Let's get on it people! Buy some tickets! We are in first now for goodness sake! Whatever you have going on during March 2 - 4, CANCEL IT! You are going to St. Louis!

Surprised Bradley sold 200. Those even numbers must be school purchases to satisfy a minimum purchase commitment.

[ShockerPhi]

That would make sense.

Is that a league record as I thought we sold more than this in 06?

[ShockerPhi]

They said it was a league record. Maybe for the time so far since they aren't final? But it simply said league record...

MVC Basketball @ValleyHoops
Creighton’s 2,575 all-session tickets sold this year represents a league record. #ArchMadness

So, Evansville has sold more tickets to the Valley Tournament than they do for their average home game? Interesting.

At first glance the sales for MSU and DU seem really low, but those two, plus the Illinois schools will always look low since they have the luxury of a relatively short drive to STL.

[SubGod22]

I think we sold 2200 or 2300 a few years back. Not sure we hit 2500

[AndShock]

I hope Creighton doesn't double us up.

[boilershock]

I can't believe the low number for us but then again we're not selling out Koch.

The number of all session tickets sold early is not an indication of the number of fans we will have there. No need to worry, I'm positive we will be well represented.

I agree, I just found out today that I will be able to go. I think we will equal the number of Creighton fans.

We (group of 4-5) have not missed one since 2003 and we haven't purchased all session passes since 2005. We have found it easier, cheaper, and better seats by waiting until we get to STL, plus the negotiating with the local (ahem) vendors adds to the allure. I suspect that a lot of those 2,500 are Creighton co-eds that have never been and just used daddy's Amex to buy the tix.

We've always had a good time in St. Louis even when we weren't so good.

One cool thing. Creighton blue blends with Drake blue which blends with ISU blue. But, when the Black and Gold start marching to the arena, there is no doubt who's coming or where we are sitting.

I've been trying to talk my friend into going and I was wondering how much a ticket usually goes for from one of these "vendors"?
