FYI, Understand the Furman fans are making a run on tickets too. Watch out.

I figured that would get you sensitive Griz fans all worked up.

I bought 14 this past summer and my father in law bought 6 more yesterday. My reasoning was the first year I paid ~$150 per ticket. I vowed to never let that happen again even if I took a greater risk at buying tickets earlier in the season. My thoughts for us having 20 tickets is that if NDSU makes it to Frisco again, GREAT we are set. If they do not make it I plan to sell them at what they cost me, face value and fees, and be done with them.

Go Bison!

We bough ours this summer too. Whether the Bison make it our not, we won't be selling ours. We have 20 or so cuz some of my group bought 3 year tickets, and some us just bought for this year.

I have usually just relied on other people to get tickets. I grew in up in Fargo and have tons of friends and family that I could get tix from but decided to help myself this year.

Does anyone have an extra ticket you are willing to sell at face value (or for a reasonable premium)?

When tickets first when on sale, I didn't think I'd be able to make it. Now it looks like I can, but the cheapest tix I've been able to find online are around $120/seat.

Be patient. I've never seen someone who couldn't get tickets. People take advantage of those with a lot of money and a corresponding lack of sense. You will be able to find things VERY near face value if not below. Don't bite on the first rush.

Agree. My FAM got tix late last year for the NC at a reasonable price. Don't get nervous, just wait it out.

Do the participating school ticket offices get some tickets to sell the week before the game like most regular season away games?

4k a piece. They give away what they need then sell the rest.

You need to be quite the baller to get those tickets from NDSU.

Yes, ~4000 each but that's including everything like the band (although they've put the bands in the open end zone the last couple years due to how many fans NDSU and SHSU drew), the players' tickets, and the university staff tickets so most schools probably only make about 3200-3500 available to the fans. I'd assume that the die hards at most FCS schools would have an easy enough time getting a ticket from their school's allotment but not for fans from schools like NDSU, Montana, or the SLC teams (due to their proximity to Frisco).

9 Bison season tickets and 14 tickets (single year tix) for Frisco for my group. If the Bison don't make it, I will dump them at/below face value....bought them more as insurance than anything.

Cool. If Maine makes it through somehow, I have the ticket office on speed dial.

If 2010 is any indication, you might be in luck. Don't see Maine as a heavy traveling team.

Ive been to most of the playoff games over the past decade, and you are correct, not a lot of Maine fans in attendance. Mostly parents, friends, and a few big donors. We had a good crowd at the UNI dome in 2001....boy that's a long time ago.

Speaking of tickets, anybody possibly have a couple extra Bison tickets for the 14th weekend assuming we win our first game.

That's not how this works. Those will go on sale Dec 8th. You will have the same opportunity as others to pickup tickets!

Nope, but hit the computer/phone hard on Sat morning (gobison.com). Season tickets that are not renewed go up for sale (a lot of corporate tickets usually).

Oops, didn't see the dates you were referring to....same thing applies regarding season tickets. Keep an eye on when they are released.

I'm trying to decide if I want to come back up to Fargo for the Qtrs or Semis. Before a lot of smack talk runs around, I firmly believe I have a choice.

I'm heading back home with my family this weekend and not sure if I want to turn around and come right back 2 weeks later. I'd much rather see Montana than SELA, however.

Call the ticket office and find out exactly when they go on sale. Dont forget to ask them when they sell any extras that the opposing team returns from there allotment.

US consumes 450 million lbs/year. Domestic beekeepers produce around 140-150 million lbs....the rest is imported.

I figured there was to the story about the honey. Hey Bison in NW MN can I buy some from you? We will be up for the second round and then hopefully the Bison keep winning and we will be up for those games as well.

My neighbors were professional bee farmers in ND and Cali. Muy delicioso.
