  • I bought my 4 tickets (@$80 ea.) thru the MSU Ticket Office system-which worked GREAT! I could care less if someone gets theirs for less. Just one more reason for more Spartans to get to this game!

    It won't be like that at all

    i'll take your word for it. people did say the same thing about attendance being ok last time and look how it ended up.

    i was just saying in terms of the feeling leading up to the game.

    it does seem clear that wisconsin fans are assuming they'll get to Pasadena. can't wait to beat them again.

  • The Craigslist Killer is going to pick you all off with a Barrett .50 from the press box. (Yeah, I know...a Barrett .50 would be overkill).

    Edit to add: panic

    Fans, please be aware, regarding the Big Ten Football Championship Game, the Big Ten is NOT paying fans to attend. #B1GFCG

  • That looks fake to me....

    Basically because it's anonymous and only on craigs-list is kind of a give away.

    I'd think Indiana Sports would give the extra tickets to local schools/charities, or sell them at a discounted price at a local store chain/give them away at Subway or something before going the filler route.

    Yup. For the bowl games in Florida the "extra" tickets are given to local schools/organizations/youth teams.

    Adam, although you said you weren't concerned about the B1G title game selling out, what do you think about this Craigslist Ad posted on MGoBlog recruiting seat-fillers and the report that there are 9000 tickets for sale on Stubhub for $10? Doesn't sound like the inaugral championship game is a big hit so far, does it?

    Adam Rittenberg (12:17 PM)

    Only going to address this once. Craig's List ad is not from the Big Ten. It's bogus and shouldn't have been reported by some who should know better. While there are some seats available, I think the event will still be a sellout or close to it.

    Also, 5700/8800 tickets on Stub Hub were not part of the MSU/Wis Allotments. They are 500-600 level seats.

    These are tickets being dumped by fans of other schools who bought them up in the pre-sales before their team was in.

  • EDSBS is reporting that they got a reply from "ICC". Now, with everyone that EDSBS does it needs to be taken with a silo of salt:

    Our client has asked for discretion about this opportunity, as "seat-filling" is behind-the-scenes aspect of this event production.

    On the day of the event event, we will designate a parking garage and validate your parking. Seat fillers will be assigned seats inside or near the event close to the event start time. We expect fillers will need to be checked in around 6:30pm on Saturday. The event itself begins shortly after 8pm, and we expect it to conclude close to midnight. You will receive payment at the end of the evening upon turning in the paperwork given to you at the beginning of the evening.

    Yeah...because they're going to give up a prime downtown parking deck....

    I wonder if they are advertising free boats too...

    My friend and I just responded to the ad. We already spent way too much on our tickets the day after the Indiana game, but who knows, maybe we can get $75 a piece for showing up.

    Can we get Admiral Akbar to weigh in on this?

    Michigan State does not and will not run the 3-4 defense.

  • What does it take to post on Craigslist? A library card and a keyboard?

    I am only sorry I didn't think of it first and use it at the OSU umaa game last week.
