2011 Frozen Four lottery results

Re: 2011 Frozen Four lottery results

Priority 4 and got 4 tickets. We haven't been to a Frozen Four since Denver in '08, so looking forward to going back. We wanted tickets to DC in '09, but didn't get picked in the lottery and we didn't bother applying for Detroit in '10. Good to be back on track, but hoping for non-nosebleed seats this time around.

Priority 2, got 2.

Surprised by the Priority 0 people getting them to be honest. Maybe the ridiculous price and the economy set people off.

There isn't a single bad seat in the XCel. I am thrilled to just get in the rink.
 
Re: 2011 Frozen Four lottery results

Hmm, I'm going to bet that of the 14 Frozen Fours you've been to, 2010 was your favorite? :)
 
Re: 2011 Frozen Four lottery results

Priority 5, got 3 tix.
RE 0 priority folks getting tix...hasn't it been policy to regularly set aside half (?) of the available seats for first time applicants to the lottery?
We've been to every FF since Buffalo but had several years of not being picked in lottery.

They set aside a certain percentage to sponsors, the hosting school, NC$$, and others.

From what is left, about half (someone can correct me on it) is reserved to those with current priority. They always start with the most and go down until those tickets are exhausted. The bubble was priority 4 for the 2009 DC Frozen Four. Unsure if all priority 4s got their tickets, but it should be assumed those with three or less did not get tickets in this group.

Then all that is left is thrown in with all those who are applying for the first time (priority 0) and will be drawn randomly out of the second leftover half.

If someone wants to explain better, please do. pgb-ohio is the master all things point-wise. All I know it took me four tries before I got my first point.
 
Re: 2011 Frozen Four lottery results

Letter arrived today, got 2 tickets.

FFs attended: Boston, Columbus, St. Louis, Denver, Washington, Detroit, St Paul.

I successfully got tickets through the lottery now a total of 4 times. I believe that makes me a priority 3?
 
Re: 2011 Frozen Four lottery results

Got the letter yesterday for 2 tickets. Have won every lottery since '06 (Milwaukee); attended every FF since '01 (Albany).

If one of your lottery "wins" was for Detroit, then you are correct. Your priority number is 3. If Detroit was not one of them (I'm not sure how that could be - no one was denied), then you would be a 4.
 
Re: 2011 Frozen Four lottery results

This is my 10th year and my son's 9th. Both of us "won" 2 tickets in the Lottery, again.
 
Re: 2011 Frozen Four lottery results

If you already had pts, you got one if you went through the lottery for FFFF. If that was your first year buying, you didn't get a point.
 
Re: 2011 Frozen Four lottery results

I didn't even apply for tickets this year and the NCAA sent me a letter awarding me 4 tickets!
 
Re: 2011 Frozen Four lottery results

We were picked for 4 tickets with a 5 priority. 2012 Tampa? Who are the geniuses who picked this site?
