Cleveland Roll Call

[xubball1993]

Who's going?

Any advice/insight on ticket acquisition is appreciated!

[Muskie]

I'm interested as well. Not sure i can pull it off though.

[xufan02]

I need 4 tickets, please pm me if you have tickets.

[stxxu]

I live in sunny Cleveland so I am definitely in. Will probably have a good four or five others that are coming with me.

[bobbiemcgee]

tons of tickets on ebay.

[Emp]

In. The best question is where X fans will be warming up before the game.


Best way to tix: Be or know a season ticket holder, who gets first pref at ordering tickets (last month.)

Second best: scalp.

Third: go without a ticket and look for a solo for sale around the event, esp whereever the X fans and alums are . I found tix for others in DC two years ago by just being patient.

[xumuskies08]

I am planning on going. I am home from school on SB this week so it will be perfect. Is Stubhub the cheapest?

[Frambo]

Going with Xavier Bob....need tickets - thanks for the advice. Anyone with some and not going....send me an PM.

Go Muskies!

[BBC 08]

My dad and I will be going if we get tickets.

[ReturnOfTheMack]

I'll be there along with three or four fellow Muskies. I'll be the drunk guy wearing Xavier gear.

[gladdenguy]

I'm going no matter what....waiting for the time.....daytime game probably.

[Rickmc23]

i'll be there ... Friday only unfortunately.

For tickets ... ticketmaster typically releases "friday only" tickets later in the week. If not, I'll scalp some before game time.

[CinciX12]

I'm willing to pay about $250 for a ticket. So yeah I think so lol.

[KingCole]

I'll be there with at least 6 others.

[Snipe]

I want to go and scalp when I get there. In my experience tickets are acually cheaper when you scalp. That has happened everytime except Rupp Arena where I had to pay $100 bucks a ticket. But that venue had Ohio State, Louisville, and Xavier and tickets were scarce.

We need to get an idea of how ticket sales are going. I want to go to Cleveland. I need to be in Cleveland.

We are going to own Cleve Land.

THIS IS OUR HOUSE! Muskies fans gets your asses in gear. This Team does need you. You need to be there if you are on this board and in driving distance.

[LA Muskie]

I'd love to go...anyone out there have access to a private jet?

[X-band '01]

Can't make it to Cleveland - the Xavier women are playing the 1st and 2nd round games at home this year. I don't know yet if their 1st game is Saturday or Sunday - their bracket gets announced tomorrow night.

[Ledgewood]

I will be there. Im hoping for not the latest game cuz I have tickets to see Adam Carolla that night. This is a dream come true for me to have the boys down the street. Awww, yeah.

[X-Fan]

I'll be there. Planning on getting my tickets via a scalper.

[Xavier Bob]

Going with Frambo still looking for tickets. Any out there let me know.

[powerofX]

So my master plan of buying tix to the Charlotte games last June did not work out. Going to sell my tix to Duke or Carolina fan...migh be able to come up, but it's a long shot.

[LadyMuskie]

We're going to try to head up, but its still up in the air. I was sort of hoping for a Thursday/Saturday pick because I had planned a girls' night out on Friday, but all of that might be changing because X is the priority.

[FIGHTING MUSKETEER]

I'm too far to make the trip but my heart, and whatever part of my brain is left, will be there. My office will close at noon and I'll be in front of the TV with 2 friends, Rum and Coke. All of you from Ohio, please fill up Cleveland with all the mighty X you can find and rock the place. Long live the X, by far THE best letter of the abc.

Shouldn't you be flipping 3 and 2? I'd exhaust all X fan options before scalping.

[theprofessor]

just an fyi... The friday session only tickets only go on sale when the full session tickets dont sell out and since only singles are available now, i dont see the xavier session going on sale later this week.

You only paid a hundy for the OSU game, where tix were indeed scarce. For BYU you got a ticket from 94' at the pregame function at Rupp. The same pregame function where Valerie Plame and Muskienick appeared.

[xu drew]

i will be there. how i get there and get tix are small details that will work themselves out later in the week.

[94GRAD]

IN! Leaving thursday night.

[D-West & PO-Z]

No tix yet but I'll be there.

[ThePowerOfX]

The 5 popes are currently in the process of attempting to find tickets...if anyone knows of any let us know....

[XU05and07]

stub hub has tickets...some good seats for lots of $, some high up seats for significantly less

Hopefully, we'll hear soon about any alumni party. Otherwise there are lots of bars and eateries surrounding the Q. The Winking Lizard is always packed before and after Indians' (atleast in the past) and Cavs games. Panini's & Harry Buffalo are also popular choices

99% sure I'm in

[stxxu]

I just bought six upper levels tickets for myself and five friends (all session tickets). I live a block away from the Q so if anyone has any questions about the area (or wants to meet up before games), feel free to let me know.

[ThePowerOfX]

Also, if anyone knows of hotels that allow Under 21s to book in the downtown area, let us know...running into some obstacles...

[Jesuit4Life]

I'm in. I caved and just went through StubHub, and probably didn't get that good of a deal. But I don't care. :)

And this may be helpful for visualizing seat locations: http://seatviewer.cavs.nba.com/

[XUOWNSUC]

I'll be there w/ my 6 year-old son. The later start means I'll probably have to get a hotel. Anybody else looking for one? If so, what have you found? Would it be better to drive a little bit south after the game and find one there?

I got a room at Red Roof Inn ( Middleburg Hts) about 20 min south of Downtown right off I-71. Cost $38 a night. Train station 2 blocks away. Train cost $2.50 each way and goes into downtown at Tower City.

$38/night?! what kind of hotel is that?!

[flatspat]

It's not bad. I have stayed there before. If you don't believe me go to www.redroof.com.

[Snipe]

This list is not nearly long enough.

[Pluto]

I'll be there. No tickets yet but have some leads that will get me more than I need. I'll post if extras (1-2) are available

[golfitup]

Ledgewood and I will be there. And probably obnoxious to the extreme.

[PMI]

Can't make it to Cleveland - the Xavier women are playing the 1st and 2nd round games at home this year. I don't know yet if their 1st game is Saturday or Sunday - their bracket gets announced tomorrow night.

Dude, Band Man. Dude. That's like passing on your best friend's bachelor party in Vegas to stay home for your sister's girl's night.

[Pluto]

Just won a eBay auction...$180 for 2 tickets. Section 216

[Snipe]

Pluto gets some reps just for attending. We need the home court advantage in these games. If you go I will rep you, and if I have already repped you I will rep you again later. We should all be repping the people that represent.
