Is it still too late to get tickets.I know you can't get them online anymore, could you possible get them at the RBC?

12/18/2005 12:17:39 PM

People will be selling them like always in the parking lot.

12/18/2005 12:24:57 PM

i too need one

i canceled mine by accident and found out shortly thereafter that the window was closed



....THIS is what I hate about the online system. there will be 1000 empty seats in the student sections and there's no way for kids to get last-minute tickets. it's Winter Break for Christ's sake. open up the box office for student tix like before

12/18/2005 12:35:22 PM

Is this supposed to be a well attended game? I know it's over break, but it is an ACC game. How did the student tickets go? Will the arena be mostly full, or still about like the other "warm-up" games?

12/18/2005 1:08:00 PM

probly less than what Guelph had

12/18/2005 1:09:37 PM

there might be a decent turnout, but there will be lots of empty seats in the student sections


that's a given for a game over break

12/18/2005 1:11:55 PM

I posted this in chit-chat. This shit burns me to death. Any way to change this fucking excuse for a system? I'll be willing to bet that the RBC will be at less than 75% capacity today.

"Good luck picking up a ticket at the window. Ain't going to happen if our experience is any indication.

Yes, the online system for basketball is 50% silly. There's no way in hell the RBC will be a sellout today, and there's no way in hell to get seat as a student.

Hence:
-lost revenues from concessions
-lost potential noise for the home team
-lost potential numbers of students to impress recruits

This is fucking rediculous."

i wonder if there's any way to buy a shitty ticket and move into one of the empty seats in section 127 so I can sit with my friends

12/18/2005 1:14:44 PM

75% ??

that figure is being generous, i bet its maybe half full, speaking optimistically

12/18/2005 1:17:01 PM

I have one student and one guest ticket. I'll let go of the guest ticket for 20 bucks if anyone wants the pair.

12/18/2005 1:25:42 PM

what section is the student ticket?

12/18/2005 1:30:09 PM

im gonna guess the two tickets are seated beside one another

12/18/2005 1:32:01 PM

allow me to rephrase....

in which section are the student and guest tickets located?

12/18/2005 1:33:07 PM

127, row 8, seats 1 and 2

sorry if i don't respond fast, i'm watchin the panthers game

12/18/2005 1:34:15 PM

$15 and you got yourself a deal

tell me where I can get them from you and I'll be right over

12/18/2005 1:35:20 PM

PM sent

12/18/2005 1:59:57 PM

12/18/2005 2:15:09 PM

I've got 2 alumni tickets.... section 109 row M seats 7-8 and a parking pass

12/18/2005 2:39:52 PM

My tickets are gone

12/18/2005 2:54:24 PM

anyone else got any tickets?

could use one, student or free of course

12/18/2005 3:55:55 PM

I just went on to the website last night and printed one for me and bought one for my dad... if student tickets are still left, you should be able to get them online

12/18/2005 3:58:32 PM

the site was shut down, the link i mean

cmon guys, anyone

im on the way to Raleigh now, if anyone sees this thread and has one, my number is 9199229303 please call and help me out, just need one ticket, thanks guys

12/18/2005 4:04:58 PM

i screwed up the ticketing system....anyone got one extra ticket???

12/18/2005 4:10:52 PM

there's a long ass line outside the RBC Center of students waiting to get in, so there was definitely a good turnout

about letting the system allow you to get a student ticket up until game time, it can't happen...there's a long list of reasons why, but no amount of arguing over that will help...it's been beaten to death

they will work on ways to get around this, but giving out extra student tickets at teh gate will only create an atmosphere of all students waiting and there being no tracking available for students....again, there are legitimate reasons to keep tracking for future plans

anyway, I'm tired...peace out

12/18/2005 5:50:56 PM

there may be a long list of reasons for not allowing the online system to work up to tipoff, but mind giving us some?

12/18/2005 5:55:14 PM

uhm... Reason #1: It ISNT that hard to just get a fucking ticket online. And if you accidentally cancel your ticket like some people are whining about, you're just a damn moron and shouldn't be going anyways.

12/18/2005 8:35:55 PM

^^search for it if you really care. He has listed several on many occasions. Hell, he listed 2 right there.

1. giving them out at the gate doesn't allow them to track students with the system
- the reason for this is because they plan on implementing a reward system for going to early games
- and so they can easily keep track of how many students go to the game
2. would create a large amount of people waiting before a game to get a ticket instead of using the system, which then creates more problems associated with tracking people

im too lazy too look for more.

12/18/2005 8:41:47 PM

alot of times if u go to the line and ask people if they have extra student tickets u will get a few people that are carryin extras to get scanned

and thanks to packbacker and dbhawley for helpin me out tonight with tickets

12/18/2005 8:52:55 PM

i'm sure that since the system is all online now, there's a way to track which seats are taken and which aren't

why can't those empty seats be claimed before the game, say 90 minutes prior to tipoff like in the past?

and yes, there were a LOT of empty seats around section 127

12/18/2005 10:18:33 PM

I know of two seats that weren't

12/18/2005 10:23:21 PM

just so we're clear, the system is actually smart enough to fill in the seats from floor up....so when you see empty seats on the floor, those are students who got a ticket and didn't use it

I will continue to advocate for GA by section in RBC just like we used in CF...but here's the main prob w/ that

any motion in the lower bowl of RBC is highly distracting to the players...and they don't want to have too many people in a section and have to send police in to take care of it...because it would be distracting...that's why when they were pulling seats out to get ready for a hurricanes game during one of our bball games they would only move around when there were timeouts

12/18/2005 10:32:22 PM

it doesn't really matter, they won't change things by Jan. and by then there wont be a problem cause ACC season will have started and it should be pretty full\

But the one thing that would be really nice for the games where a lottery isn't even used is a way to get a seat with a couple people together during the on-demand phase. It is kinda hit or miss requesting them at the same time.
