    A couple miles from arena but they have a complimentary shuttle service that runs every half hour to all the Nashville hot spots.

    Al Pearson's daughter has arranged 1 charter plane (and maybe a 2nd) leaving GF Wed @ 11 returning Sun @ 4. $1400 for hotel & flight, $500 down payment to reserve a spot due ASAP. Remainder due in Aug.

    Know of some staying at Treasure Island because of the best value. The daily resort fees are a killer anywhere you stay, including the Orleans.

    The Orleans has a complimentary shuttle that runs every 1/2 hr back and forth from the strip. I believe pick up/drop off is at the High Roller/Harrah's which is near the Linq. Orleans' guests have priority to board but it is for anyone should you wish to attend the sponsored tailgate parties on Fri and Sat.

    Our tickets say $79. Any suggestions where we should go watch the Vikes vs Saints game Sunday night while in Vegas?

    McAlpine apparently is the 2nd to be offered MN asst coach and declined even though Hammy of GPL fame said it was a done deal. Fake news.

    Pearson bus still has availability to Madtown. Ride/tix/refreshments $190pp. Fun times! Staying at LaQuinta $96/night.

    Exactly, plus UND and Denver were already in the NCAA. Their compete level at the Frozen Faceoff was no where near their compete level in the Frozen Four.

    The push is definitely on with the NCHC fan bases and college hockey junkie attendees in general. Apparently sales are down and game tix and hotel rooms in MSP will be plentiful come March. The League is going to be so screwed if (perish the thought) the good guys in green stay away.

    You assume alum and fans are only 4 hours away who follow the team. Alternative facts.

    Have stayed at The Loews, Radisson Blu and Marriot City Center. It is not likely we will return unless the FF moves back to St Paul, but if we were, we probably would choose the Marriot to get the best deal within walking distance. They each have their perks and/or negatives.

    After 10 years, we too did not renew our 6 seats. Went to the WCHA FF's and then the Frozen Faceoffs to watch quality college hockey. The Target Center is not 'quality hockey friendly.' Teams likely already in the NCAA Tourney according to pairwise also do not appear to put forth their best effort. Due to parity, seeding is not that big of deal in a one and done and they want to go in healthy. Last year the highlights of our trip were Hell's Kitchen, FireLake Grill and The Shouthouse, not watching hockey. Make reservations ahead of time! The Pourhouse is fun but packed pre-games so arrive early.

    Got the wrong tix sale start time from a Gopher website. Figures. At vegas18.com click the FAQ tab for all the info you need on tix, hotel discounts, pre-party and so on. See you there!
  15. thUNDer
    vegas18.com is Ticketmaster's site to buy tix and choose your seats for the event. Sales start 1PM CST 2/10.
  16. thUNDer
    Correction, you need to buy tix and Ticketmaster will give you an upsell package deal to stay at The Orleans as you finish your order on the 10th. My apologies.
  17. thUNDer
    The Hotel is selling tickets in package deal with their rooms.

    'said' ?????
  19. thUNDer
    BINGO

    Ditto! Plus enough gear with North Dakota and the interlocking ND on it. Absolutely........ so that is why it gets a 'D' in our book. Because of it looking like a knock off of the USPS logo, we think a new cheer with 'Going Postal' in it would be hilarious. Kind of like what this thread has turned into.

    Stayed at the Talbot in Chi Town recently. Nice location, good value (internet deal), great boutique hotel and staff. Close walk to Ditka's, Water Tower Place and Hancock. Cabbed to other sites we wanted to see. Love Chicago, can't wait to go back next year. Overall FF experience and would we go again..... St Louis- no, Philly- no, Denver- maybe, Milwaukee- maybe, St Paul- yes, Tampa- YES!

    Me and the Mr. went to UND on and off from '73-'82. Rivalries with both MN in hockey and cow college in football & M/W bouncy ball were very intense. Remember when Mad Dog Eddie Schultz went nuts while calling a FB game for the Bison at GF because he got hit with a beer bottle? We were at that game. Have lived in MN since graduation and still hate both. Always will.

    Felt gr8ness was about to happen after Schmaltz's goal in the DU game. The excruciating feelings of doom turning into joyful pandemonium was truly an awesome thrill ride.

    Almost did not go after so many past FF disappointments even though we had always enjoyed ourselves despite the losses. But this year was special on so many levels and we are very glad we went to FL because it was the best ever. The 'SHIP' is still sinking in for us and we enjoy watching the games replays. Thank you UND, team, coaches, fans, Tampa, Amalie, and Ferg's!

    Staying at The Barrymore a mile away from the arena. They have free shuttle service within a 2 mile radius of the hotel. They indicate pick up from arena again up to an hour after the game. Hotel parking is $8/night or free depending on your booking arrangements.
