:hail2thechief: Does anyone have access to tickets for next weekends games? I'm looking for one ticket for all three sessions.
If I get up there may be looking for someplace to crash?
If sitting in the upper level what is the view like? Are you too far away from the court?
Thanks for any and all replies. :2thumbs: |

The Huntsman Center was purpose built for basketball and is one of the best arenas in the country to watch a game. There is not really a bad seat in the house.
I'm really picky about seating, I won't attend an event at the Delta Center if my seat is upper bowl. But I'll sit anywhere in the Huntsmen Center.
YMMV |

Thanks Shane,
I've got a couple of bids in on ebay for upper level seats at $240 ($40 a game). I think that is a good price.
I'm looking to get a seat in the row 32-38. |

Hey Bruce -
FWIW - I've gone almost every year they have had the first and second round games games at the Huntsman or in Ogden or Boise since the early 90s and have always been able to walk up and get tickets from other fans for face value or less than face. I guess it depends on who ends up playing there (watching selection show right now) as to how easy it is in the end.
Good Luck!

Tickets could be at a premium with the following:
Gonzaga vs Xavier (east)
Indiana vs San Diego St.
Nevada vs Montana
Boston Col vs Pacific
Gonzaga, Nevada, & Montana are just down the road. Xavier and BC will bring maybe 200 each. San Diego State should have many.
The question is where do I go to get one of the Xavier or BC tickets that are allocated to the school. Those would be the easiest to get. |

Easy..... Call the schools (BC or Xavier) ticket office. When Utah went to the Fiesta Bowl some of my friends picked up tickets through the Pitt ticket office. |

Well it looks like I'll be heading to beautiful San Diego for the Thursday and Saturday games to see my alma mater kick some butt! I love March Madness. It doesn't get any better than this.

Actually my guys are one of the big boys! Already getting ready to move out of the state if we lose to USU in the second round. It just wouldn't be worth the years of abuse I would have to take.
What are the chances though?
