Citrus Bowl STUDENT Travel Package NOW available. Very affordable

I think the U should be able to figure out a way to get every student that wants to go on a bus for that price (or bump the price if that is not feasible). Hotel shouldn't be an issue, ticket shouldn't be an issue (it won't sell out). These are future season ticket holders if handled correctly.

Make it happen Norwood!
 

Nax91 - Good luck. I hope you get to the bowl game!

Agreed. Supply and demand. Tons of demand right now. If the U can't swing it, bump up the price and see if demand keeps pace. I'd LOVE to see tons of students there! This is a huge opportunity to creat lifelong fans...ones who travel.
 

Just had a nice exchange with the @MyGopherSports twitter page. Turns out three friends and I made the list, while two are still waiting. Sad for the two, but I'll see you guys in Florida!
 

I am luckily on the bus, but I have six or seven friends currently on the wait list. They received the following email yesterday:

University of Minnesota Students,

Thank you for your interest in the student travel package for the Buffalo Wild Wings Citrus Bowl. We are in the process of adding additional buses for the road trip. On Monday, December 15th we will be calling everyone on the wait list to inform you if your priority has been selected to purchase a travel package. If your wait list priority has been selected, payment for the travel package must be provided no later than Tuesday, December 16th at 12:00pm. If payment is not received by that time, your reservation will be forfeited.

For any other questions, please call the Gopher Sales & Service Department at 1-800-U-GOPHER. The Gopher Sales & Service Department is open Monday-Friday 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
 


For some of you who have been unfairly harping on the U of M ticket office at times in regards to the student ticket bowl package process. Looks like even a seasoned bowl bound ticket office such as Ohio State goes through some of the same things the U of M is. i.e. Exceptionally high demand for a limited supply of tickets/space available. Thus asking for patience from their fans while they get all things figured out and see if they can obtain any more tickets/space to try and meet some or all of said high demand. My point is that some need to stop with the ridiculous bashing of the U of M ticket office or stupidly calling them idiots or constantly saying they don't know what they are doing. It is petty and lame. I trust they know what they are doing and please try to just have some degree of patience and hopefully you get a ticket from the limited supply available. Cheers!


Below is an email from an Ohio State message board regarding the current Ohio State student/faculty/staff Sugar Bowl ticket process. It is in reaction to the high demand from students/faculty/staff for the limited supply of tickets/space they have available (just like we are seeing):

"We know you're anxiously awaiting information regarding the status of your Sugar Bowl ticket request. The demand for tickets has far exceeded the supply available. Due to this overwhelming demand, we are attempting to secure additional tickets to accommodate as many requests as possible. We are still awaiting confirmation on the total quantity of additional tickets we are able to acquire, resulting in a slight delay in the timeline that was originally communicated.

We expect to receive confirmation of our final ticket numbers over the weekend and we are committed to having all credit cards processed for those receiving tickets and all notification emails sent by Monday, December 15th at Noon ET. We expect to ship all tickets on the 19th.

We appreciate your patience as we work diligently toward ensuring that as many Buckeye supporters can follow the team to New Orleans as possible.

Please feel free to contact the Athletics Ticket Office via email to [email protected] or by phone at 1-800-GOBUCKS should you have any questions. Customer service representatives are available via phone Monday-Friday 8am-5pm.

Thank you for your continued support of Ohio State Athletics!
The Ohio State Athletics Ticket Office"
