Sorry, I just don't care anymore. I think a lot of people on here feel the same way.

So, it’s “fightingsioux4life, or until they don’t make the tourney?”

AF got the seeding they deserved but if I were St. Cloud, I think I’d rather play Princeton. Serratore seems to bring out the best in his guys in the national tournament. 

[UND1981]

Thank you NCAA for placing all three teams from the Rodent state to SF.  Maybe I'll recoup my ticket investment after all!!

Not me. SCSU tied Princeton twice this year and did not look good doing so.

Good point. I had forgotten about those two ties. Man, St. Cloud is a great team but boy, did DU ever make them look average last night. The Huskies had no answer.

I bet SCSU’s Olympic rink vs non-Olympic rink splits might be interesting. A good team in space.

I just tried to sell my Regional ticket package to a  long time SCSU season ticket holder for $70 for 2 lower bowl. Their response was, " We'll go Saturday if we win. Friday."  Other season ticket holders I asked are waiting to go if they end up in the Frozen Four.

Their fans aren't winning to shell out much cash for tickets even during the regular season. They had an offer for 4 tickets, 4 hot dogs, 4 sodas for $70 this year against DENVER and the place was empty. Remember when they played in Fargo two years ago at the Regional and they didn't even use up their allotment .

$70 total both days/2 seats?

[UND85]

Yes and they didn't take them.

Just checked Craigslist....a TON of Tix for next weekend listed in Sioux falls.  Don't think people are gonna recoup any money

[sioux24/7]

Man am I going to get !@#$ from people in the office tomorrow for UND not making it to Sioux Falls. I’m going to go though because heck I’ve got nothing better to do in Sioux Falls on the weekend. 

 

Edit: I didn’t realize it actually replaces swearing.

My ROI for my SF tickets might be just giving them away so I don't waste anymore time on this season.

Gave mine to a college friend who lives in SF. Told her to find someone who'll use them. I have washed my hands and mind of this season.

Very funny (not).

I don't care about a tournament that my team is not a part of. I didn't say I didn't care about the program anymore. That is a douche post and uncalled for. #dontgothere

I listed mine as well but don't expect a hit. My buddy in Becker said I should be able to recoup a lot of the cost from a huskies fan. I laughed and told him I expect exactly what you said

[UNDLeafsGuy]

Any idea how I can transfer my Regional tickets to a friend who wants to go?

Are they only available at Will Call on game day?   Any help would be appreciated.   Thanks!

I’ll go wherever I please. I find it amusing that the posters complaining most about missing the tourney are the same ones who 3-4 years ago would post in the “Fire Hak” threads that they’d gladly suffer missing the tourney if it only meant that we’d win a title. Seems to me you got your wish.

Does anyone have any restaurant and or bar/nightlife suggestions in SF?

MacKenzie River, 236 S Main Ave, Sioux Falls, SD 57104

It's a chain, but I was there about a year ago and it was decent.

We have some great restaurants & bars downtown: MacKenzie River Pizz, Grill & Pub, Phillips Avenue Diner, Minervas, JL Beers, Crave, WoodGrain Brewing Co., The Blarney Stone Pub, Fernson’s on 8th, Monk’s House of Ale Repute, Prarie Berry East Bank, PAve, Swamp Daddy’s Cajun Kitchen to name a few. If you want delicious diner type foods but nothing fancy, I recommend The Crack’d Pot just off of Russell St. on Minnesota Ave...close to The Denny (arena).   Btw, if you or your friends need more tickets, I have 2 lower bowl tickets remaining. PM me if interested.

Agree with all of this, the downtown area is pretty solid with plenty of options, but it's not the most conveniently located in relation to pre and post game activities. I live 5 minutes from the Denny and there isn't the greatest selection in that area of town yet, but there's a Buffalo Wild Wings basically in the parking lot of the arena, if that's your type of fine dining. Across Russell Street attached to the new Holiday Inn there is the Crooked Pint Ale House. There is also a Mexican restaurant, Casa Del Rey across West Street on the east side of the arena which is a great place.

As a lifelong North Dakotan, and UND grad, currently living in Sioux Falls I was pretty disappointed we couldn't make the regional, but I still look forward to watching some good hockey this weekend. Hoping some UND fans still plan on making the trip and providing a good atmosphere.

[UND1981]

I gave my 6 tickets away to my Minto, ND connection.  Too many tickets available for minimal demand.  Too bad that St. Cloud, Duluth and Purple cow fan bases don't travel well.

Not only that, but Princeton has only lost 2 of their last 16 games.

I knew they were hot, but I didn't know they were that hot.  Our record down the stretch sure wouldn't have struck fear into our opponents.

With today's college hockey parity, you may not see a team get to the Frozen Four as many times as Hakstol did in such a short time span.
