OK I have been holding out re invite to my condo for anyone who might be coming to AKRON--However that will not work this time as my Great-granddaughter will be staying --along with her parents --with me. In any case, Ben--Juliet's Dad. will be going to the game with me---

Will any of you guys (Gals) be there ?????

Well. this is interesting--at least to me. I have reserved two tickets behind LUC bench first row @ 18.00 ea. That price looks just fine to me--BTW they want 30.oo per tkt to the ZIP game.

Does this sound like what LUC is doing with their tkts ??

Not sure I follow, Brot. Did you get the tickets for $18 each or $30 each?

Sorry to be so cryptic--My seats cost 18.00 ea !! Kent St is charging THIRTY DOLLARS a seat for the AKRON U ZIP game. ( Hated rivals)

These seats are chair backed and right behind our bench--two rows up !!

My question is --Is LUC doing the same with its tkts--up charging for certain games ??? I do believe $ 18.00 is about right for my town .- vis - a- vis Chgo .

Yes. They are doing premium pricing based on opponent and date

Tier 1 (Wichita State, Illinois State)
•Adult: $30 (Gold), $27 (Maroon), $20 (General Admission)
•Youth (4-14): $20 (Gold), $15 (Maroon), $12 (General Admission)

Tier 2 (Tulane, Jackson State, Southern Utah, Bradley, Drake, Evansville, Indiana State, Southern Illinois, Northern Iowa, Missouri State)
•Adult: $22 (Gold), $19 (Maroon), $10 (General Admission)
•Youth (4-14): $15 (Gold), $10 (Maroon), $8 (General Admission)

Tier 3 (Rockhurst, McKendree, Abilene Christian)
•Adult: $17 (Gold), $14 (Maroon), $7 (General Admission)
•Youth (4-14): $12 (Gold), $7 (Maroon), $5 (General Admission)


For reference, the Gold seats are the best seats and are chairbacks

If it costs KSU fans $30 to see Akron, ours get a deal to see a top 10 team for $30. If I remember, the price for the best seats at the LU/WSU game last year was way more than $30 right?

Thanks !! Then I wager that LUC is pricing their seats about right ---22.00 vs 18 for best seats -- at least compared to us here in OHIO---Zips games are comparable. Now then OHIO ST is another matter altogether-- They do think they are the best thing going !!! YUCK !!

It helps that they're always in the tournament and the best team within 2 hours of Columbus. Hell, the closest team that could compete with them on a basketball court was tanking for draft picks the past 4 years.

It sure was nice to see Dayton knock off arrogant OSU last year in the tourney. The headline was even better: "THE University of Dayton" (poking fun at OSU's insistence that they be called "The" Ohio State University).
