I was on the website the second tickets went on sale, but it was already sold out.  Makes me wonder if there were actually any tickets available.

I was on right at 10 and two tickets in section 310A, Row K were available Friday night.

See my comment above yours, I got 2. Kept clicking 'search again' since some people probably had the clock run out on their ticket order and they were released back to the public.

I will watch at my favorite pub here in Jimtown.

I’ll watch from home on my 70 inch screen. Stub hub is 181 is the cheapest for 1 ticket per night right now.

That is a good question not only for this game, but for many.  What is the breaking point?   It is a fine line that UND has to walk with this going forward, not only with single game tickets, but with season tickets.  We have already seen apathy in other fan bases across the country, and even in the student fan base here for many games.  You definitely want to keep the arena full to continue to perpetuate the success that UND has had.   Without that success you will see the demand go down dramatically.  We see how fast apathy can creep into a fan base, as witnessed by Wisconsin which had such a passionate fan base.  Hope UND can walk that fine line and keep the success going and keep that apathy out of our fan base. 

I said this earlier and I'll say it again, the market will correct itself, it always does. As long as UND keeps bringing in TOP talent and has winning seasons year in and year our, prices will be high (as they should be). Once the talent dries up and they start popping off losing seasons, the tickets will drop in price.

They have released SRO/Restricted view tickets in the Club Lounge. Same price as the regular tickets. Gets you in the door I guess.

There are season ticket holders that can't make every game. If they can't make a game or weekends games, they usually give them away or try and sell them. Sometimes some leave the seats vacant, which I think is a very poor option. I don't think 200 is such a high number of seats being sold, there probably will be more than that. But, in this case if they sell for $200 or more some may try and sell theirs where they might of normally gone to the game.

That is about 1.5% (that's a high estimate too) of all the tickets/seats in the arena. This is the game most fans have been waiting for (although I think the luster of the sioux/gophers is not as high as it used to be) and most of them will be going.

I see from the ticket exchange that tickets are disappearing. One set of two for Saturday's game recently sold for $278 each - - - let the games begin! 

[UND1983]

Where is the ticket exchange?

[siouxhockey5]

It is through Ticketmaster.  You just have to make sure the resale option is checked.  I just logged on for Friday nights game and it showed me all the tickets that are for sale.

Wow, seats right next to mine are listed for $200 each!

[mikejm]

There will be many tickets sold for $500 per seat, per night.

I know folks in my section - 112 - who've already topped that.

[ksl_sioux4ever]

Maybe I should just sell mine for 250 a piece and sit at home......I couldn't do that

Instead of lining the pockets of a greedy scalper--err, season ticket holder, why not just take the old lady out to a nice dinner, watch the game on TV, and donate half the difference to charity?  You'd still be ahead.

I can't stand greed either but this post is a bit corny...

Looks like quite a few $15/$25 tickets left this weekend for those families who couldn't afford tickets (or thought the price was too high) for the Gopher series. Could get the whole family in for less than the price of a Minnesota ticket.
