UNI Tix Frustration Question

Re: UNI Tix Frustration Question

Khan4Cats...I am not really sure where the poster came up with wanting to be "seen" at BB games. I knew Coach Mac very well in college and good friends with. Same goes for Coach Jake and his assistants know them very well along with players & parnets. We make most of the games but not to just be seen...whatever that means.

Re: UNI Tix Frustration Question

Here's my take on the whole ticket issue... I'm just thankful to have had tickets for every home game so far. Mostly that meant getting my tickets ordered way early for every game...

As far as seating locations... I have always gotten non-premium reserved and we have pretty much sat in a different place each game on both the east and west sides (which has actually been quite fun as you get a different perspective on the game each time). I have never been disappointed with our seats - in my opinion, there are no bad seats in the dome. We even got really lucky at the last game and ended up with first row seats in section L and the game winning touchdown happened right in front of us!

I'm eager to see what seats we end up with for tomorrow's game.

Re: UNI Tix Frustration Question

Their computer system sucks. I don't have season tickets and if I can't get a ticket because it is sold out I have no problem with that and would not complain.

I do have a problem when I place an order and nobody can confirm my order and they tell me it is written down in a stack of paper. When you tell them you want tickets they should be able to tell you if they have tickets or not and provide you with a confirmation number. They did none of that. It is very obvious that UNI athletics needs a new computerized ticketing system. If you have ordered tickets for any other event that draws capacity crowds you would know what a joke of a system they have at UNI.

I have ordered playoff baseball tickets for 11 games that might never be played but I was able to get seat numbers and confirmation numbers at the exact time I ordered them. Why UNI cannot do this is beyond me. No I did not have season tickets to the baseball games but the season ticket holders got their shot at ordering all the extras they wanted before the public got theirs. When the games were not played my credit card got the refund automatically without phone calls or post-it notes.

Those that argue that people should just get season tickets are totally missing the point. The point is UNI needs a new fully automated ticketing system that almost every other areana/stadium has.

If you are sick of ticket threads then don't click on threads that are obviouslly about tickets.

Re: UNI Tix Frustration Question

I understand the frustration with ticketing. I agree with a previous post that communication with the public has been the biggest issue. People are generally pretty understanding if they just know what's going on.
As for UNIFan dropping your PSC membership, I truly hope you don't do this. Your PSC membership does affect your seats in the McLeod center and you will most likely get your seats moved if you do drop out.
And I also agree that, while it's human nature to always give to get something in return, the main benefit of the PSC is for our student-athletes to have the opportunity to get a great education at a first class institution like UNI.
Let's hope we have record season ticket sales next year and a record number of PSC members. Our teams deserve it!
GO PANTHERS!!!

Re: UNI Tix Frustration Question

As a season ticket holder, I believe that we should get priority seating. But I also think it may not be fair for us to be able to get additional seating beyond our season tickets before other PSC members get a chance. And that's coming from someone who has 6 season tickets and ordered 12 for the first round and 14for this round. Last week we actually had all 12 seats in a row. This week we have our regular 6 seats and 6 in the same seat numbers two rows behind. Plus the extra 2 in another section.

Imagine the nightmare THAT would be over there.

You process all the season ticket orders, then PSC orders (how many tickets each, only two? four? fifty?) then go back and in some order process the "extra" season ticket orders, then the general public? HA!

I wish students had the option to get season tickets.

I don't think they'd stop you if you paid for them yourself.
