tickets already sold out? Not pulling up anything available.
Possibly. Also possible that the website is overloaded. Season tix holders could reserve tickets last week, so who knows how many were left for general public today.

I was on at 9:00 and by the time it let me through it was too late. My kid is not happy with me.

I sold two of mine for $450 a piece to some moron stranger. Lol.

I did sell two at face value to a Halo poster, though. So I’m a horrible person, but not the worst.
You did the right thing(s).

Niko got 2 tickets for 10.00 apiece and it included 2 glasses of top shelf bourbon.

But that doesn't include the price of his tickets to fly to Iowa City...
I bought you some tickets. I left them for you in a Bible somewhere in the Metro.

That Washington Post article linked above on Clark was excellent.

Thank you for that. Pretty happy to get two tickets for $250.

Before all you guys get excited about the game, just wanted to let you know all the players on the court will be women's basketball players
Yeah but one of them is so good she could be the 5th person off the bench for the men's team!

I wonder if people paying out the ass for these tickets forgot that they will be watching a terrible 2 vs 15 game.

Much like the Rose Bowl game after the 2015 season, the initial rush for tickets was the time to strike. Every ticket I saw was $500 or more. Listed mine for $450 and they sold immediately. The prices are nowhere near that now because the market has settled into more normalcy. Granted, I sold two tickets to all sessions, but the total at face was $30 for the entire deal.

Iowa’s potential 2nd game opponent FSU will be without 2 players, including their leading scorer/PG.

Yo BBK I just found out the women would play in Seattle if they make the sweet 16. Wanna go? I have plenty of space in my house for you! We could stand outside the stadium with signs that say "Faggots"

I'm sure BBK really wants to go stay in a homeless shelter for a few days.

The main scoreboard going blank under a minute all day was weird.
That’s mostly what I noticed. They also had the first five minutes of ARK/ILL as the second half with timeouts used. Not really huge things, but things nonetheless.

Also weird they had closed captioning of the announcer on the ribbon board, but no running game ticker from other tournament sites.

I guess I didn’t notice that. There were running scores opposite us, although the signal was good enough it was just easier to check on the phone.
