Now, just a reminder; sounds like Townson has tons of tickets if you don't get the NDSU ones; go grab those if needed. We need every seat we can filled with Bison fans!

1. Towson

Sec 124 Row 18 and Sec 120 Row 3 are the best available as of 3:53 CST. Sec 123 appears to be sold out.

It would sure be bad if people were waiting for tickets from the school and then didn't get them when they could have gotten them from Towsons allotment. The tickets seem to be going faster again from what I can see from the NCAA site as of this afternoon. I have called everyone I know and hopefully everyone else has as well.

The positive thing this year that I've seen is that Flash Seats are priced quite a bit lower than before. Saw some tickets go for $42 a piece earlier today. Some right now are still listed at $55.

This whole ticket process seems much more comlicated than it needs to be. I'm fine because I pay close attention to this stuff, but the average fan who just goes to games and reads the newspaper must be lost.

It has been complicated. We have tickets that were the 3 year allotment at $100 and some, hospitality tickets at $150ish, and tickets for $55 for this game only. I almost can't keep up on what I need to charge for the tickets for my friends.

Agreed, give all tickets to NDSU and let them distribute; problem solved!

I already know people who have canned the idea of going because the media is saying it's sold out, they didnt believe me when I told them there were 40yd line tickets

this place could have been full of NDSU fans, yet there are people buying on stub hub for 150+ because they think they have to

When NDSU sends out the emails tonight they better include a web address for the tickets that are still available through the NCAA. Why would media outlets be reporting a sellout??

Wonder how many people that requested tickets through NDSU already have tickets lined up or are actually waiting to hear before they purchase tickets elsewhere?

Someone drop a line to Kolpack outlining what is out there and how to get them; he is pretty good when I've sent e-mails to him on stuff on using it. At a minimum, he may deem it blog worthy.

Step 1: get nervous about NDSU lottery, buy on Stubhub for $150
Step 2: hear about NDSU lottery limit change, say "aw shit, wish I wouldn't have bit down on high priced tickets". Still covered though
Step 3: jump on Gumby's Towson ticket scheme, get better seats. Feel better, but have 2 extra tickets
Step 4: sure as hell, will now get my NDSU lottery seats. I'll take'em...if someone needs them
Step 5: NDSU fans buy up all the Towson tickets, a NDSU fan needs my 2 NDSU seats, a desperate Towson fan buys my Stubhub seats
Step 6: profit

i can say lots of these average people have found my twitter feed. I have had a surge of new followers and what stood out was they didnt have pics which usually means they are new to twitter. I go look at who they follow and a majority of them are choosing my feed as one of their first follows. Shoot some arent even following ndsuathletics but they follow bisonation. appears the word got out about my feed posting the link and people have joined twitter just for the info I provide on tickets

There's one thing everyone is forgetting in the ticket process for the NDSU allotment. Yesterday was christmas day and christmas eve likely resulted in a very short staff of people. My work was about 1/10 of normal on christmas eve so I am sure NDSU was similar. Taking this into account, they have all of one full day of work to get organized prior to today so give them the benefit of the doubt.

Anyone bailing due to no tickets need to really open there eyes and look around. There are tons of tickets available if you look around just a little bit. There were almost as many tickets available for this game as a normal NDSU home game, which is pretty crazy when you actually think about it.

I only wish that NDSU would have allotted their tickets sooner - like even noon today, then if I was told that I was not getting a ticket, I could have purchased a ticket this afternoon. I patiently waited all day to find out that we won't know until 8-10 pm, and then the door closed on the open tickets @ 4 pm. Now I have to wait again to find out that I won't get an allotment and then I have to scramble.:praying:

I paid a little more for tickets on the Towson side to make sure I get tickets just in case I do not get the TMer allotment. I'm sure there will be more tickets available from Bison fans that bought tickets just in case they didn't get any from NDSU.

I hear where you're coming from but I'm pretty sure the reason why NDSU is waiting until 8-10PM tonight to allot their tickets is because they're claiming the tickets from Towson's allotment that they couldn't sell by 4PM. Kolpack tweeted this about it: https://twitter.com/FGOSPORTSWRITER/status/416338319119613952


Towson returned some of it allotted tickets that NDSU will be able to claim. Doesn't sound like it's very many, though.

Pretty sure that means that those extra 400 tickets or so that Towson didn't sell are going into the NDSU pool that people requested through their Team Maker accounts. I wouldn't worry, tickets on the secondary market will be going for face value or close to it.

I'm thinking most people should be able to get tickets well below face value. Demand seems much less than supply this year with only Bison fans trying to get tickets. If you are selling and get an offer for face value or more jump all over it. If you are buying tickets start your offer at $20 and wait it out. This year is a buyer's market. Could you imagine what would have happened if NH upset the Bison? There might be 2k people at the game and lots of tickets unused in ND.

So then both schools allotments are sold out. The tickets the NCAA opened up previously were also sold out. So I guess the question is how many the brokers bought up and are floating around, how many people got tickets both through NDSU and the NCAA, and how many standing room only tickets they'll sell.

Does anyone know which side the team will be on? The first year we were on the west side with #2 ranking. Last year we were on the east side with the #1 ranking. This year we have the #1 ranking and the allocated NDSU tickets are on the west side. Since Teammakers have us on the west side is that the side the team will be on this year? I was looking at picking up more tickets, just wondering which side the team will be on? I am sure it will be all Bison fans throughout so it may not matter. Also will the tailgating be on the east or west sides as it follows the home side in general. Thanks
