Tickets?

[Jimmy]

Am I the only one who thinks it feels like information for the line is really late this year?  I mean tickets were already sold on this weekend 2 years ago, and the information for the line was at least available last year.  Info has to come out sometime this week...right?

[calgARI '07]

It is definitely late.  I'm guessing that they might not be giving any sort of warning this year to further weed out the facetimers.  It has to be next weekend or the weekend after.

I feel like disaster is about to strike.

****Warning - Unsubstantiated Rumor Coming Up****

My undergrad cousins have heard a rumor that they may allow each student to buy only one ticket.  Completely unsubstantiated - but that certainly would cut down on the facetimers!

Well, you'd sort of have to hope that's the kind of thing they'd announce in advance of the line-up, 'cause otherwise it's going to create Yet Another Angry Mob (tm) out of a hockey ticket line.  The time to find out you can't buy a second seat adjacent to yours for your fiancee/sibling/best friend/chewtoy is not when you get on line and they're in class/in the hospital/in Belgium.

or have it the weekend of the red-white game and have everyone in line go to the game...which would be an awesome idea

Last year we selected the tickets on Saturday Oct. 1st (I'm fairly sure that is correct).  I remember it was the weekend before I got sacked with a number of prelims.  So if last year is any indication I don't think it's very late.  However, If Athletics doesn't post some sort of info in the next few days I'm going to get rather nervous.

Hah, perhaps they'll just get rid of the student season ticket system altogether and make people wait in line every Friday morning for tickets.  That would be awesome. :-P

I honestly think that is what they should do.

I agree...Plus I think they should issue general admission tickets.  This would reward those who show up early and force students to, at the very least, show up on time for once.  The only issue is leaving your seat during periods--there is no way to ensure it will be open/available when you get back.

Only facetimers leave their seats for any reason! :-P

Watch the pep band slowly expand to fill all of section A...

Just to refresh my memory, where were the line numbers distributed last year?  I never made it all the way there because I was on crutches at the time.  I started crutching from North and I made it halfway across the bridge to Central when I got a call from a friend who said that he had gotten a line number for me.

Line numbers last year were given out in the parking lot behind lynah and bartels, right by Morisson*.
