Appears that there were very few tickets available through sprint center. I tried to find 4, 2, and even 1 ticket and it told me there were no tickets available.

Congrats to those who got some!

Got 2 - Sec 111, Row 5.

Sucks they don't mail. Not expecting to play on Wednesday - be nice to try and sell those off if possible. Anyone have ideas on that? Obviously can't have someone pick them up....

I'll be right behind you Ruby! I had the same thoughts about Wednesday night's game as soon as I bought the tix. I don't really want to make the trip down a day early just to try to sell them. Especially since our hotel reservations aren't until Thursday. It'd be nice to be able to sell these prior.

Well then... I'll let you buy me a beer! :wink:

Doesn't make much sense to me - not to mail those tix, or allow earlier pickup. Perhaps they figure it cuts back on fraud or something. But empty seats don't eat....

Got rooms out that the Embassy Suites in the Plaza. Stayed there for the Arrowhead games a few years back. Nice enough, not much left closer to Sprint. About 250/night all told and cancelable.

I know most of the nightlife has moved to the Power and Light area, but I found the Plaza entertaining, and close enough. Anyone else have recommendations?

Give me your credit card and ID and I'll pick them up for you on Wednesday.

Wednesday tickets have little to no monetary value. The supply is far, far greater than demand. Last year I could barely give away the non-ISU tickets because ISU, KState, and Kansas were always together. If you want value on non-cyclone sessions then cheer for KSU to play Wednesday and win and ISU/Kansas to be different of the 1/4 and 2/3 sessions Thursday.
