MVC Tournament Tickets

[SubGod22]

My seats last year were about as far from the court in the corner as possible without being in the upper bowl. At least I had a few friends to talk to. Those were by far the worst seats I've had in my seven years of going to STL. Sadly, I won't be going back for a few years.

That's mostly because more and more of the high donors have been going pushing back us common folk. I know quite a few people who donate more than a little to WSU and have had tickets for 20+ years and don't have great seats in St. Louis. Lucky for me I'm good friends with a top 10 donor who doesn't travel to games, that's always good for the best seats in the house. When there are 10 schools to give tickets to, there are only so many "good" seats....especially when the center court sections are reserved for corporate sponsors of the arena.

If WSU and Creighton both make to the Championship game I could see a lot of Shocker fans deciding to drive over and back on Sunday just for the Championship game. Of course, the same may be true for Creighton fans.

Makes me wonder how many tickets would have been already sold by WSU and Creighton had the tourney been alternated to KC.

[SubGod22]

I don't think I could to the STL drive and back in the same day. If it were in KC, I wouldn't even think about not doing it.

If the game were played in Kansas City, you would see a lot of that. I am sure there will be a few that do it for St. Lou but I am sure there would be a lot more in KC.

If there was a CU vs WSU mvc championship game, they might set a attendance record, there wouldnt be a seat available. Would make for a hell of a atmosphere
