Yo, Tatanka, you were being facetious, right? It's like 320 miles from Norman to Manhattan !!! A walk in the park to NoDaks

[SamsRams]

Weird Iowa State isnt list in the SRO seats for sale. I think they are worried NDSU will set the record attendance for their stadium

[IzzyFlexion]

I'm gonna scalp.
Bringin' a "working girl" should help garner some attention from sellers.
BTW......I gotta get way more selective in that dept.

[MankatoBison]

Now THIS is what I've been waiting to hear! .... looks like I might be going to the game afterall haha... do we know where these SRO tix are for? like is it "ust go find a place in the concourse and hope you can see the field"? or did I hear something about a hill you can sit on or something?

[SamsRams]

look at stubhub map, it has it there. Right next to section 28 and I believe right by the NDSU team entrance

[MNLonghorn10]

Oklahoma sucks at everything so yea, not shocked.

The article says they are on the NE Hill. It's just a grassy hill where you can bring a blanket and sit.

Thanks for posting this SD. I've been checking their site daily waiting for this. Now I need to decide if I'm gonna go the online route or in person at the ticket office.

I work with a die hard OU fan from Okie City and gave him crap this morning about the Sooner faithful not supporting their team and using their allotted tickets for the K state game. He said that isn't a big game for them? I told him the average okie fan probably did a map quest search to Manhattan NY and figured it was too far to drive.

They do know how to travel NE/SW if the road is straight although NoDak has the longest straight stretch of highway in America if you discount a couple of curves were the section lines don't match up.

So, given your explanation above........
Because it's not in purple but the use of purple is implied......then how can we be sure that sarcasm isn't at play with your "99% of my posts"
Hey Rock......what the hell do you call that ???? I'm going with CIRCULAR REFERENCE. Kinda like a roughed up "chicken or the egg" question.

Gaads. Another roundabout discussion. :facepalm:

[BisonNeil]

I find it interesting that for non-conference games, the SRO tickets for the NDSU game are more expensive than the others. Is this because they perceive they have a better chance of selling SROs to NDSU fans because we travel better than UMASS and the Cajuns, or because we are dumb enough to buy them :D

I would buy them. $35 for a sold out Big 12 game on prime time national TV? Its supply and demand. Big time schools do that

I think you are onto something here.

[SDbison]

Did anyone at bisonville get some of these tickets? Looks like Izzo and Kolpack did not help the cause.........never mentioned these tickets went on sale this morning.

[KSBisonFan]

I just tried again to see if any are available and the online system said 'Unable to secure seats in this Price Level'

I got in right away at 8:30. Tried again at 8:34 and got that message.

[hattonbison]

I got thru online right away and got that damn unable to secure tickets. Frustrating. Got thru on phone and by the time the ticket guy got all my info he tells me it is sold out, even tho I told him right away NDSU game. I have never been so mad in my life. I will be there just will wait for prices to come down. And when we win it will be so sweet due to how ticket sales went with this game.

all sold out games have brokers working the streets beforehand. you can get a ticket. i'm sure. you'll just have to pay the fair market value. these guys aren't hard to find.

I want to thank SD Bison for starting this thread, without which I would probably not be attending this game (and certainly not at face value pricing).

This is just awesome. I can hardly wait to lay out the blanket and watch the game from the hill. Old school and pure win.

My chance for better tickets fell through so rather than take 4 reserved singles in different locations I got 4 general admission.

This is why real Bison fans should follow @bisonation. I sent out 3 tweets announcing this news as well as a tweet a week before telling people to be on the lookout for these tickets. Also started a thread here but it only got a few views. Good work starting this thread SD!

You guys probably already know this... but Oklahoma didn't receive an allotment for the NDSU game.
K-State said, that the visiting teams only receive tickets for the games that they are playing in.
Glad that some of you rec'd tickets today!

[1998braves64]

I think people were referring to Oklahoma's allotment that they returned 500 of their 1500 and how OK being just south of Kansas (the equivalent of NDSU fans traveling to Brookings) they (OU) were only able to sell 1000 but NDSU sold their entire allotment.

I laughed and then cried at the thought of someone asking the ticket office for seats to the NDSU game that Oklahoma returned to KState

Nope - they were just asked why Oklahoma doesn't use their allotment... and in their answer, they stated that there was confusion re: the ndsu game & tickets returned. They also said to watch the k-state ticket exchange.

The Big 12 mandates 4,000 visitor tickets for conference games so OU sold 3500, not 1,000.

[Tatanka]

The fact they returned any tickets unsold is sad IMHO. Appreciate the clarification.

Wow. There are 54 of the North Hill GA tickets on Stub Hub now starting at $89!

[PlainsBison]

I would assume some people will tailgate at the designated area, and others will choose to tailgate with the K-State crew.

I checked this out online. It's actually close to the edge of their tailgating area.

[SamsRams]

My guess was 50-50. 50% of SRO tickets went to NDSU fans and 50% went to people trying to make money off NDSU fans. Looks like it was more 85-15 with NDSU fans winning

[gotts]

tickets arrived yesterday

Only 500 SRO tickets? Seems like they have more room?
