fiesta bowl ticket question

hooked on texas — Tue, 09 Dec 2008 00:49:27 -0000

well i searched the site to check if this has already been asked but new posts are popping up faster than i can keep track of, so i apologize in advance if this is a repeat post....

but i was wondering if anyone who has experience attending a bowl game could tell me the best way to go about getting tickets. I'm a UT student season ticket holder and I know that you can get on a list or something to reserve/request a ticket at $135. does anyone know the chance of actually getting a ticket this way? i don't want to request a ticket and then wait around and end up not getting one.

also, are these seats generally pretty decent or the worst nosebleed spots? i've been checking stubhub and the tickets at around this price are the worst seats; so just wondering if I got it through UT if it would be better or not.

and lastly, if I did get it through this UT student season ticket request thing, how do i make sure that I get a ticket next to my friends? or is it just tough luck and you sit by yourself? lol

any advice is appreciated. i know i could just call the box office and ask them (and i'll probably end up doing that too) but when i've had questions in the past they haven't been really helpful. seems like people on this site would be more knowledgeable than them.

thanks! HOOK 'EM

ok...i'm officially excited!!

i would rather win the fiesta bowl (something ou hasn't been able to do recently) than lose in the NC game (something ou is probably gonna do very soon).

so no more dwelling on the past!

the system screwed other teams too (see everyone who deserved to go over cinci and vtech)

we get to play OSU. we get a shot to avenge our last loss to them and take the lead in the series.

a win would be a great end to this season and a great springboard for our 2009 season. more likely than not, ou is gonna lose and look really stupid again. everyone will realize that we deserved to go.

the chances are pretty good that we will get the last laugh here...

hook 'em!

IT'S GAMEWEEK!

can we start talking more about the a&m game this thursday? i know it's kinda hard; not much to say given poor aggies' terrible season and everyone's expectations that we're gonna win. but still, i feel...weird not reading some type of commentary/numbers/stats/story...anything on the team we're about the play!

thoughts? comments? aggie insults? anyone worried about another upset?

there will be plenty of time to talk BCS and voters and 45-35 after the game.

damn i wish it was thursday already. the last game i was able to go to was OSU. major home gameday withdrawals :(

I'm so proud of this team

i know it's been said but what the hell, it needs to be said again.

let's show some damn support for our team right now. it's easy to be a fan when your team is winning, it's a little harder when they lose.

yes, blake should have ended the game with that interception, yes, we should have stopped that last touchdown, yes, we should have controlled the clock better on our last possession...there's a million more things that would have allowed us to win this game, but they didn't happen so let's just let it go. this one hurts, badly, i know. but the season ain't over yet.

this team has earned our support, but i dont think we are really showing as much as they deserve. and this is when they're gonna need it the most. the way they came back makes me so damn proud...man i freaking love this team.

congrats tech...HOOK 'EM ya'll!!
