SLU Tickets - Intrust Bank Arena

WSU basketball is the reason that I stay with Cox.

Thank you, and Cox thanks you too.

[SHOXAAC]

Exactly.

People who have Cox think everything is peaches and cream. I'd wonder how they'd feel if Uverse had exclusive rights to carry certain Shocker games. For some reason, I think these people who are so adamant about defending the Cox deal would finally see the light and change their tunes.

Peaches and cream are good by the way. If Uverse had exclusive rights I add to the coffers of the sports bars those games. I guess life isn't always fair... In fact some think of fair as judging pigs, butter sculptures and riding the boom-R-rang.

You have the option to purchase ESPN with any basic cable/satellite package. There is ZERO option for me to purchase Cox 22 games on Uverse. If there was an option, I would exercise that option, but there is not. I still would think the Cox-WSU sucks balls, but if I had an option to pay for it, I think a lot of non-Cox customers would probably pony up. But we don't because we can't. Again, ZERO option.

Your second question is even more ridiculous than the first. Season ticket holders are paying a PREMIUM price to watch the home games LIVE. If you didn't get a chance to snag them up back in the day, or if you live out of town, whose fault is that? The season ticket holders?

Nice try though.

How sad is that people in Louisiana have better WSU viewing options than some in WSU's own damn city?

And let me guess. We should just switch cable companies and succumb to a monopoly and be happy about it? LOL. No.

You can't purchase Cox where you currently live?

Do you really not understand the difference that Fever stated? Or is this just where you want the last word?

[BikeIdiot]

Agreed. The front row across from the home bench has 7 empty seats in a row during the game. I counted 24 empty seats in that section alone.

Honestly, I would seriously investigating whether Uverse would be the best option.

[BikeIdiot]

Oh, and I am tired of prescreening by security at these games. I don't feel the least bit at risk without everybody getting wanded and women's purses being checked. In fact, I prefer the perceived additional risk. This goes for at Koch too. Can we just go back to trusting our fellow Americans at low risk college basketball games now?

Edit: I am not against having security guards at the games ... I'm all for the presence. Just the pregame screening is unnecessary.

Can you image how pissed you would have been to stand in a rain with lines out to the street? What dumbshit designed an arena with only two main entrances? I got in an out of Yankee Stadium faster during a sell out for Jeter's 3000 hit game several years ago. Why can every building I go into move people in and out faster than Intrust (well, Hartman Arena sucks also at this)

[BikeIdiot]

Thank you, and Cox thanks you too.

My NFL team is not the Chiefs. I would have to carry Cox to watch the Shockers and DTV to watch my football team. On the flip side, I can watch every EPL soccer game from England live. Just not every American football game.

I don't know how Uverse works since it isn't available where I'm at. It was a serious question. I know in KC certain areas are/were Cox while others are/were Time Warner. I was curious if that's how It is in Wichita.

Ah ok, gotcha. My bad then

I don't purchase Cox because Cox is a more expensive option that produces an inferior product. You're telling me every WSU fan is required to switch cable providers simply for watching their team play? So you're saying I have to sacrifice my own personal choice to watch a WSU game on TV? I don't think so.

A game that is on KWCH can be viewed by EVERYONE. A game that is on ESPN can be viewed by EVERYONE. A game that is on Cox 22 by its very nature CANNOT BE VIEWED BY EVERYONE.

How hard is this to comprehend?

But go ahead and keep em rollin', Cox drone.

I don't have the option for Uverse. I guess you are pretty fortunate!

BTW, Cox is $20.00 per month to get channel 22.

[ShockerFever]

If it was a serious question, I apologize for the snazziness in my post. But I took it as a Cox jab FWIW.

That last line is irrelevant to the entire discussion. I'm not subscribing for Cox just to get Channel 22. If you compare both plans that I want, it's more expensive. But that isn't even as a big deal to me. I have experienced too many problems with Cox to list on this website. It sucks in general. I should not have to downplay the quality of internet and tv I receive to watch a WSU game. It's a monopoly that I will not participate in. It sucks that WSU has succumbed to this contract simply for the dollar signs. It sucks if this is the best possible option for the WSU basketball network. Over half of your fanbase is alienated with no options.

I get it
