Student Season Ticket Information

I can't do it. I started to write a post in this thread but I just cant. Every year this thread starts and gradually evolves into the same boring history lesson. There's a search feature on the site. It will provide more information than my post anyway.

Back in my day, the seats were just logs and tickets were pieces of bark.  Ice was still ice, though, having been invented the previous year.

What, with this excellent opportunity to be funny, you can't? :-O

He was being post-post-self-reflective funny.  There's a search feature on this site.  It will provide many previous examples of this type of humor. ;-)

When Harvard got called for tripping, a cheer arose: "Thou, thou, thou."

I'd like to point out that the drop in interest that came after the '05-'06 season was accompanied by a doubling in student ticket prices when they dropped the SA funding

Anybody else try to buy graduate student tickets this morning?  The link is now gone ... sold out?

Edit: link is back.

I tried to buy them and the following occurred.  I clicked on 'hockey tickets' and selected '2' from a dropdown menu as to how many i wanted.  I then clicked 'submit', only to be told that 'i must select a number of tickets that i want'.  I then picked '2' again, only to have the same issue.  This happened about 4 times.  Then i reloaded the page and I can't click on it anymore.  

I'm thinking technical difficulty, but if they are sold out and I was unable to purchase because the website couldn't recognize '2'...

EDIT: Just got off the phone, and evidently it was a technical difficulty.  As of my conversation, evidently no tickets have been sold, as the site wasn't working.  So, clearly, tickets are not sold out.

Regarding the graduate student tickets.  I purchased a pair early this morning.  My question is what section are these seats in, or are graduate students a part of the seat selection process.

[andrew r]

If I do have the choice, what is the best section to be in?

That, if I do have the choice, what is the best section to be in?

For those curious, the computers didn't crash this morning!  Instead, by 6:31, I was saving my confirmation and going back to bed.  We'll see how Friday ends up

How did it end up?

The line was still pretty long. My girlfriend was number 478 and she didn't get her tickets until after 9 p.m. The ticket event started around 7 p.m. and people had numbers up to 900. Once again, the student tickets did not sell out.

People were pretty reluctant about the changes in Section A because most students really want seats as close to the ice as possible. General admissions tickets don't guarantee seating position so people either blocked in B or D. I heard, at one point, the ticketing staff were begging people to take Section A tickets because no one was taking them.

Also, they changed the season ticket shirts this year. Instead of cotton t-shirts, they gave out these polyester long-sleeves that has the "C" bear logo and "Cornell" on the front, with the Lynah Faithful logo on the back. The sleeves are also shorter and wider than regular long-sleeves, like an actual hockey sweater.

Here's a picture of the shirt that I took with my phone.

I'm glad I have my four years of Lynah Faithful shirts.  I'm not sure I like this new idea.  At least keep the Lynah Faithful logo on the front.  It's tradition.
