Thanks guys for no one helping me out with my ticket request. Looks like I'll watch at home.

That's OK though, it'll be the first time my father and I get to watch the Bison together since The Infamous Game on the pink turf.

I wouldn't give up, someone might help you out, probably even get you 2 so your pops can go too. Did you pm some folks?

who do you pm? I've posted twice on here and nobody has pm'd me either. It's frustrating at times because you have to massage your computer like a woman and then twist her nipple at just the right moment to get her to have an orgasm (in otherwords you have to do the right things at the right moment to get a ticket). I only want one too and if someone has 2 to give to nator and my buddy I would gladly do that for him. He really wants to go but can't afford the scalping prices on CL.

I guess if it was me personally, I would PM roadwarrior or CAS. Helps to get your name out there, give them your cell so someone can text you if they hear something.

Pulling a DaveK. I would also pm Unbison, since Lakes always has a hook up also.

Thought about that but figured they probably have enough people hassling them for tix right now... I tend to try not to impose on people too much but if they want to help me, please could they (or anyone) PM me. I might try a couple other avenues tomorrow too if I can't get SRO ticket.

It's a Bisonville family imo. Just return the favor to them somehow some other time. That is how I treat it I guess.

Right now I'm planning to do that... but the way the limited amount of tickets have gone on gobison.com the last few days I want to keep other options available. (yes I know you were replying mostly to nator but probably to me too)

By Sunday night, I had 20+ requests for tickets from people that had missed out initally. Somehow, I managed to get every last one a ticket. So tickets were available.

Yes I realized that they were available back then, I just thought it wouldn't be that hard starting Monday to try to get a ticket... if I could go back I would have bought it Sunday noon and ate the $1.50 and been done with it, but I decided to "save" him $1.50 and buy it when I picked up our tickets on Monday since I didn't think on Sunday that they would sell out in a matter of a couple hours, when we've been struggling all year to sell out and the other two playoff games seem to have a fair abundance of tickets left up until friday.

Nator, can one of your FB contacts get you a field pass or a player ticket?

(just trying to think of ways as my few tickets have been committed.)

Question for those who made the online ticket purchase work, once you get in the waiting room do you still need to hit refresh or does that bump you to the back of the line? (if I remember right it seemed there was an automatic 30 sec refresh) Or is it the luck of the draw of getting a refresh just as someone jumps off. I got pissed at my cell phone this morning for some reason it went from 7:59 to 8:01 (that 7:59 did seem kind of long?!), so I think that caused my issue.

THIS! Show up at the tailgate. I have never seen a game ever where there weren't people at the tailgate getting rid of tickets. Life happens and plans change. WORST CASE: Nobody at tailgate has tickets, so you have an awesome time at tailagate and then watch game at an NDSU supporter. (bar/eatery)

I just went through the tickets wanted threads in the ticket exchange. Over half of them have found their tickets for the game, so I deleted the threads. There might still be a chance to find some! Dont give up.

I am also looking for a ticket for a buddy if anybody knows of anyone.
I couldn't believe the prices people were trying to get out of their tickets on CL, ridiculous people would do that. This is supposed to be a giving time of year!

Zillow.com had a "Make me move." price that you can post for your house back when the market was super crazy. The idea is that it's not really for sale but at some theoretical price a person is willing to surrender their home because the money is just too stupid to pass up. There's probably some of that going on with these tickets.

"I'll post them out here for enough to pay for a trip to Hawaii and if someone takes them off my hands, fine, but I'm not really expecting anyone to actually bite."

Their actually advertising precisely how much they value Bison football. There's probably an undergraduate economics paper to be had here.

:rofl:
Too bad I teach 3rd grade and not Econ or I would jump all over it.

Hopefully these same people looking for a trip to the islands also plan on yelling till theyre blue in the face at the dome when nobody bites on their overpriced tickets.

I have 2 GA tickets for $40.

(sorry, Loonies not accepted). Let me know if you want them Bisonator.

I would buy 1 for my buddy if Bisonator doesn't buy/want both.
