bertibm Posted February 27, 2003 Posted February 27, 2003 Next year some of us Gopher Fans would like to Visit the Ralph. How Tough is it to get Group Tickets? Also are there any hotel close by? And any local bars to hang out at before and after the Game. Quote
hrkac Posted February 27, 2003 Posted February 27, 2003 i just heard the other day that all the tickets have been sold and the hotels are booked-up. Quote
Bleed Green Posted February 27, 2003 Posted February 27, 2003 Are you just pulling his leg or is that true? Not that I care because I have season tix . . . but bertibm I believe single game tix go on sale sometime in Sept./Oct. before the start of next season . . . that would probably be your best bet. Or you can just call the Ralph's ticket office and ask them . . . check out their web page www.theralph.com for more info. Oh . . . and if hrkac is telling the truth . . . SIOUX-PER Dude:) Quote
jimdahl Posted February 27, 2003 Posted February 27, 2003 I think he was joking. The thread just down the screen has some local bar tips. A little further away (but nothing is far in G.F.), I'm also personally a fan of the new BW3 on Columbia (though I've always been a BW3 fan so like to see one in G.F.) If Gopher fans feel more comfortable hanging out in Minnesota, there are some good bars just across the river in EGF, Whitey's and Blue Moose, in particular. Some of us have had luck getting tickets from UND/Fighting Sioux Club for UND road games in the past, not sure if there are any similar opportunities from U of M. There's a Hilton Garden Inn right by campus. It's pretty new so I've never stayed there, but I've never seen a bad Hilton (I use them all the time for work). No hotels in G.F. are particularly expensive. Others who visit G.F. more probably have better hotel advice than I. Quote
forecheck Posted February 27, 2003 Posted February 27, 2003 There is also the Holiday Inn (bar included), EconoLodge, Super 8, and Roadking Inn close by. They're all clustered on the street where I live, on N. 43rd St. right off Highway 2. Quote
dagies Posted February 27, 2003 Posted February 27, 2003 My suggestion is to find a place down on Columbia. Short drive from the arena and close to a lot of the BW3/Applebee's type bars for after-game action. Otherwise all the other mentioned locations are good for the traveler. Quote
Fighting Sioux Fan Posted February 27, 2003 Posted February 27, 2003 Next year some of us Gopher Fans would like to Visit the Ralph. How Tough is it to get Group Tickets? Also are there any hotel close by? And any local bars to hang out at before and after the Game. As much as I'd like to not help you for being a gopher fan, I'll still offer some advice- go to USCHO.com message board, in the Tickets and Events forum there should be some UND threads started by RachelB. She works for the REA ticket office and should be able to answer all your ticket questions. As for hotels, there aren't any that are within walking distance but I think one in town has shuttle service to and from the games, I can't remember which one. Bars - Whitey's/Blue Moose and the El Roco also have shuttle service for games. Since I was nice to a gopher fan, you are buy the first round of drinks before and after the game Quote
Goon Posted February 27, 2003 Posted February 27, 2003 BW3 Hey Dagies, Explain that one, I assume your talking aboutun Buffalo Wild Wings (BW3) what does the three stand for? Quote
PCM Posted February 27, 2003 Posted February 27, 2003 Explain that one, I assume your talking aboutun Buffalo Wild Wings (BW3) what does the three stand for? Buffalo Weally Wild Wings? Quote
jimdahl Posted February 27, 2003 Posted February 27, 2003 Actually, it's weck. Buffalo Wild Wings and Weck. However, a couple years ago they changed their name to just "Buffalo Wild Wings", but people still call them BW3 out of habit. Quote
