        This is surprising to me and I’m happy about it...

          For real? Didn't think that was allowed.

          Apologize in advance for the hockey east refs.

                Look at all those empty seats.... maybe you shouldn't have tried to charge us $300 for a ticket when we may have only gone to one game (we HAD to buy all session passes)... I know a TON of people that were scared off by the price and would have gladly dropped $50-$70 to go to this game (Though hindsight... I'm glad I'm not in that arena)

                    Agree that they should offer single-session tickets, but $50-70 for a Frozen Four ticket is far below what they can charge and reasonably expect to sell out the arena.

                      Erm... are you seeing what I am seeing in terms of empty seats? This place should be packed with three giant alumni bases and essentially a hometown team. It's not... only explanation is that all those empty seats are all Domers and Wolverine fans getting a good pre-game in... but that would be a different issue then.

                        Seat geek had 80 for today when I checked during breakfast. Scalpers were at 65 when I walked into the arena. I pay for this trip on a grad student salary and my team isn't even in it. I'm having trouble feeling sympathy

                          I'm in the arena. The OSU section (unsurprisingly based on your recent posting) is 40% full at the lower section and empty above. Michigan and Notre dame fans are still drinking. Rest of the arena is 90% full.

                            Considering OSU is almost never in the FF you'd think you would pony up the dough. Now, if it were an OSU football game...

                              Many folks re-up to keep their priority, so tickets sold is different than tickets used. MOST of the time, you can get tix on the cheap, as the host city (or one really close by, looking at eastern folks) rarely makes the F4. If MN made it? Crowds would be vastly different. In 2011, if it were UND-MN in a game? Those tix would be twice the price, minimum. Title game? I bet you could have gotten a grand for a pair, easily.
                              Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

                                First time I applied was in 2004 and i got tix. Didn't apply again till next time it was in Boston a few years ago. Got em then too. My priority wasn't very high obviously but unless you actually go every year why would you buy tix every year and then scramble to sell them?
