Re: NCAA West Regional: St. Cloud State/Ferris State, Boston U/Denver
Don't know what they were smoking this year at the tourneys, thinking they could get full price.
Scalpers always pull that "sold out" BS. I laugh when they tell me that the Gophers game is sold out. I simply reply that EVERY Gophers game is a sell out, I'll just get SRO tickets. In the past, they usually change their minds about pricing.When I was looking for a ticket before yesterday's game, one scalper tried to get $75/seat. My automatic response was, "Oh, hell no," and walked on to the next. The next guy was down to $65/seat, and I told him I'd rather just got to the box office and get seats $12.50 cheaper per seat. While walking away, he yells out that the place was sold out and that I better get excited to watch the game from a bar. Yeah!I ended up getting in the door for $40/ticket.
It was remarkable how empty the arena became for the DU/BU game after the seats being pretty densely filled from corner to corner for the SCSU game.
