I've been watching ticket prices all week, and they've steadily dropped. Today, I can get section 109, which is the corner on the court on the lower level, for less than $90. On Sunday those same tickets were both of $150. I'll grab 2 today for Mrs Mo and me. Maybe they'll even drop a few more dollars by this afternoon. 

[Uncle Boobs 1248]

Has anyone figured out what section our bench is in front of so I know where to buy tix? Thanks in advance.

[Uncle Boobs 1248]

Negroe league museum, jims bar, Jack's stacks, Tom's distillery, zoo bar all partakes. I'm a little drunk.

[Uncle Boobs 1248]

Also thanks everyone for answering my question about which sextion.

[YGIFS 19452]

Sextion?  Where the hell did you end up last night man?

[Underdog 28742]

Kemper Arena

[KingBobo81 535]

Flying there today - see y’all tomorrow!

[Skipper 6140]

For those there where are the best pre-game spots?  Flying in and out tomorrow.

Power and Light is right across the street from the arena. Several things there to choose from for both food and drink. Are you looking for anything specific?

Nope.  Know nothing about KC. Meeting up with others flying in from Austin at airport.  Think we have reservations at some (surely overrated) KC BBQ joint (Q39) then not sure what we're doing but good to hear a bunch of options for beers by the arena.

Q39 is actually good, as long as you understand it's not Texas BBQ. That and Joe's are the 2 best, that aren't little hole in the wall joints.

For those of who you who ordered through UT, have you gotten your tickets for tomorrow yet? Email earlier this week said we would get them today, but I have gotten jack shit thus far

[dittohead 92]

Just got my tickets from Texas about 20 mins ago.  Same seats as Friday

[Mo Horn 8852]

I've been looking, but prices are crazy high. Much more than what we paid for last night. 

[Ignatius 4017]

FWIW, I still haven’t gotten shit from UT….

[KingBobo81 535]

I got mine…they were slightly worse. Ugh. If anybody needs two-three let me know - you’ll be sitting with me in 206 row 8 (unless I decide to buy a single downstairs)

[Ignatius 4017]

Mine showed up about an hour ago; different section but more or less same quality, though these are on the aisle at least…

[KingBobo81 535]

Anybody know for sure which bench we will be behind - I am assuming section 105 based on my upper deck seat location?

[Uncle Boobs 1248]

Shit. I was assuming 107 again.

[Skipper 6140]

Hope it is 107 as that's where we bought.  I believe it should be - someone in our group talked to someone on staff and thought it would be 107.

I think it will drop.  Folks I'm going with wanted to buy and we 'think' behind Texas section.  But there was a ton of lower inventory when I was looking a few hours ago that has no place to go but down tomorrow.  

[KingBobo81 535]

In Des Moines the high seed was always on the same bench - we were highest seed in round 1 night session….switched benches in round 2 as Kansas was the high seed of the session - that way the second highest seed (us) had their fans behind benches instead of on opposite side.

I’m assuming same logic is going to apply here and the bench for us tomorrow will be whatever Houston’s was (I wasn’t there but presuming 105) on Friday.

If that's the case, I feel bad for the Miami fans sitting around us.

[KingBobo81 535]

I bought a single in 105 and it has the same “team b” designation as my uppers in 206

[Uncle Boobs 1248]

I'm gonna buy down low in 105 I trust you

[Mo Horn 8852]

Tickets bought, and for less than we paid on Friday. Most are still high, but obviously someone was afraid they weren't going to get anything. Works for me. 

[KingBobo81 535]

If I’m wrong I’ll buy you a beer! I’ll be in row 17 seat 1

[KingBobo81 535]

I’ve got good news and bad news for you Uncle Boob, and they are both the same. I’m in 105 and it’s def the Texas section, so you aren’t getting that free beer

The Creighton guy pushed the SD shooter on the way to the basket and altered his shot. It was a foul.

The idea of "swallowing your whistle" at the end of the game is stupid and beyond. If it's a foul, you call it. 

If you don't call it you need to be something other than officiating.
