southpaw Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 I'll be there and have heard from a lot of Colorado friends who are also going. Both games sold out fast but I was able to pick up face value tickets in the third row last weekend on stubhub. Who else plans to be there? Quote
NOCO SIOUX Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 I will be there. I stood in line at Magness arena way back in September to buy 8 tickets for both nights. Pretty stoked that I am getting to see the Sioux play in person on back to back series. Let's roll up George and the Gwozettes both nights boys. See ya'll Friday night. Sioux Ya Ya Quote

SiouxTupa Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 I'll be there in Southpaw's group. Also very excited to see them in person, on the road, in back-to-back series. This might be the first year ever I've seen them more times in person on the road than at the Ralph. Quote

A shuttle from there..its only 7 minutes away...if there isn't a train. Quote

siouxforeverbaby Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 The train goes right by the DU campus and you can walk from the station to the arena. Yeah, I was talking about in Minot. Quote
johnsowe Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 I am going and yes there is a winter storm. Quote
gsiouxo Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 Airport in Minot is a mess right now.......we live in Minot so will have someone give us a ride over and pick us up......the tram is why we chose to stay at the Magnolia......they told us it stops right outside their front door and goes to campus.....

NOCO SIOUX Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 Just a quick note on the bars around the arena if anyone needs advice. There are a few but they are on the smaller side and parking is limited. I usually party in downtown Denver and take the light rail to the arena if I don't have a ride so I can partake in an adult beverage or two. There is also a Dave and Busters one exit to the east on Colorado Blvd. It is a bar with a restaurant and a bunch of video games. There is always a few Sioux fans there and it is about 3 minutes from the arena. There is also the Alumni gathering if that is more your speed. Quote
SiouxFan in DU Country Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 We have always had a good times at: 1. Spanky's ( 1800 East Evans - about 5 blocks from the rink and a bit small) 2. Stadium In - http://stadiuminnden...enver.com/ ( a few blocks from Spanky's ) 3. Illegal Petes ( illegalpetes.com ) - down the street from Spankys and across the street from Stadium - and super good post game burriotos 4. After game beer absoption food - http://www.jerusalem...staurant.com/ My .02 Quote
southpaw Posted February 19, 2013 Author Posted February 19, 2013 Four of us are going to Dave & Busters Saturday afternoon. It's a fun time. Illegal Pete's is also great food. It's like Qdoba or Chiptole but with more options and a local flavor. Quote
AZSIOUX Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 Illegal Pete's is my favorite when on Denver road trips! Quote
yababy8 Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 I eat at Spanky's or Jerusalem but its a quick bite and spend the rest of before and after game at the Stadium Inn Bar. It's the place to be. Tons of Sioux fans every year. ... I hope this year we have 50% SIOUX FANS in Magness, It's always a ton and epic for sure but with all the press the UNO series had I would love to top it in Denver. ..any chance Brad shows up at the Stadium Inn and regails us with duck racing stories? Quote
AZSIOUX Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 Won't come close to Omaha as that is a novelty outdoor trip for many that was planned in advance....but sioux fans always show up big time in Denver regardless. I have been to magness 3/4 times for regular reason games and its always all green!! Go sioux!! Quote
richthorpe Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 Flying out from Boston first thing Wed AM!!! Pepsi Ctr tomorrow to Watch Osh and the Blues play the Aves, then Sioux v Denver Fri-Sat... Might have to sneak a phesant hunt in Thrs AM!!! Lets Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! I think we are staying at LaQuinta both nights... Quote
siouxfaninseattle Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 Campus Inn is a great hockey bar. Its about 1 1/2 miles north of the arena. Place is a dive but real good food. Owner played hockey for DU back in the 60s. Quote
southpaw Posted February 19, 2013 Author Posted February 19, 2013 If anyone is still looking for tickets for Friday, 2 sets of 2 opened up on Stubhub for $30 each. They are upper deck but it's cheaper than I've seen in a while. Quote

They are upper deck but it's cheaper than I've seen in a while. Don't recall there being an upper deck at Magnus. Lower deck must be the 6 or 8 rows below concourse level. And the rest upper level?? For the record, I don't think there's a bad seat in there. Especially for North Dakota fans. Quote

There is a upper level technically but it's not as noticeable as a Ralph ect... Quote
SiouxperSiouxFan Posted February 20, 2013 Posted February 20, 2013 We will be there. In Vegas now but leave on Friday AM, staying at the LaQuinta Inn. Quote
SiouxperSiouxFan Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 Does anybody know if there is parking at Magness Arena? Quote
keikla Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 Does anybody know if there is parking at Magness Arena? There's a small parking garage right near it on campus. Otherwise, it's easy to park at the light rail station and just walk a couple blocks over. Quote
