets in the UCONN section free. I was sitting right behind them with tickets through the school that year. It is weird for such a great basketball school our fans and especially students don't travel well to big basketball events. Which sucks. UCONN section was maybe 1/3 filled of students which was kind of embarrasing.
I'm sure there will be a lot of empty seats everywhere and easy to find ones to squat in, but how do you move down to the lower bowls from the upper? We were in 600s on Sat, and could move down to 500s if we wanted (access from same level), but they were checking tickets outside to enter the lower concourses (300s and 100s). Can you move down once inside somehow?
Nobody was checking on the FAU and Miami side we were on. You might of gotten there early as we got there right around the start of the first game and they weren't doing any checking.
From the outside, to enter the stadium to begin with?
yes, mine are same in 122
The transportation is an utter catastrophe. Thousands of drunk corpses roaming the streets after the game because the 3-car game train can only fit 100 people.
just take the uber/cab
Thanks, I just went ahead and grabbed one on Seat Geek
People have been going to Little Woodrow's then either going over to The Whitehall to cheer team as they get on bus or go directly to stadium
Thank you guys!
There was something posted in another thread showing our student section was poor compared to the other three teams. Not sure about overall fan attendance.
Nope only time we had a ticket checked was outside initially just to get into the stadium. But nobody was checking tickets when walking through the doors. There was a ramp to or escalator to walk to get to each section. We did go check the 500 section out first since I initially had gotten seats there but then went to out seats in the FAU section my brother got. But when we went back down and entered from the outside door nobody checked us there. The fist game had already started by the time we went down there so maybe you just have to wait after the game starts.
I have to think Miami had the most as there was orange all over the sections including UCONNs, then FAU, then UCONN and then Sand Diego State. It was kind of disappointing. I will say that UCONN was kind of hard to tell since it seemed like they had fans spread out over more levels. Overall I was little shocked that we had a low representation but after the game there was a decent amount cheering the team on for their victory. I would say at least a 3K-5K strong. I hope there will be more at the championship game.
I was right across from you in the FAU section 109 and had a great view of UCONN fans. I even saw some Orange mixed in with them. What was up with all those corner seats 100 seats vacant in the UCONN section?
