Taking my son for his first ISU road game. Going with some other family/friends. Should be a blast.
KU Game Roll Call - 11/3/2018
- Thread starter cyfan92
- Start date
Looking for reccomendations for two things:
1. Any luck scalping tickets down there, or should I just buy online (Stubhub, etc.)
2. I have yet to look, but if I were to come down are there a lot of hotels in the area or will I have to stay in KC Friday night?
Thanks in advance

Should have a decent group coming over from Kansas City. Most likely tailgating at allen fieldhouse, unless there is going to be a more designated ISU spot. Until then, I plan on filling that parking lot up with cardinal and gold.
We will have a busload coming down Friday night and staying in the armpit of Kansas (Lawrence.) Any good bars that we should know about for Friday night? We will likely be tailgating at AFH. What is the earliest they let people in?
The gamewatch in KC is at Kelly's.
You probably don't even need a ticket I have seen multiple people just walk in. The people at the gates do not care.
Like its been said on here, scalping is weirdly pretty hard for the game, not because you can't do it, but there just isn't anybody out there selling tickets. Apparently, KU just doesn't sell that many tickets in general to their fanbase and those few that do either go to the game or don't even bother trying to scalp their tickets. Therefore, we will likely do Stubhub this year. Last time, we got lucky last minute with a guy who gave us some tickets for free, but we had been failing miserably on the scalping prior to.
Oh yeah, we've got a group of around 9 coming in an RV this year again.

I was limited in practice today and am questionable for this Saturday.
Oh, worth mentioning too for those who haven't been there, just get the cheapest tickets you can find. The game is literally like a high school game where you get through the gates and sit wherever. Don't expect much either from their stadium as it is a complete dump. I still have a debate for all the stadiums I've been to (quite a few) through the years on which one is the worst, and it always is a heated battle between Northwestern's and Kansas'. It is always neck and neck.
Agree that it's a dump and there's a good chance that there will be more ISU fans than Beakers.
Agree with posters above. Just buy the cheapest ticket possible. An you can really sit wherever there is an open seat.
Here is what the crowd pictures look like from their upset win over TCU. Maybe 1/4 full

My reaction when you said maybe 1/4 full:
We must be nearing Christmas because oh my, you be generous

It's actually way more. I bought 4 tickets at ticketsforless.com for $120. Section 22 row 5. Going through ku the same seats would have been $300
Right... but face value should be less than secondary market.
Wouldn't make sense for people to buy at face value, then sell for less on StubHub or one of the other sites, correct?
