    But not living in Madison means if it's not a same day post game visit I am out of luck if it's game 2. I will say that most of the women's are not 7pm games, so that helps for thier games, but it sucks on the men's side.

    The UW ticket office called me yesterday to see if I was interested in buying season tickets. I had a really nice conversation with the guy. He wasn't pushy at all. I think he thought I was a sure thing as I gushed over my love of the game and the U. He was surprised at my enthusiasm though I had no personal connection with the school itself. In the end I told him I am interested, but at this point I don't know if I go to a game if I'll need 2, 3 or 4 tickets and if they will be Friday or Saturday games, so at this point I'd like to keep my flexibility.

        It will be fascinating to analyze things up and down the roster as the season goes on.

        I think we all expect huge things from the team this year, my family and I are just hoping for lots of nights of Culvers.
        I'm cautiously optimistic. Remember the 2006 Goofers with arguably the best roster in the country? Got knocked out early by Holy Cross. Gotta keep egos (and reading about themselves) in check.

          Me too, but I realize to be a great team, they will need to come together quickly....

            But I bet it was a run ride until that point......

              This F-Ing university.....I went online to buy 4 tickets in the first row of the 3rd tier for Saturday ND and UM. I found spots for both games where 5 seats were available. It won't let me buy these tickets because I am leaving a seat open next to me. I can't help it, I only need 4 seats and I want to sit in these specific seats. So it's basically forcing me to hunt for pockets of 4 seats that are open in areas where I don't want to sit. F-U UW. F-U. Obviously some Fing genius came up with this new for this year because I have never run into this before and I have been buying online for 10+ years. SEIVE.

                I ran into that when buying tickets for the Brewers on short notice. I think it’s just a thing now.

                    Got a nice call from the ticket office today.

                    Still thinking about picking up 2 Saturday night tickets for the season (as doing 4 for the family just makes things very difficult.)

                      Call the ticket office. I'm sure that if you talk to a person they can do things that a computer system can't.

                        I ended up calling and yes, they got me where I wanted to be. The issue really is that now buying online, which is a kinda popular thing these days, restricts you and that bugs the crap out of me. I emailed the ticket office, but they have yet to respond. I'm looking forward to that dialog.

                          So, my family and I are going to Madison and thought we'd catch the Badgers/Bulldogs series. I haven't seen a game in Madison since it was at Dane County.

                          Question: Why is there no game time listed yet? Both games don't have times listed. Is there a chance the games will be noon games or something like that? Saturday I could maybe see that, but looks like the football team isn't at home.

                          Also, I have a 10 year old kid. Any recommendations for fun stuff to do around Madison area?
                          Dirty: Why {shouldn't Grand Valley State} not just go the Miami way to fund DI? Rob banks and sell drugs.
                          bigmrg74: GVSU has some speed, but not that kind of speed.

                            Game times are usually announced once the all of the other Big Ten sports are scheduled and they sort out which games might get TV coverage on Big Ten Network.
                            95% of the games will be 7pm start, sometimes a 6pm or an 8pm depending on TV scheduling.

                            There is the Madison Children's Museum which has lots of interesting and interactive things for kids that age.
                            There is the Henry Vilas Zoo.
                            Depending on the kid's interests, that weekend is also the Wisconsin Science Festival with lots of events in/around Madison.
                            The campus area also has a couple of other museum/exhibit type offerings.

                              Looking at location. What end of the ice would UMD being shooting at for 2 periods, instead of just one?

                                The UW student section is the 113-116 range, with the band in 117. That is the end that UW shoots at twice. So if you want to see the opponent get suffocated by our D and shut out by our GK for 2 of 3 periods, seats in the 125-106 end would be best.
                                The visiting bench is by 121-122, the visiting team comes through the tunnel under 118.
                                The UW bench is by 122-123, they come in through the tunnel under 126.
                                Penalty boxes and score keeper are in the 108 area opposite of the benches.
