Looks like tickets for the newark game go on sale tomorrow, even though its not on the cornell schedule yet

Interesting. Cheap seats are 40% more expensive than the cheap seats were for the last BU game @ MSG. Seems out of whack.

That's especially true when it's in Newark instead of NYC, Colgate isn't as big a rival as BU (to this day), we're already playing Colgate two other times this season, and this one's non-conference.  They have absolutely no hope of selling out at these prices.

Right. I wasn't as explicit, but these are all the factors that led to my "out of whack" opinion.

Come On! Everybody knows what a draw Newark is. Why I could take the family, maybe take the train, do some Xmas Shopping and have a nice meal before the game or go to a Museum.  Why we might just spend the night.

With prices like those, I would hate to be an enemy of Cornell. Yikes! That is steep for a single college hockey game ::bugeye::.

[Trotsky]

I have a feeling the ticket prices are dictated by the venue, and the Newark people have no understanding of a college hockey game.  They see "hockey" and think "Devils crowd... brokers and neurosurgeons."

I wish they'd finalized this earlier... I'm not going pay to change my train ticket back to NYC after the holiday for Colgate. Especially after I moved it when they started talking about it and changed it back when it looked like it wasn't happening.  This time, the price jump just isn't worth it.

Your response is exactly what I expect many to have. Whoever planned this probably saw the numbers the MSG game and thought this would be comparable.  It's not for many reasons.  Going to the well too much and expecting the non-rabid Cornellian crowd to follow every year is pushing it.

For those still curious about general admission tix, they go on sale at TicketMaster at 10AM.

I like how they're using the marketing logo from last year's BU game.  Nice work Ticketmaster.

Well I bought a bunch from Cornell this morning.  Out of curiosity, I noticed you can't by upper level seats on ticketmaster.  Are they waiting to release them until lowers are sold?  For those of you not familiar with the rink, unlike the Garden where there are no good seats, every seat is a good one.  I got lowers for the Cornell-Colgate game, but will also be happy sitting in 227 for the Devils games this season.

I'm in the same boat as Hockeychick470.  I booked my flights the day before they announced that it really was happening.  Only giving 7 weeks notice doesn't really help travel plans when it's over Thanksgiving weekend.  As it is I have to fly back to Manchester, NH instead of Logan due to crowded flights.  A pit stop is Newark is definitely not worth changing flights.

It's canceled out by the fact that you have to watch the Devils, though.

Will the "countdown to... " clock be revived? (thank you eLynah organizers)

Sorry it took so long, but I finally got the ELynah calendar populated. If you're already subscribed, no need to do anything. Otherwise,
