Well you still have $25 to account for somewhere. It will probably end up being a little less than a season ticket but not by much. If isu is playing well, it could end up going for a lot more if they can be sold as singles later.

I have tried picking up tickets for almost nothing outside but no one usually wants to give those to me for that hardly any thing amount. My experience is people want too much for them so I have just bought from the ticket office.

I see a lot of people keeping tickets rather than giving them for $15 a piece.


Of course this assumes the value of every game is equal.

In the average season ticket, UNI, Iowa, and Texas are the vast majority of the value. So buy the minipack and pick up a nearly free ticket from someone outside the stadium for the KU\TCU\OSU games and youre well ahead of someone who bought full seasons in that section.

I don't. A 20$ bill will easily get you a ticket to any game outside of Iowa, usually with change.

Well I said $15. So you just verified that it would take $20. I don't consider that nothing the last few minutes before a game. I know I have asked many times and always get the immediate "no" on anything 15 or less.

To me $15 would be the high end of very little. $20 is only $9 less than the season ticket price for these seats. ($29)

Again, the mini packs arent losing money or very little if they are.

175÷6=29 and change

But the minipack is a package of your 3 most popular games, so you don't have to pay for games that aren't as popular. You should be charging a premium for these tickts, not "losing very little money if they are"

They aren't my three most popular games. The uni game falls to about last for me. I guess you can sell them to instate people but that doesn't make them the most popular for isu fans.

And for the 8th time they are getting more for those three games.

The rest of the games are the only question. I just threw in the might make less than they would as season tickets to appease everyone. I don't think they wil as they are already ahead of that pace with the three tickets sold for more.

Lol there is still donor tickets where donors will have first choice. Who cares about corner tickets? I don't unerstand why people are crying about this.

Does anybody know when single tickets will go on sale to the donors?

Well I jumped on the 99 mini pack for my wife and I. Pretty excited about it although we can't make the UNI game so likely selling those tickets.

Is it bad I can't tell which group is supposed to be the Premium games? No wonder why they are having trouble selling those $50+ tickets.

Think I'm going to just go ahead and trust JP and Co. on this one. Fact is ISU is coming off of two absolutely garbage seasons with 5 wins total (one of which was at Kinnick, LOL!). The fact that ISU is able to sell tickets in the number they are going to is a miracle. Im willing to bet that ISU percentage drop off in attendance this season is much less then Iowa's...

When you can't answer a question, just defer to Iowa. Same old strategy :spinny:

But many on here try and try again to refer to Iowa as "little brother", no matter how obsessed they may be with trying to one-up "little brother" in any manner possible just as you are.

I love it!

Said the hawk fan on the isu board. The irony is something to witness.

It's even more comical that you don't get it.

ISU will beat iowa again and it will be expected. Just like every other year.

I'll walk you through the math, since you went to Iowa, maybe.

They are selling the upper deck three-packs for a premium. As several already noted.
Season Ticket = $175 / 6 = $29.17
Three Pack = $99 / 3 =$33
Premium = $3.83 ......... Boom Math...

I guess thats if you believe UNI and Iowa have the same ticket value as Kansas or Oklahoma State.

Boom Logic.

I still don't get the love for watching uni. It's by far the worst game on the schedule even if uni has a good team.

I realize you may get some uni fans to ames. It's not my top 5 game. I would switch that for osu in a heartbeat

You're the Iowa fan on a Cyclone message board questioning moves of your rival school. Your question has been answered multiple times, you just don't like the answer because it goes against your original point.
