    Big 4 Classic/ISU fan ticket share

    So, I'm an ISU fan, but I was wondering if anybody wanted to share some tickets to the Big 4 classic this winter. I'd like to get 2 tickets for my wife and I at the 70 dollar price point but with 2 kids at home I don't want to make a day of it. I was wondering if anybody wanted to share 2 tickets.

    I have until Friday to order them through ISU, or I can share with one of you guys if you want to buy them in the Panther section. Please respond to the thread or PM me. I'll be checking it tomorrow and Friday, and if I don't hear back from anybody by Friday afternoon I'll probably just buy some in the ISU section and then keep my options open for sharing with 2 people from here if anybody is interested.

    Thanks guys.

    How are you going to share tickets? I'm pretty sure they don't allow pass-outs.

          They do sell one ticket for both games. I (or one of you guys) could buy the tickets, we could split the costs, and we could just meet up on gameday after the ISU/Drake game and hand them off. Lots of fans do this for the Big 12 tournament for example with all-session tickets.

            but the all session tickets (ive never been to Big XII but many others) come in separate physical tickets. this is essentially a four hour event so I think you will have one ticket that will get the end torn off when you enter.

              Right. One of you uses the ticket to get in for game 1, and then after you hand it off the other finds out they can't get back in because the ticket is already used.

                Thanks guys. My bad. I wasn't aware that is how it worked. It's really too bad they won't allow that.

                    Well I ended up not getting tickets, so it's not exactly perfect for them either.

                      Maybe I'm just not understanding their process/failsafes, but isn't it standard practice at just about every sporting event, movie, etc. to be able to leave an event and then be able to re-enter, as long as you show your ticket stub regardless of whether it was scanned, torn in half or whatever? How would they know if the person "re-entering" was the original ticket purchaser or not? Fill me in guys - what am I missing here? Is it because once the ticket is scanned, it's no longer scannable and you can't leave at all to prevent people from doing this? That seems awfully picky.

                      Find out what the other team wants to do, then take it away from them.

                        In St. Louis you can leave between games but they mark you as you leave and the ticket you used to originally get in is no longer valid.

                          i would say standard practice is that you CANNOT re-enter

                            Very few sporting events allow pass-outs any more.

                              I wish they would allow it. Honestly if they think I'm paying 50-70 bucks to essentially watch ISU play Drake they are out of their minds. And the 25 dollars seats SUCK.
