Oooh! Nice one bisonmike. That's dang near as much as the season tix. Oh well, what choice do I have...

[bisonmike2]

remember the Sioux Falls arena only holds 6K to 7K people so I wouldn't be surprised for this tourney to sell out fast. Lets not let those SDSU folks hog them all. If you are for sure going to be there you should pick them up sooner rather than later.

Do you think NDSU will have any tickets reserved for students to buy?

No idea. If they do get any reserved it won't be much.

FTA - "Mike Sullivan, executive director of the Sioux Falls Sports Authority, said that about 4,000 seats will be up for grabs for the March 7-10 event, with the rest saved for participating schools and corporate sponsors."

If they are selling 4k that leave about 2500 to be split amongst the participating schools and corporate sponsors. Are there 8 schools in the tourney? If so that's only 312 tickets per school not holding any for corporate sponsors. Better safe to just buy ahead of schedule.

Remember they are all session tickets and they are good for all the men's and all the women's games. Just take Bison Dan's approach and get another job. If you don't you hate the Bison and you have a loser mentality or something like that.;)

As far as I can see it, this will be the best $90 I have spent in years! The boys and coaching staff had their first meeting (pep ralley) Tuesday afternoon and their main goal for the season = The Big Dance! GO BISON! ;)

Fans of one of the teams must be buying them up......my buddy tried to buy on line tonight and can't get anything in the lower deck. ;)

[TheBisonator]

You mean to tell me I'm gonna have to get tickets SOON, or else they'll sell out??

Unless they did a major arena overhaul in the past 4 years I wasn't aware that the Sioux Falls Arena had an upper and lower deck.

[roadwarrior]

I think the lower deck refers to where the bleachers were years ago when Augustana played there.

Ahhh, that makes sense. I hope the tourney doesn well in Sioux Falls. It will only help Fargo's bid to get the tourney games at the Dome. Lots of people slam the b-ball atmosphere in the Dome but the facility is a million times nicer than the Sioux Falls Arena. Can you imagine a game with NDSU vs. SDSU with the big dance on the line? I gurantee that the dome would be rocking.

Ya, but $31.4 million later, it'll work much better! :D

[roadwarrior]

But the Summit League tournament cannot be held in the new arena. It must be in an arena not the home court of one of the teams. So if it is ever in Fargo, it will be in the football arena.

Ah, touche. Didn't know that little bit. :hide:

Thats a conference rule. Each conference gets to make the call. The higher profile conferences always want a neutral court. The ACC Tourney is often times held at UNC-Greensboro. ;)
