Do I go watch the game today or hold off for the finals?

Submitted by myislanduniverse on
Ticket prices for the B1G tourney today and tomorrow dropped a bunch with Maryland getting eliminated by Northwestern last night, so I figured I'd go cheer on the team. Should I go watch today, or hold off for tomorrow on the hope they get it done today and avenge the earlier loss?

Sunday tickets to the BTT are always cheaper than Saturday tickets. They will drop tonight/this evening again (maybe just marginally if it's UM vs. UW).  

 

That year that we beat OSU in the semis but lost to MSU in the finals, the Sunday tickets were literally only half the cost of the Saturday tickets. And that was UM vs. MSU in Indy...Imagine UM vs. Northwestern in DC? 

 

Root for Wisconsin to lose to NW. 

 

To be frank, if you go today, you could try to get a ticket basically for free from fans leaving whose team lost. If Wisconsin loses, for example, there will be some of their fans who are literally trying to give tickets away when leaving the stadium.

Go today.  If you don't I'm sure we will lose.  Karma works that way.  

Then once we win go again tomorrow.  Because why the hell wouldn't you want to watch us in the finals???

Never put off until tomorrow what you can do today.  (i.e. attending in person a Michigan tournament victory.)

And if it works for you today, get up and do the same thing tomorrow.

Look for the guy at the bar wearing a blue sweater. He's giving away an extra ticket. Get there before Raul does, then tell the guy at the bar wearing the blue sweater that your name is "Raul". Profit.

March Madness the money sucking mother of all goldmines for the NCAA.

That this is the BTT and not the NCAA might tip the scales for me...but...who am I kidding...I watch because M is my tribe.

Beat the Gopher.

Both.

But I'm like you - one or the other. I'm wating for Sunday. If we lose today, then I won't regret not going too muh. And the chance to see a Championship doesn't come often.

(looking to buy 2 Sunday tix, ya'll) - anyone buy at Verizon? What are the prices?

how in the world can "both" not be one of your options? How many times will you get a chance to see us play in the semis and finals in your area? carpe diem brother, go to both.
