Any ticket deals for Minnesota announced yet?
Has anyone heard of any ticket deals for this weekends game against Minnesota? I would imagine that given the direction of things at the moment, there should be plenty of tickets available on the secondary market, but thought I'd see if anyone had heard of anything else.
I've made the decision to lean into it this year. I guess my love of Michigan Football withstands numerous punches to the "Soul Dong"
Go Blue!

much goodwill by instituting a buy back program.
September 22nd, 2014 at 10:43 AM ^
Why in the world would the AD do that?
September 22nd, 2014 at 11:03 AM ^
Any goodwill he gained would immediately be lost the following Saturday when the buy buck program is so successful that attendance is undeniably below 100k for the first time in ages, and he was the man in charge when it happened.

$28.00 is the cheapest at the moment. $35.00 will get you a pretty decent seat.
September 22nd, 2014 at 10:44 AM ^
Saw that.. so at least there's that. The trick will be convincing someone else to go to the game. It's supposed to be gorgeous on Saturday so who knows what people will want to do.

RIght now, the cheapest seats are $70 or so in the north end zone if you went through MGoBlue, or at least that's where it was when I last checked early this morning. Similar seats are now going for less than half of that on Stubhub in the same sections. It's not even really an argument pricewise.
September 22nd, 2014 at 12:07 PM ^
that tickets aren't going for a higher price. I always assumed most people would pay top dollar to watch a train wreck.

a post about a deal for that game on the board last week, if memory serves...
September 22nd, 2014 at 10:45 AM ^
If there was, that's my bad. Don't want to double up content on my first post.
September 22nd, 2014 at 10:46 AM ^
I found the post, but it seems it is intended for faculty and staff, but maybe its worth checking out regardless: http://mgoblog.com/mgoboard/good-minnesota-ticket-deal-worth-checking-out

Good looking out, expired on Friday though.

I got a deal so good it was impossible to say no too.
Four tickets to every remaining home game. Including the UTL III.
I was originally only going to get to homecoming and senior day. My excuse was my 12 year old car having over 115K miles mixed with the fact that I'd have to spend money on the tickets being why I didn't have season tickets.
Getting the whole reamaining set for one incredible price, awesome. Not bad seats. The same section I always sit in.
September 22nd, 2014 at 11:49 AM ^
You said a week ago that your car was over 200k miles...
September 22nd, 2014 at 11:55 AM ^
You're right, I said two times the amount of the largest crowd when it's really just 116-117K. My bad.
September 22nd, 2014 at 12:26 PM ^
September 22nd, 2014 at 10:50 AM ^
but DB will announce another crowd of over 100,000, making YOU a part of the largest crowd watching college football that day!
September 22nd, 2014 at 11:07 AM ^
I am pretty sure that Carl didn't say 'part of the largest crowd watching a football game enywhere in America today' on Saturday.
September 22nd, 2014 at 11:27 AM ^
Nope. Still largest crowd in America this past weekend but Alabama and LSU were within 1500.
Sept 13th OSU had 104K, TAMU had 103K and we only had 102K so we were not the largest crowd anywhere in America. I will have watch this more closely from now on.
Does anyone know if Grapentine said largest crowd anywhere in america today against Miami?
September 22nd, 2014 at 11:53 AM ^
He hasn't said it at any game this season.
September 22nd, 2014 at 11:33 AM ^
September 22nd, 2014 at 10:53 AM ^
Thanks DB. I heard there will be a half time circus act this week.

I've never heard of that before. Is that just bs?
September 22nd, 2014 at 11:13 AM ^
For Utah I saw sideline seats going for $50 on Stubhub.
September 22nd, 2014 at 11:14 AM ^
Whatever the deal, it's not worth it. I paid $10 for my ticket on Saturday and it was the worst $10 I ever spent. And I once bought an Alanis Morisette CD!
September 22nd, 2014 at 11:24 AM ^
Lots of other college football teams are looking for new fans. Just a random thought, it has nothing to do with your post.
September 22nd, 2014 at 11:30 AM ^
That's ironic!

You oughta KNOW!!!

Got some nosebleeds a few weeks back for myself and the father-in-law. I expect to be able to move up significantly. Just to see the carnage better.

If you have a smartphone, check out GameTime. It looks like a front-end to stubhub, but (a) filters out the best 20 or so seats based on some combination of price/locaiotn and (b) focuses only on tickets that can be delivered instantaneously/electronically.
I have a pair of season tickets that I'm often giving away to grad students in my department---too many conflicts with kid stuff this year---but if I were in the market for more, this is how I'd get them.
September 22nd, 2014 at 12:00 PM ^
39 or two for 50.
September 22nd, 2014 at 12:31 PM ^
Let us know if you ever get the Internet and I can direct to some pretty good sites for tickets.

If Brandon wants more than 50,000 there Sat he better throw open the gates and let everyone in.
