I don't know much about message boards (other than UND has a great one - thank you @jimdahl), but I believe part of the problem with ASU hockey interest is that it has not yet developed a very large fan base. I think the estimate of 15% ASU fans at the game in an earlier post is too high. ASU has done some great things with their program in their short existence, but because of their prior lack of a viable arena, location, competing sports and other factors, the fan base is not there. Hopefully, that changes with their new rink and eventual hockey conference affiliation.

I live in LV and use the AXS app frequently. When you select transfer, the app allows you to select the tickets you want to transfer, allowing you to transfer individual tickets or more to separate people.

Any word as to when tickets will go on sale?

Yes, the area is called The Park. It is a dining and entertainment district on the Las Vegas Strip that lines the walkway to the TMobile Arena. It is very festive and is a good place to go before the Golden Knights game. https://www.mgmresorts.com/en/things-to-do/the-park-las-vegas.html

For those from the 70-80s era or those that appreciate vintage video games, try the pinball hall of fame. You can play all games for a quarter or fifty cents. Its actually pretty cool and not far from the strip on Tropicana: http://www.pinballmuseum.org/

Don't feel bad SiouxVolley, I live in Las Vegas, play at that rink and was ready to give an answer to MafiaMan. Double Dense.

UND and Goofer Fans: There will be a viewing party of for the UND vs UofM game in LV. See below. Also announced on facebook. Might be worth the trip to LV even without ticket in hand? Here is info on tailgate party: https://undalumni.org/HOFPregame Hi Robert, Yes, the game will be broadcast out in the tailgate area of the arena on large screens for those without tickets. (From Brooke Conlin UND Alumni Assoc) ______________ To: webmaster <webmaster@undalumni.net> Subject: Hall of Fame Hockey Game in Las Vegas Tailgate Party Do you know if the UND vs MN hockey game will be broadcast on the televisions at the tailgate party? Thank you, Robert

Ha! Good idea. I bet they could fill it for just a broadcast party.

Anyone know if MIDCO or UND will do any viewing parties in Las Vegas for those that travel or live in LV but are unable to secure tickets?

Looks like someone besides UND is bringing destination college hockey games to the TMobile Arena in Las Vegas: https://www.reviewjournal.com/sports/golden-knights-nhl/t-mobile-arena-to-host-college-hockey-tournament-in-january/

Couple of good articles on North Dakota and Arizona basketball connections: From the Tucson newspaper, Arizona Daily Star: http://tucson.com/sports/greghansen/greg-hansen-ncaa-tourney-memories-lead-me-back-to-lute/article_bebdf059-1224-5c7b-8d47-0fc8bb7dfece.html From the Grand Forks Herald: http://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/4234517-legendary-coach-lute-olson-und-arizona-thats-going-back-time-me

Well said . . .

No kidding. I live in LV. I called the box office in the morning and was told there were no ticks for sale at the arena, only online. Bad info. Good for you guys that you got some.

Granted hindsight is 20/20, but we midwesterners love Vegas. (See Cratters post above.)

Las Vegas is much more accessible for UND (and Gopher) fans that primarily live in the midwest and west than is NYC, especially with airlines like Allegiant, Frontier and Southwest. Add in the hotel deals that many of these airlines have and, Yes, I think it was forseeable that this game would have a much higher demand than MSG. The TMobile Arena would have sold out.

Maybe for you guys that post 5,000+ to this message board . . .

I looked into joining recently just for the purpose of buying the Las Vegas game tickets, but you had to have joined by a date that had already passed. Didn't seem to make much sense to limit it like that.

Well said . . .

Me too. All ready to go and nothing. Just horrible.

I give it a "C". When it came out, I gave it an "F". So, it is getting a little better. I think the best version of it that I have seen is with the black "U" in front of it.

Of course we don't know what he had to choose from. But we do know that it was important to him to have a logo picked out before his interim pres was up. Also, we know that UND graphic design student and others publicly released ideas equal to or better to this logo. Regardless, Ed picked this.

According to the information released by UND, Schafer picked this logo. Not great.

I suspect the hockey team jerseys will not display the fighting hawks new logo or name for some time or that any inclusion will be de-emphasized.

I tried that and still does not display. Thanks for the suggestion. I enjoy the website and will have to get it figured out.
