Re: Iowa State

Not sure where else to ask this - Do I have to call in to get tickets to the ISU game?

I wasn't thinking that they can't release single game tickets until after ISU does but that would be the case wouldn't it. Thanks!

Re: Iowa State

I believe there were only 500 tickets given to SDSU and Season ticket holders had first shot. Haven't found out if we were succesful yet.

I'm assuming that there will be few if any left after that. Hopefully due to the Thursday night game, it will easy to find tickets. Last year's Thursday opener was Kent St. and they drew 10,000 less (47000) than the following week with UNI.

Re: Iowa State

I believe Nebraska plays at Iowa State this year. Iowa State changed their ticket policy this year to not sell single game tickets for NU...except for certain seats. I assume many Husker fans will purchase season tickets to ensure they get a good seat in the stadium. I doubt many will want their SDSU/Iowa St. ticket. Posting a need at bighuskerfan.com or some other Husker fan board may get you a good seat at a cheap price.

That's true. If you don't buy a ticket online, you can always find cheap tickets outside the stadium from the scalpers. For a non-conference game, I'm sure you could find a decent ticket for only about $10, but you would probably have to wait until kick-off for the cheapest ones, just because they want to get rid of them.

50 Days to Iowa State:

#50 Mao Lefiti , JR, 6-5, 220, P, Koneoham, Hawaii

Like his older brother, Soli, a two-year starter at Utah, Lefiti won all-conference honors at Palomar (Calif.) Community College after a standout prep career at Castle High in Hawaii.

Re: Iowa State

I went over to the CycloneFanatic site and started an SDSU vs. ISU thread just to see what I could learn about gameday in Ames. Looks like it should be a great time. Sounds like they have the tailgating thing down to a science.

Here's the link:

If you are planning on going, you may want to be working on rooms. There is some kind of convention in town that makes hotel availibility a problem.

Can't wait for the 28th of August, going to be an exciting day for SDSU!

Go Jacks!

When booking a room be prepared to pay for Thursday and Friday night. None of the places I looked into would allow a Thursday night stay only.

[SUPERBUNNY]

Re: Iowa State

I was able to book a couple of rooms without the extra night stay but it was within a day or two after the game was switched to Thursday night. May have gotten lucky and beat them to the punch.

Rooms are scarce, that much I know!

I assume you meant switched to Thursday night from Saturday day.

Correct! I edited the previous message.
