I have done the Holiday Inn (but I'd guess it's booked) & have stayed a ways away - what is Close & Fun & not too pricey ? ........Right We've stayed at the Holiday Inn but that gets booked in October/really early November usually. We've stayed at the Radisson, others have stayed at the Kelly. I'm not sure where we're staying this year. Siouxmama is in charge of rooms, I'm in charge of tickets and the Domestic Diva is in charge of booze and snacks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: I vote to trade jobs with Domestic Diva. She is always the one that has to change the number of rooms they need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to wait until you get your tickets to know where your seats are. At least that's how it was when I bought tickets last time. I'm going this year as well. Paid for my tickets a month ago.

yzerman19 Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 I paid for and reserved my seats on September 17th. Is it first come first serve for location? When I've purchased tickets before, I bought game by game and was able to select my individual seat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diggler Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 When I ordered my tickets about a month and a half ago, I just got a reservation. How'd you manage to actually purchase seats? Did you go to XCel or through Ticket******? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I've purchased tickets before, I bought game by game and was able to select my individual seat. We've gotten the same seats for the past 5 years. There is an option to upgrade (better seats) but we're happy with ours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yzerman19 Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 I paid for the reservation, not the specific seats. I went through ticket@#$%! I was directly behind the net the Sioux shot at twice against Rascist State and stuck in the boonies for the Wheeler miracle goal game. I reserved early this year in anticipation of a rematch and not wanting the boonies again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you go to XCel or through Ticket******? If you order thru Ticketmaster, they are first come first serve. If you order through the Xcel Center, you have the option of getting the same seats every year, or try to upgrade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diggler Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Meh. I thought when I got my reservation this year it meant that I would be able to avoid stupid Ticketmaster next year. Crap on a cracker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diggler Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 I thought someone told me when I was looking into this that I couldn't order tickets directly from XCel at the time and had to go through Ticketmaster. By getting a reservation through Ticketmaster I thought I was then in the system and could just renew every year. Oh well, I'll just have to order tickets from XCel next year and finally get this stupid stuff straightened out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I figured Xcel would just go through ticket*!@#*& like the ralph does. Do the same *$&(% charges apply? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luapsided Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 So they must control this somehow right. Say someone pays the lower level price but the seats fill up? I suppsoe the lower level option must stop once it is full. Ill go through Xcel next year? or really is there much differnce than ticket*(&$%& ?
