trying to give away my Ill tix
I know this is extrememly late (since the game starts in less than 24 hours), but I have 2 tix to the game tomorow and now due to a death in the family will be unable to attend. I live in Arkansas so dropping them off or picking them up is not really an option. I would be willing to give them away if someone can tell me how to get the tix to you. any ideas I am all ears.

Sorry to hear about your loss. If it were a home game maybe you'd get a stroke of luck and find someone on the board who was driving up late Friday who you could give them away to. At this point hiring a courier would probably be very costly - most definitely passing the ticket value.

Condolences. If you find a taker, there is always Fedex
hold for pickup. You have a few hours before they close.
They can ship to any Fedex Depot and the taker can track
them online, and pick them up by 9:00AM

Sorry to hear about your family. I live in Arkansas too but I'm not sure I can even take you up on your offer. Just looked and its a nice 8 or 9 hour drive to Champaign and with such short notice I doubt I'd find anyone willing to drive up there with me.

Pontoon if I remember correctly you live in Little Rock. I am near Fort Smith. about a 2 hour drive and I would be willing to meet you somewhere if you want to go. I will check back here if you think you can go. Let me know and I will give you my email or phone #. If you do go by yourself maybe you could sell the other one when you get there and then use that money for your hotel.

I appreciate the offer but I'm going to have to pass this time around. If you're ever in the little rock area and looking for people to watch a game with feel free to drop me an email. [email protected]

I do not make it to Little Rock very often but I put ur email in my address book and will keep that in mind. would be kind of neat to meet a fellow mgoblogger.

Yeah just checked with a couple of my buddies and none of us can justify being in a car for over 16 hours just to see Illinois.

Sorry to hear about the death. Death is already tough and we'll keep you all in our prayers.
Me and my wife would love to go to the game. I wish it was a way to overnight it...I'm willing 2 pay
October 30th, 2009 at 6:06 PM ^
do greatly appreciate the prayers but no I live in Arkansas so getting them to you would not be eaasy. If you think of something let me know.

Fedex would be the only way...I live in Indianapolis. You would have to catch one before the last pickup
October 30th, 2009 at 7:21 PM ^
just checked fedex and their last drop off for express is 4:30.

I can't use the tickets but I just wanted to say sorry about your loss man. Hope things get better for ya.
