Fan Bus going to Creighton!!

[JCPanthers]

The Athletic Club has reserved a Charter Bus to carry Panther Fans to the Creighton game on Wednesday, February 9th!!!! More information will be coming but here is what I know:

Cost will be $45 that INCLUDES your game ticket!! They have reserved a block of tickets so hopefully they will all be together. The bus will be leaving sometime around 1:30 pm - 2 pm west of the UNI Dome, stopping in Des Moines at a "to be determined" location, and then hopefully getting to Omaha in time for the Alumni pre-game party at Old Chicago. Gametime is 7:05 PM.

You will be allowed to bring food & beverages on the bus, as long as you help keep it clean.

Seats are limited so contact the Athletic Club to reserve (prepay) your seat. The ticket office may eventually handle the billing, but I don't know for sure yet. As information becomes available, I will sure let my good friends at Panther Nation know! Spread the word to ALL Panther fans as we will need a certain amount of people signed up by February 1st in order to avoid the bus trip being cancelled.

If you have any questions or would like to reserve your seat contact:
Kelly Bockenstedt at 319-273-2471 or [email protected]
Megan Robinson at 319-273-3819 or [email protected]

I posted a link to this thread on the homepage. It sounds like a lot of fun. I hope there is a good turn out, this is a really big game!

This Would Be So Much Fun!!!!

I wish I could go...but there is no way I can get out of work that day. It's financial aid season and I'll be at high schools all week long helping families apply for financial aid!!! I will TiVo that game...I think it's on College Sports TV! Go PANTHERS!!!!

I AM THERE! And I'm bringing a ton of people with me! We will make our presence felt in Omaha! (Am I invited to the Alumni party even if I haven't graduated yet?)

I'm gonna try to go and grab a couple of people to go with me... but even if I can't make it, I encourage everyone to hop aboard the bus!! Creighton will be a big game and you'll also get to watch former Panther player Darian DeVries coach the Jays! And how great will our players feel when they look up in the stands and see a huge group of purple. Start signing up Panther Nation!

Great igo4uni, now try to get a few more of your friends to go with you so we can get this bus filled. Remember we'll need enough people to sign up by Feb. 1st to make this trip happen....so spread the word. The Athletic Club will be putting together a flyer and will also have it advertised on their website as soon as they all get back from break.

Any updates on how this thing is filling up? I hope there is enough for one bus...and maybe 2 would be great!

Everyone in the Athletic Club office has been off for the holidays. I'm going to contact them tomorrow to see where we are at.

JC-

Any new news?

[JCPanthers]

I've got in my hands a flyer that the Athletic Club is almost ready to send out and distribute. They are still ironing out some details, i.e. where to pick up in Dsm, departure times, etc.

I do know that the ticket office is now taking orders as I booked mine today. They've had a few people already reserve their seats, but there are plenty still available. You will need to give them a credit card # to reserve your seat, but they won't charge it until after February 1st, when they know for sure we'll have enough to go.

They will also have information on the UNI Athletic website.
