NCAA Tourney Tickets

Glad people started this thread. Hope WSU snatch up the remaining St. Louis tickets so we can have a big presence there if that is where the team goes.

If we win Saturday, folks should start looking at the Memphis tickets for the S16-E8 games. They are already only a few hundred away from selling out.

Ever the optimist, I have tickets locked down for all rounds (STL-MEM-DFW).

Since the MVC is hosting, does their auto bid get locked to their site?

Nah. Tied to seeding and geography.

We are in great shape for STL at the moment though.

Just purchased (2) All-Session for STL, corner, 3 rows from the top. Those were 'best available'. Doesn't appear there are many face value tickets left.

My tickets came yesterday along with an enclosure on how to sell tickets on ncaaexchange.com. That struck me as odd, that they'd be supporting re-sale.

They have done that for the College World Series for several years and it pays off sometimes. I've gotten tickets for way less than face value.

We've booked at the Westin for Arch-Madness and also booked the first weekend of the NCAA's at the Westin. Would love to play in the same arena two weeks apart.

If people are going to sell, the NCAA might as well be the middle man.

Risk, at least financial, is not really a risk. Last year I sold four tickets on stubhub for $210 gain per seat, so I essentially paid for my trip to Kansas City. I could have sold the other four and paid for a trip to St. Lake.

This is a very smart idea
