ISU Game IS SOLD OUT

[bert notorius]

You gonna wear O&B to the game?

Just kidding.

You got a ticket for me buddy?

Are you prettier than my woman?
Actually I bought a brand new Reggie shirt, but I keep the Illini hat.

I intend to storm the court no matter who wins.

I am going to storm the restrooms.

ISU is announcing that the game tomorrow night is a sellout.

Their capacity is stated at 10,200, they had 8,185 at their home game Wednesday vs. Drake.

Their last sellout was 2/5/05 vs. BU , attendance was 10,200.


*** I have my tickets, but I won't post here where my seats are, since I am sure some ISU lurker will tell all their friends, and I'll get pelted like Eric Gordon's dad did.

Funny how much everyone seemed to make of that incident, but one of the reasons I didn't go to a game at ISU for most of the past 15 years is that routinely when we'd go to games at Horton FH, we'd get pummeled by ISU fans with garbage, not-so empty coke cups, popcorn, and even got spit on a time or two. Now I don't bring this up to rehash old issues, but if ISU wants more sellouts like this one, they should be smart enough to realize the reason it's a sellout is because there are a whole lot of fans coming from the other school. If they don't want those fans to quit coming, they should assure those fans don't have to be exposed to the crapp I saw many times at ISU, but have never, never, ever seen at Carver.

It had to be Pepsi cups (we don't have coke)

For $100 I'll tell you where Cooksey sits

But I think it was Coke way back then....
and notice I didn't post where my seats are going to be.....
I may come wearing a disguise...

I will have on a jacket with "King T" emblazoned across the back, and carry a breathalyzer just in case...

Dont worry T, if anything happens you'll have a couple thousand Bradley fans to back you up

A little birdie told me that a couple people are not able to show up for the bus trip tonight to ISU. So if you want to roll the dice, you may be able to catch a ride & a couple tickets. Don't kill the messenger though if they don't allow the tickets to be re-assigned/paid for or if someone beats you to it.

I would guess it's just a fire code thing, but I'm not 100% certain whether or not there are other factors. The demand is certainly there for a couple hundred SRO 'seats' to be sold. Not sure why the ISU athletic department would say no to that if they had a choice. Are you going to the game BUBraves06?

Yup, I'll be there!
