Gonna start a thread for any ticket info separate of all the game talk threads to help keep people updated.
BTCG Ticket Info

Patience…tickets are stupid right now. OSU has a lot to unload this week.
I don’t know. The market never really went down in 2015. There were a ton of Iowa fans looking then and not many sellers. This year, the other team’s fanbase will also have huge demand as they’ve never been there. Michigan also has a lot of wealthy alumni.
Just in case anyone wondering, it looks like the Hawks will be designated home team per BTN website.
I bought tickets after PSU and just today realized they are in section 318, which is on the “east division” sideline. Going to be surrounded by Wolverines lol
I've never been to Indy. Any thoughts on parking and/or tailgating possibilities would be appreciated. Or where a good area to park near a decent amount of bars/restaurants would be.
As long as you don’t wear OSU or MSU gear, you’ll be fine. I’ve never had a problem with their fans in the dozen or so games I’ve been to in AA. They’re good people.
I would be very nervous heading to Indy without tickets thinking you are just going to scalp. Its illegal to scalp within 1 mile of Lucas Oil and the police were really monitoring potential scalpers.
I would venture to estimate that for every ticket available their was 250 fans looking for that ticket. A lot of people ended up getting left out due to not finding available tickets or not being able to afford the asking prices. Tickets just werent available and the demand was ridiculous.

I scalped three tickets in 2015 about an hour before kickoff with no issues.
That being said, like the poster mentioned above I wouldn't advise this being anyone's Plan A.

We bought ours right when Minnesota won today for $300 per ticket. Same section a few rows further back are now $425 per ticket.
I don't see them coming down much in price. Lots of demand from Michigan fans will drive them high.

Looks like my basement and Casey’s for me.
Why would OSU fans have tickets? They aren't any different than us - waiting for the school allotment which they won't get. The only tickets available now are 3rd-party tickets - like corporate tickets, etc.
At least this is how I understand it. But I've been wrong before...
Lots of Ohio State fans bought tickets earlier in the year expecting to make it and are now selling.
If I could get Friday off I'd go, but just way too much of a hassle to try and make the trek Friday evening. Oh well, maybe next time.

Bball opens night before at Purdue
No clue how close or far from indy
Pretty sure many get sold before year starts
If you can park around LOS then you should be able to tailgate. Otherwise, park near the convention center and head down to the Illinois street to the bars and restaurants to have a good time. FOX will be broadcasting the pregame so you can check that out in the square near Hyatt.

Thought about the BBall game, but it's a 9:00 pm EST start and West Lafayette is ~1 hour from Indy. Would have made for just too late of a night. Also Purdue is really good and has a track record of wrecking us, so decided to head straight for Indy and find somewhere to watch the game.
You could reserve with a small “down payment”. There’s a lot out there that will be coming down in price.
I agree - they release some through ticketmaster. https://bigten.org/sports/2021/8/12/21_FCG_TICKET_GUIDE.aspx
I just assumed it wasn't that many as the two schools get a majority of the tickets I thought. And then of course they have to give many tickets to corporate sponsors and other relationships they have. But maybe the general public allocation is more tickets than I realize.
This is Michigans first trip ever. This ticket will go up up up.
As others have said, don’t expect them to get cheaper. OSU fans are dumping them right now and eager Michigan fans will pay through the nose.
In 2015, we bought ours off the Columbus Craigslist. I would make sure you tell them you’re not a Michigan fan, they might give you a reasonable price.

As far as parking/tailgating, you’ll need to use the ParkWhiz app. Just snagged a spot in a law firm parking lot which allows use of their indoor bathrooms so pretty happy about that. Highly recommend you buy your parking in advance.
The fan stuff is north/northeast of the stadium a block or two. That’s mostly garages up that way. Most of tailgating areas will be to the southeast of LOS.
Are we gonna drink all the beer in Indianapolis again?
Yes. We will leave an abundance of White Claw for those in our wake.
We've been to every B1G championship game and always park here:
Virginia Avenue Garage - 155 Delaware St, Indianapolis, IN 46204
It's right by Gainbridge Fieldhouse where the Pacers play and is only 5 minutes to the bars and 10 minutes to the convention center where fanfest is.
Extra info: There's also a great place for gathering that most people don't know about - Circle Centre Mall.
Downtown Indy is great. You will love it!
Total tix for sale went down almost 20% overnight and prices not going down. Mich has alot of alumni
Buy now.
They have but there’s a ton left on both sides right now. Anyone know when the university lets those know that put in requests a few weeks ago?
Probably Tomorrow.
A lot of the tickets from the UI are pretty crappy. Players families and big donors get good seats but a large bunch are upstairs.
They’re not bad. You can see thru StubHub and vivid seats where those are. We sat in the end zone nose bleeds last time and those are still $+225 a ticket. Going to hold out a bit longer today…have until 3pm to cancel Airbnb without penalty. Love being stressed out about this shit on a Sunday lol.
For anyone staying in the north suburbs, the Carmel Christkindlmarkt is going on right now and is pretty cool if you’re looking for something to do Friday night. As for Saturday there will be a “designated” bar for Iowa fans, although we will be everywhere downtown. Last time it was the Colts Grille but I don’t think that’s open anymore. I know the owner of the Tin Roof is an Iowa guy so that place will be full of Hawks.
University notified me an hour ago that I got tickets. They are preassigned, with the seats based on priority points. Went in 2015--it's an outstanding stadium, not a bad seat in the house, really.
