Pack the Dome!

Re: Pack the Dome!

Per my PSC weekly email:

PSC members and season ticket holders will have preferred access to remaining seats between the 30 yard lines starting on Sunday. Use promo code provided in your original ticket letter to gain access to the tickets. Any unclaimed tickets will be released to the general public on Wednesday. Go to www.unitix.uni.edu or call 319-273-4849 for tickets!

Really? Seats don't go on sale to the general public before Wednesday?

no wonder we've had low attendance number. Last year we SOLD OUT before wednesday.

Yes, but if that's everything between the 30's, that's a TON of seats.

Everyone needs to tell everyone they know about this game. Offer them a ride, chip in towards a ticket, or whatever you feel you can do to get this done.

There is no excuse for a less-than full house on Friday/Saturday. NO excuse.

Not to start a p--ing match, but in another thread the stated excuse is clear: economics.

That's true. Hopefully the extraordinary event of the biggest home game in history pushes enough people to swipe their debit card.

Gotta give Farley a lot of credit. Even with the disappointing attendance, he manages the sincerely thank the crowd for their enthusiasm on every post-game show. He truly believes it's a big part of the game.

I think a lot of people have stayed home so far because of economics and some doubt about UNI's ability to make a run. I think that changes significantly for the semis. I think the crowd increases to about 14k for this weekend. Still no sell-out, but a much larger and even LOUDER crowd.

Re: Pack the Dome!

We had season tickets. We then purchased playoff tickets as soon as it was announced and had them emailed to us each week. They told us they would automatically bill our card if we kept winning and hosted another game. Will this not continue now? If not, I want to purchase today to get good seats. Ticket office is not open for phone calls until Mon. morning.

Should be the same setup as far as season ticket holders who reserved their seats, as it was for the first two rounds. It would be highly illogical to deviate from that system at this point, since it seemed to work just fine for the first two rounds.

Re: Pack the Dome!

Let me clear up something that I kind of brought up and made confusing (but has since been discussed).

I talked to my people, and the said that from now until Wednesday, PSC members can get their tickets b/t the 30's now. Once Wednesday hits (not sure on what time), those remaining tickets will be released to the public.

As of right now, any average joe can pick up tickets for this weekend's game, but it will be from the 30's on. Still, the 30 is a solid place to sit. Just wanting to clarify that.

Re: Pack the Dome!

As of ten minutes ago, the only tickets seemingly available for two seats together, best available, is in R-Q near the field. Randomly picking other sections, including nosebleeds, are unavailable.

If that's true, that's a terrible policy.

Re: Pack the Dome!

Giving preference to those who support you the most financially? Taking out the students, and with 3,000 season ticket holders, that's maybe holding about 2,000 tickets back for those PSC members. There are no more 'premium' seating, and I think all season tickets are b/t the 30's. I dont think it's as much as you would think.

Re: Pack the Dome!

Maybe it is only a couple thousand seats, but when I'm Joe Recliner, and I decide I want to pay 50+ bucks to take my kid to the game, and I get all excited on Monday and call, only to find out I'm stuck in bad seats, maybe the fifty bucks doesn't sound like a great deal any longer.

PSC member get plenty of benefits. At some point, however, you have to decide you're not going to kiss their behinds at every opportunity.

The goal for this game should be to sell the most tickets possible as quickly as possible, not to rub a few bellies.
