Anybody heading up to the game tonight? Pretty cool that the Twin Cities alumni association set up some cheap ticket deals and a quick meet up with Georges after the game. Also a chance to shoot free throws on the court after the game I believe
T-Wolves vs. Pacers tonight
- Thread starter Cloner007
- Start date
I could have read the email wrong, but I thought the shooting free throws on the court was just after the Bulls game. I could be wrong tho! I was really considering going to this or the Bulls game, thought it would have been fun. But I am very superstitious and the T-Wolves have last all 4 times I have gone this year, and I don't want to mess with their semi-run, right now.
I am not an NBA fan, so no. Our alumni club here did set this up. Laura (a most awesome young alumni and mom) set this up. We did this for Hoiberg when he played here and one for Allison Lacey when she was in the WNBA too.
After game instructions if you missed your email from ISUAA:

I assume this went out to folks who bought their tickets through the ISUAA deal, I copied it off the Twin Cities club Facebook page. If you are looking for getting regular ISUAA or local club emails you need to make sure your information with ISUAA is up to date with a current email and that your own software settings for emails from bulk mailing don't end up in your spam or trash folder.
Local club mailings are sent for us by the team in Ames where they query for Twin Cities metro zipcode and email. We set up the events, draft the message and they edit and send (terrific support from them BTW). We have like 10,000 alumni here but only 4000-5000 emails and no real way to add to that without people updating their info.
To update your info:
http://cyspace.isualum.org/s/565/index.aspx?sid=565&gid=1&pgid=1481&cid=2123&post_id=0
You have to update your information with the email address you want to use, and the location in which you live so they can cater to that ISUAA area.

Thanks! As an alumni up in the cities I had been wondering how to get connected with other Cyclones
Same! I was getting Chicago emails because that is where I moved directly after graduation and couldn't for the life of me figure out how to change it. Luckily I had a buddy on the ISUAA committee that helped walk me through what i had to do, or else I probably just would have given up.
If you are on Facebook you should join the group. All the formal events plus some popup events not in our emails are posted here. Up to approximately 600 in the group now.
