So apparently State is pretty close to selling their ticket allotment but that doesn’t take much since it’s just two sections…that are in the corner.

You can pay $90 + fees to MSU or, you can go to StubHub and purchase them in section 239 for $57 ($70 including fees) No thanks MSU. For the same $90 you pay MSU you can drop down to section 139 in lower section and be on goal line instead of corner of endzone in middle level. Something not right w/ that picture. By game day they will be less than that, probably much less, on StubHub

Curious if people who preordered got club sections on sideline? In 2019 I bought through school I got front row of section 134, which thankfully allowed access up into the air conditioned club area.

I have argued this for years in person and on "another sports message board" associated with MSU only to get shredded by blue hairs who think they're entitled to special seating and the MSU heirarchy. I'm like screw this, I've gotten better tickets through stubhub , cheaper too, every single time. If MSU wants ticket sales through MSU, then MSU should compete.

They are offering 3 BDC points now per ticket at least. So you get credit as if you donated $300 to BDC. I’d still pick Stubhub this year though.

It's not a question of competing...the Athletic Department has to sell the tickets they are given...and just so you know...the Bulldog club has to pay for their Allotment up front. the sponsors who put up the money to make the bowl payout possible get the best tickets... so Yes you can get a better ticket on the secondary market but thats a function of how the bowl structure is set up...no need to get all mad ....just understand the dynamic and deal with it

I pre-ordered and they sent an email Sunday asking if I wanted Club or regular ticket..I confirmed Club and my tickets are in 237

With all other tickets whether it be baseball, football or whatever they charge a fee for shipping/handling. They even charge a fee if you walk into the Bryan Bldg and buy them in person

Those are pretty much the worst seats in the stadium, equal to the other 3 corners.

This is the original pre-order email. So there were decent seats available according to this.

Tickets for the yet to be determined bowl game that the Bulldogs are going to this year will be $140 for club seats and $90 for reserved seating. Bowl game tickets will be located along the sideline down to the endzone. Pre-ordering will save you on your tickets as there will not be any per ticket fees. Please be aware that seats will be assigned in priority point rank order among the pre-orders with the highest price point being assigned first. Also, all pre-ordered tickets receive priority over anyone ordering after the deadline of tomorrow, December 2nd.

So assuming that Illinois is also just getting two small sections, that means that the schools are getting a combined what… 4-5k tickets?

do they really think that there are 60k sponsors, clients, and execs out there that want to go to this thing?

Well a set handling charge per order is a far cry from taxes and fees per ticket based on percentage

If they really sold the club sections for $140, that’s actually a decent deal. The face for those is $170 plus fees ($207) on Ticketmaster. Those sections MIGHT drop to $100 or below by gameday, but might not. The corner $90 seats are not worth it unless someone just really wants the BDC points.
