I've seen several pictures on my Facebook feed yesterday and today from people who have received theirs.


I would have expected some bragging here if anyone had received them. I live in Ames and am travelling again this year and think my wife would have texted me if they arrived. Now, I'm getting excited about being home tomorrow and actually being able to take them from the mail carrier. Woo hoo!

I do wonder if they send them out late to deter people from selling them on the secondary market.

The timeline has been 2-2.5 weeks before the first game for many years. It's just that game one this year isn't until Sept. 5. They're right on schedule.

Got mine. I switched sections last week because a friend of mine decided to get tix and we wanted to sit together. The office said they would mail my initial tix out, then I would have to go exchange in person. However, the new tix arrived saving me the trip. Plus, I didn't even have to use my AK. I must say it was a good day.

Regardless of what theyve done in the past, I would say that's still a poor schedule. Renewal deadline was months ago, no reason they shouldnt be able to get those out say.... august 1.

Not their fault you put a date on StubHub.

Has anyone ever received their season tickets in two separate mailings? I only received 4 of my 14 season tickets and am also missing my parking pass. The 4 I received in the mail are the ones I added after I did my renewal so maybe that had something to do with it.

I'm not the only one complaining about it.

They have 5 months between renewal deadline and the first game and they get thwm out at the very end. They could do better.

Just got my 3 in the mail on Thursday the 20th here in DSM.

It's never usually an issue for me, but it does seem weird they always wait until so close to the first game to send them out. (Season tix holder since 2006.)

The release of tickets so late in the year is to deter the secondary market sales. It is the same reason why we get the Big 12 Tournament tickets so late.

Damn still didn't receive them, yet. Really don't understand why they can't get them out a little sooner. Kind of disappointed they couldn't deliver until the week before the week of the first game.


MINE CAME TODAY ON SATURDAY CHECK YOUR MAIL TODAY

I just ordered some extra tickets on the hillside through the Jr. Cyclone Club deal last week. Does anyone know how long it will take to get these?

Don't know, but I'm planning to ask on Monday. I got my parking pass in the mail on Friday, but not the hillside tickets. Thought they would have come together...
