Vegas Trip

[Cytown12]

Marriott Grand Chateau appears to not have a resort fee and they list "complimentary valet parking" as an amenity. Brings the price down significantly.

And they give quite the military discount so the price goes really down using that.

Booked last night! Keeping an eye open for single tickets through UNLV. Hope they go on sale soon!

There should be plenty of tickets and they should be super cheap! You have the hard part done! Nice work.

HOLY F.... SW website said the flights were releasing on 4/22 for sept. dang...

Glad I saw this! Grabbed tix but like 650-700 a person on SW is robbery... UGH. the things I do to see ISU in vegas.

Same here. $650 yesterday. We won't be thinking about that in September though

They won't block it if there continue to be sales.

Don't see them opening it up. It's not insignificant cost wise to open up the upper deck for a few thousand fans. UNLV averaged 17k fans before the move to the new stadium. I'm guessing they maybe bump it to 20k on their own because of the anticipation of their new coach and stadium and then we bring 10-15k to fit nicely into the rest of the lower bowl.

If anyone is nervous about tickets... I’d just buy season tickets and call it a day. If my quick look into it is correct... you can buy season tickets for around $125.

Game tickets are the last thing I'll be worried about. That's a pretty big stadium and there's no way it will be full, no matter how many fans ISU brings. We have our flights and hotel booked. Game tickets will just be how much you want to spend for good seats. If the demand is there, they'll open the upper levels.

I think ISU's low end will be 15k.

Only 4,000 tickets through the Iowa State ticket allotment....

We have received numerous inquiries on how Cyclone Club members and/or football season ticketholders can secure tickets to the Iowa State football game at UNLV on September 18, 2021. The Iowa State Athletics Department will receive a visiting team ticket allotment of 4,000 tickets for the game in Las Vegas. Cyclone Club members and season ticketholders will have the first opportunity to purchase these tickets, based on availability. All ticket requests will be prioritized by Cyclone Club giving level, priority points within that level, and ticket availability. Please know requesting tickets through Iowa State Athletics does not guarantee fulfillment.

Wouldn't even bother going through ISU unless you're a large donor. The seats will suck and be higher priced.

I can't believe people are paying 500-650/pp for flights. Sprint has direct flights out of KC for ~ 300/pp and one stop for ~250

You have to factor in the extra time/risk to travel to KC. Everyone values their time differently.

And fuel, luggage, and parking fees.
Personally, I can get a ride to the dsm airport.

I'm guessing 30K if not more. I haven't talked to many Cyclone fans who are not going.

I'll guess 62,500.

Not nervous. Have my name in for group tickets already along with a downpayment. Been in for a couple months now.

We are flying out of KC on Southwest, for us in Southern Iowa, the trip to KC adds about another hour each way, but well worth it when you consider we got direct flights out and back and it was cheaper than leaving from Des Moines. We were going to end up parking a car at the airport either way. So KC just made more sense to us.

I posted earlier both flights from KC to Vegas all told was $967.00. We could not find anything approaching that number out of Des Moines, leaving Friday and coming back Monday.

So where would you look for tickets? Through UNLV? When would you think they'd start selling them?
