Ice Arena Man Posted August 11, 2010 Posted August 11, 2010 Got my notification today from NCAA. Got tickets to 2011 Finals in St Paul. Can't wait for the season to begin. Looking forward to going to games at Bemidji, St Cloud, and Mankato and Final 5 at thge X. I should have labeled it 2011 Finals at Xcel. OOPS Quote
Boomer 40AAA Posted August 11, 2010 Posted August 11, 2010 Did they notify you by e-mail,I also put in but have not heard anything yet. Quote
sioux7>5 Posted August 11, 2010 Posted August 11, 2010 Got my tickets for the Frozen Four. Taking the whole family for the first time. Should be fun. I think Sioux fans will really enjoy this season. Go Sioux! Quote
siouxforeverbaby Posted August 12, 2010 Posted August 12, 2010 Got my notification today from NCAA. Got tickets to 2011 Finals in St Paul. Can't wait for the season to begin. Looking forward to going to games at Bemidji, St Cloud, and Mankato and Final 6 at thge X. I should have labeled it 2011 Finals at Xcel. OOPS I get what you are saying but just to point out..it is still the Final Five in St. Paul. The name of it did not change, the name now refers to the number of games being played and not the amount of teams at the tournament. Quote
Ice Arena Man Posted August 12, 2010 Author Posted August 12, 2010 Did they notify you by e-mail,I also put in but have not heard anything yet. I got a letter today in the mail from the NCAA. Got two tickets. This will be my second final 4. Went to DC two years ago. Had tickets last year in Detroit but did not go. Should be fun this year. Looking forward to going again. Quote

The name of it did not change, the name now refers to the number of games being played and not the amount of teams at the tournament. Both the Final 5 and the Frozen 4 are at the X this year so I'm confused which tickets they got...I think they mean NCAA Frozen Four 1 1 Quote
Lobo Posted August 12, 2010 Posted August 12, 2010 Got my letter in the mail today as well for 4 tickets to the Frozen Four! Can't wait! GO SIOUX!! Quote
Sioux-cia Posted August 12, 2010 Posted August 12, 2010 My sons and I each applied for four tickets. We got four for sure! My mail is forwarded so I don't know if I got four or not. My other son hasn't heard yet either. Wooohoooo, glad I got my rooms for both the Final 5 and Frozrn 4!! I can't wait!!! Quote
Sioux-cia Posted August 12, 2010 Posted August 12, 2010 FYI http://www.ticketnews.com/news/NCAA-and-Ticketmaster-dealt-potential-blow-over-Final-Four-ticket-lotteries081004832 Because thousands of people enter the NCAA lottery for tournament tickets each year, the NCAA could potentially lose tens of thousands of dollars in revenue. The lotteries are not only held for men's basketball tournament, but also the women's basketball tournament and the men's hockey Frozen Four, among other NCAA championships. Quote
Shawn-O Posted August 12, 2010 Posted August 12, 2010 Let's hope the proceedings are much less annoying than the last time. 2002 set the bar pretty high, so I think we'll be in good shape. Quote
Sioux-cia Posted August 12, 2010 Posted August 12, 2010 WoooHoooo!!! Got my letter today, four more tickets for the 'Sioux-cia' family. As far as I know the third member, Phats, who applied for four hasn't heard. If he got four, we'll be selling the extra to Sioux fans for cost. We all applied so we would have a greater chance of getting enough tickets for the entire family. Given my 'zero' wins in the past, I'm more than pleasantly surprised that two of us won! Quote
VMeister Posted August 12, 2010 Posted August 12, 2010 Can anyone tell me what kind of prices the tickets usually go for on the secondary market? Frozen 4 is on my bucket list. Quote
Shawn-O Posted August 12, 2010 Posted August 12, 2010 Can anyone tell me what kind of prices the tickets usually go for on the secondary market? Frozen 4 is on my bucket list. It depends on where it is and who's in it. If UND gets to the Frozen Four it will be a very hot ticket going well over face. In the case of St. Louis, they were giving them away. Denver...tough ticket. Quote
siouxforeverbaby Posted August 13, 2010 Posted August 13, 2010 Both the Final 5 and the Frozen 4 are at the X this year so I'm confused which tickets they got...I think they mean NCAA Frozen Four Ice Arena Man was talking about tickets for the Frozen for which is the NCAA tourney. The Final Five is the WCHA tourney, which the post also mentioned. Quote

I completely missed the cutoff and was planning on putting in for the lottery this year. Sioux-cia, if you end up with extra tickets you're looking to get rid of, I'd be more than happy to take them off your hands! Either way, kudos on the integrity to not jack up the price. Otherwise, looks like it might be a long couple months of trying to find some scalper selling them - ugh, I hate people intentionally buying tickets to scalp them! But at least I lucked out and got an additional seat for my season tickets, now just can't wait for the season to start! Quote
Sioux-cia Posted August 13, 2010 Posted August 13, 2010 Well, it looks like it's two outta three for the Sioux-cia family. Phats hasn't heard anything about his application for tickets (I'm not complaining). Does anyone know if the 'winners' are all notified on the same day or are the letters mailed out for several days?

Sioux-cia Posted August 13, 2010 Posted August 13, 2010 CIA,I just got my notification today.I think it just took a few days depending on location. CONGRATULATIONS!! Quote
Sioux-cia Posted August 13, 2010 Posted August 13, 2010 CIA,I just got my notification today.I think it just took a few days depending on location. CONGRATULATIONS!!! I'll have to check with Phats later tonight. Maybe he did get tickets. Quote
Lobo Posted August 14, 2010 Posted August 14, 2010 CONGRATULATIONS!!! I'll have to check with Phats later tonight. Maybe he did get tickets. Should also check your credit card. If you have a large credit back on there, good chance it was because you didn't get tickets. Quote

Sioux-cia Posted August 15, 2010 Posted August 15, 2010 Whoopie!! We got the letter. 4 tickets! Oh,oh!!! Four tickets, five in the Siouxman family! Let the sucking up to Daddy begin!!! LOL Quote
Siouxman Posted August 15, 2010 Posted August 15, 2010 Oh,oh!!! Four tickets, five in the Siouxman family! Let the sucking up to Daddy begin!!! LOL I thought Keikla was already booked through you! Quote
Sioux-cia Posted August 16, 2010 Posted August 16, 2010 I thought Keikla was already booked through you! Uh, no. She booked sleeping-floor space but not a ticket. I thought we would use her as our between games room caterer. Quote
