Hope we turn the building red on Thursday afternoon. Any idea what section the IU section is for that first session?
 
I have one more kick to the nuts left in me.

I too old. The kick to the nuts this year happened in the first Michigan game. Now I wear a cup and watch only portions of an IU game. I can only stand to see so much IU basketball. I usually change the channel when we're up 3-5 with 2-3min left. I just pretend that we will somehow rise to the occasion and actually win. Then, later, I just go to CBS Sports to see the final result. Yes, it's pathetic, but IU basketball today does take massive balls to watch. My hat goes off to you guys with "balls of steel" who can still do it. An IU fan "takes a beating and keeps on ticking."

It does take balls of steel to watch especially the last five minutes when it is a close game. You gotta not let losing bother you in the least because that has been the outcome in bascially every close game that goes down to to the wire.

I’ve watched every damned minute. My balls have never been this sore

As we get older we have to pay attention to our blood pressure. I suppose the way this team has played we might have apathy. Perhaps apathy actually saves our lives because we just don't get excited anymore.

IIRC, 2-9 in games that came down to the wire. 3-9 if you want to consider the blown 27 point lead to Minny. I don't.
 
look for me, why would I make that up, what I'm wanting to do is trade out to get into 5 for the iu game, you know anyone in that area
row 15 was the best I got, that guy gives a ton of money and is 75. So you know someone or you give 25k+ a year. Somehow I don't think its the latter. I have been known to be wrong tho!

Dont know of any in Section 5. I plan on just going and sitting there with empty seats on Thursday.

you would be wrong, the problem with your plan you can't do that anymore, the sections are blocked off and to get to the middle you have to be scanned through a special entrance, they installed a club bar down below sections 4 5 6 that's the way it was at crossroads and a couple of pacer games I've went to. I did have my seats backward actually row 7 seat 4. Why I'm willing to trade a couple of sessions for access to 5. whole different perspective I don't like watching games from the corners and would rather sit in the top row than behind the basket
 
I might go Friday if we win Thursday. I'll be in town for my oldest's basketball tournament at Grand Park.

ill be in section 16 row 5
 
Those 3 and the Ticket Office told me 106 as well. I ended up in 105. Pretty good allocation vs previous years if you ask me.
Section 16 looks pretty sweet to me!
Go Hoosiers!!!!!
@indianasportstickets and I bought some on the secondary market. Thursday crowd will be pretty weak I bet (upper level tickets aren’t moving at all) 11:30 tip is a tough ask. But every game IU wins, the next will be much more crowded.

if IU actually made it to Saturday that building would be electric. One time Hoosiers, one time!!!!

Lower your expectations Cav, you will be happier in the long run!

Well.....Damon Bailey was better as an 8th grader than anyone else at IU so I say we put your boy in. What can it hurt? Good look to him and hope he has a great time playing ball.
Always fun to get down and see the Indy talent. This is "pre season" for AAU, so he won't get to see all the best Indy kids in his age group. But there are a handful of good teams playing. A couple from Grand Rapids too that are really good. Pretty much anything at Grand Park is fun for us "Northerners"

Can you tell us what team your son plays for? My son played AAU for many years, all over the Midwest and even did the NY2LA tour for 2 years. Lots of talent out there!
When my son was in 6th grade, his team played the Indy Hoosiers that had Wilkes and Scruggs on it. Also played against Xavier Tillman over a few years.
 
I have up to 5 tickets for the session tomorrow ; section 210 row 3 , seats 5-9; asking 25$ a piece. PM me if interested.
