NCAA tickets for Des Moines

[El Simbolo]

anyone know how much tickets cost? I figured you'd be able to look up pricing before they go on sale, but it doesn't appear so. thanks

I believe I paid around 500 for two 300 level seats to all three sessions.

What would suck is not only Iowa not making it to DM, but playing at the same time somewhere else.

Yeah, we've been talking about that within our group. Iowa or UNI are long shots to get a protected seed. tickets are easy to sell, but you need to hope for a well-traveling fanbase to play in Des Moines.

FYI the cheapest tickets are $380 on stubhub right now. I don't know if that means anything.

The people coming to DSM from around the country are going to be surprised at how nice is DSM. Our downtown has grown, we've got about 15 new hotels and a fantastic restaurant selection for a metro of only half mil. Coming off all the publicity we've had with the Presidential campaign and then going quickly into the NCAA tournament gives us a chance to show the world Iowa is not all hay bales and cloven hooved beasts.

No need to bring ISU co-eds into the conversation

Agree 100%. Lived in Des Moines for the past 20 years and have worked downtown for 10 years. Amazing to see all of the transformation taking place downtown and around the metro. Downtown is as lively as it's ever been. I wish we could have gotten the new convention hotel in place before the tourney ... But it will be a great addition to the Iowa Events Center upon completion.

I'm jacked. My Dad got all-session passes to spread through the family, so I'll be at at least one session. +1 on people being impressed with DSM. The city will most likely pull out all the stops and treat it like it's hosting the Olympics, as they should.
