Illinois State - seating?

[mebisonII]

Does anyone here have tickets for ISU-Red yet? Just wondering where you are sitting and I am pretty sure I'm coming over to the game and want to get a couple tickets ordered now.

This is the one the Chicagoans were talking about coming down to, right? Any coordination among you of where to get seats?

I'm in section H. (GA seating)

This is the one that we're working on getting a Chicago group down to.

Gcity said that the plan for the Chicago group will be for anyone that wants to go, to buy their own game/train tickets, and then meet for the trip down.

My plan was to wait to buy my tickets until the email from the alumni center that he and Sherri are working on comes out to make sure that I'm sitting with the group.

I know that the seating chart on the ISU website says one sideline is all GA, but I don't know if you're still "restricted" to a section or if you can sit in any GA section. Since Tbon has a section, I assume you're still supposed to stay in one section. Of course, if someone knows that a GA tickets gives you GA in any GA section, then I'll probably buy mine earlier just to have them.

Be sure to post up on here if you do come up with a section. I won't be on the emails since I'm not coming from Chicago area.

I was wondering the same thing about the GA tickets, maybe I'll call the ticket office tomorrow.

Two years ago most of the Bison fans were in sections G and H (which were general admission), although a good portion of that side of the stadium was mostly empty. This year the game is their homecoming, so maybe they will have more fans.

I was planning to go to this game but I ended up getting an assignment to wear stripes at DePauw that day. I'll be there in spirit though!

Ordered my tickets this weekend, GA Section H. I should have a group of 7 or 8 going to the game. Tailgating lots open at 7am!!! Game at 2pm.

Anyone else planning to attend? How is the Chicago group's plans coming together?

Got my tickets yesterday for Section H. 2 to 4 of us coming over from Missouri. Should be a heck of a game.

So a heads up on where everything is at in the planning stages.

As far as tickets I think as long as you get in the GA section we should all be relatively close, section H seems to be the place to be.

There won't be an official tailgate for the game because it is just too costly to do one for every game. What will be available is a pre-game (I am thinking about 11:30-1:30) meet at a nearby bar/resturant. The alumni association will send some NDSU gear and hopefully we can get our own section/room in the bar.

I am gonna be taking the train, and I will post it again for those interested (and it will be included in the email to all the Chicago alumni that will hopefully be going out next week). I will make sure that any email information that goes out to the "Chicago Metro Area" alumni will also get posted here on the board, and if anyone has any questions feel free to PM me.

I'll probably buy tickets within the next couple days, for section H hopefully.

I think I'm bringing 1 from here, possibly meeting up with some more people in Peoria, and coming on over for some tailgating. Depending on what happens with the Peoria group, we may try to hook up with the bar/restaurant group as well.
