  1. I posted a hotel message to the Fan Bus to Denver thread but I really meant to post it here.

    I just got the Grand Hyatt Denver through Priceline for $120/night. It's a 4-star hotel and I was only requesting 3-star. It's right off of the 16th street mall and the bus that takes you within 3 blocks or so of the Pepsi Center.

    See the Fan Bus thread, post #47 for the long-winded version.

  2. If anyone is still looking for rooms downtown, I just got a room at the Grand Hyatt for $120 through Priceline.

    I had looked for a 3-star hotel last night and went as high as $110 but then was locked out for 24 hours. I tried again tonight, selecting 3-star and bid at $120 and the offer went through. This is a very nice 4-star hotel, 1 block off of the 16th street mall and just a short and free bus ride to the end of the mall where you can walk to the Pepsi Center. Last spring I was at the regional and stayed at the Holiday Inn, which is now a Crowne Plaza, that's about 3 blocks further away from the Pepsi Center and using the bus down 16th worked extremely well. Didn't need a rental car.

    Thanks to Bob in Wisconsin for clueing us in on the Priceline trick. I had never used it until last weekend to get a room for Madison. That worked extremely well as we got the Madison Concourse for $58 and walked to the arena. Turns out the team was there too. It worked so well I was anxious to try it again.

  3. I have two standing room tickets for Saturday night vs. Minnesota, Feb. 2 that I cannot use.

    Don't let the standing room part bother you. I've always preferred to pick a spot on the Sioux's offensive zone for periods 1 and 3 and lean on the rail. It's a great view and less cramped than the seats, and it's really not hard at all to stand for the duration. Just get there a little earlier than normal to pick a good spot.

    Face value is approximately $65 for the pair.

    Send offers or inquires to tboney@comcast.net or contact via PM.

  4. What's playing right now? I can't seem to find it. I have comast too, but in Maple Grove so I'm not sure which channel it is?

    Thanks for the help!

    Try Channel 13. It's there in the Northern suburbs (Blaine, White Bear, etc.)
