Indiana Fever exhibition game tickets purchase experience
- Thread starter redbirdhawk
- Start date
Not sure people should be surprised. This is an exhibition game that doesn't involve a Iowa team, so outside parties had influence on how this was going to go. This was bound to go this way. I used to go up to the Big 4 classic in Des Moines every year to get my fix for Iowa basketball. Des Moines is an easy trip that I could still make after work on Saturday and just stayed downtown overnight. Really enjoyed those weekends until they pulled the plug on "the classic". So when ladies played in Clarks "home town game" her senior year I got online right when they opened the window for tickets, and had the same experience. Sat waiting, then got in and kept picking seats only to find out they were already gone when I went to purchase them. Just how this stuff works when the demand is so high. And yes I hope the Aholes trying to sell their tickets on the secondary market get stuck with them, until they have to give them away on May 3rd or something...
Would it not be extremely simple to determine who is selling their tickets? Don't the resellers have to specify the row/seat of the tickey they are selling? Could that info not be quickly paired with who bought said ticket today?"Orders determined to be made for the purpose of resale will be cancelled."
No that's not what I meant. Chill out. Also, A days worth of driving and $50 tickets and y'all could watch a fever game in Indy.
Buy 4, sell 2, pay for your trip. I'm sure anyone that could get their hands on 4 did so even if they didn't need 4.
If you're saying Fran destroyed all of the mens bball program's goodwill, I agree.
Jesus man, chill...holy hell
Just one year ago, many people on this board were loudly declaring they'd never watch a WNBA game.
Now people are talking about quitting on the program over not getting the opportunity to overpay for tickets to an exhibition game.
What a world.

68 degrees is the average high temp for May 4th in Iowa City.
Outside basketball at Kinnick with 55,000 plus is a lot of fun; just ask CC.

Maybe I'm stupid, but I'm completely relaxed. I still wonder why they scheduled an event where they had to know 95% of Iowans can't afford to pay what it will take to get in the door. IF they can limit resale to face value I'm 100% okay with it. I've already seen dozens of posts complaining about this.
Background: We started going to WBB the first year when Lark Birdsong was coach and games were free. On the Manage My Account page, it sez my rank is 931 out of 4009 and my Women’s Basketball Season ticket points are 63. No idea what that means. We’ve been season ticket holder for several years, row 15 behind the players’ families.
My Experience: I clicked onto the site on my 7 year old iPad about five minutes early and watched the count down clock. At 9:00 it put me in the cue for a couple minutes. Our four $66 tix in row 31 in a corner were confirmed at 9:03. Some of our children and grandchildren will be disappointed because there’s not enough to take all of them.

Well if this accurate information….
The CC effect…

I guess I don’t get this….ALL exposure for women’s basketball, Iowa women’s basketball, that CC is/was Iowa women’s basketball, Carver Hawkeye Arena, the home of Caitlin Clark, and Iowa women’s basketball is the hottest ticket in the country, people talking about it this far away from the exhibition even being played, Indiana fever and Caitlin Clark selling out an arena in Iowa and demanding premium ticket prices versus any other team in the WNBA say one in Chicago. Also playing an expedition at LSU with plenty of tickets available.🙄
I mean to me it seems like a no-brainer
Didn't get our season ticket seats in section B row 24 but lucked out and got tickets in section N row 12. A little closer to the floor but across the arena.
Iowa didn't really have anything to do with it other than providing a list of season ticket holders. The season ticket holders had preference, but that preference was low on the totem pole as I understood the rules.
