ASU Allotment of National Championship Tickets Sold Out
by Appalachian Sports Information

December 11, 2006 - BOONE, N.C. — Appalachian State University’s allotment of 7,500 tickets for Friday’s NCAA Division I Football national championship game officially sold out at 1:45 p.m. on Monday.

Chattanooga officials are in discussions about making a limited number of standing-room-only tickets available. If standing-room tickets are released, they will be available here.

Demand for Appalachian’s ticket allotment was unprecedented. ASU’s campus phone system, which allows for 300 calls to a specific number during a five-minute period, received 1,741 incoming calls to the athletics ticket office during a five-minute interval at one point on Monday morning.

Top-seeded Appalachian (13-1) and No. 3 Massachusetts (13-1) will sqaure off for the national title on Friday evening at 8 p.m. at Chattanooga’s Finley Stadium.

You might get a PM from me later today......... I could be very interested.

BTW: I contacted some of my hookups (players) on our team geez I'm getting old there are only two left that I played with at all ..............and the front office is being pretty tight with who they give their tickets out to. :nonono2: :nonono2:

OK, so how about any unused tickets? Apparently loads more App fans want to go, so theres no reason to not fill the stadium a little past capacity. If Umass can't use all of theirs will those be offered to us, or will they just be empty seats?

This is awesome. Great job GAS fans! We had two good showings for the Semis as far as the fans and the games really. Good showcase for FCS football. And selling out the NC game will make it even better.

I don't think there will be a problem with the excitement of fans during the game, because the products these two teams put on the field is very exciting.

Yah FCS, Yah beer.

Waited in line for 3 and a half hours but got 4 tickets, and thats all that matters. I had no idea the lines were going to be that long, I was practically at Hardee's when I got in line, ended up being 20 minutes late for an exam, faked being out of breath and claimed car troubles (it worked).

The UMass tickets didn't go on sale until today, either. Tickets will be allocated according to priority points (donations, years as season ticketholders, etc.), so if we sell our whole allotment, UMass fans should get preference over outsiders.

ASU Kep
December 11th, 2006, 04:30 PM
So if I didn't have a ticket right now all I'd do is keep on calling and if asked claim to be a HUGE UMASS fan. If you guys had caller ID, I'd claim to be an alumnus living in enemy territory. Easy as pie.

UMASS is going to sell its allottment (hopefully to UMass fans and not Appy fans trying to break the rules : smh : ) Apparently this game is sold out and the Chatty locals are a big part of it. The UMass band was moved to an end zone to accommodate more ticket holders.

Should be fun!

I don't think its that classless a thing to do, Umass people have just as much a shot at our tickets, and if thats the only way to go if i didnt already have Tix i might do it.
If they really wanted to filter just make it walk-up only and if an app fan drives up there they deserve it.

Every UMass alumnus gets 2 priority points just for graduating, and anybody who has ever donated $100 to UMass athletics gets at least 2 priority points. That would put them ahead of any App fans on the priority list. I'm not saying it's impossible that a few might have slipped through the cracks, but I would hope our ticket office has a handle on this.

I think Chatty locals bought up a BUNCH of the tickets early on knowing should ASU make it the demand would be higher..............that is the word I'm getting right now. It looks like they plan on making money off this game, take a look how much these $20 face value tickets are going for on E-bay. I saw 2 for $300 :eek: .

I see why they would do it too, I mean you got people who have hotel's reserved and such who will pay that. Also they are gonna be in town regardless of who is in the game. Where as the football fans want to see the teams they pull for.

They are taking *all* orders, then using the priority points to assign tickets. Rumor is there were more than enough priority point orders that unless you had points you weren't getting tickets. So that person that 'got away with it' might not have tickets.

As far as UMass fans doing it for the Frozen Four or Final Four, I would like to think our fans have more class than that. It is a different thing if you wait until our fans have bought and THEN buy the leftovers, but trying to block UMass fans out is just crap.

BS. There is nothing unethical about it at all. You guys havn't sold your tickets yet (like 10% of the tickets we got and have already sold out) so now we're taking them. If your fans really wanted them that bad, they would've stood in 4-5 hour lines like our fans did this morning to make sure us evil ASU fans couldn't get a crack at em.

You can feel that way. I feel its crap, a large number of alumni don't live in the Amherst area and can't just take a day off to pick up tickets. If you all started this tomorrow afternoon AFTER our fans had a crack at them it wouldn't be a problem. Put it this way, if you were waiting in line and UMass fans were calling YOUR ticket office and buying tickets woulnd't you be pissed off? Right now the 'lineup' is the phone for all the UMass fans, and you all are jumping in.

Tickets to the 2006 NCAA Division I Football National Championship Game, being offered through UTC, are sold out, officials said Monday.

It is the first sell-out in the 10 years the title game has been in Chattanooga.

In the event that standing room only tickets are made available, these will immediately be offered for sale on-line at www.gomocs.com



Also, you may call the UTC ticket office at 423-266-6627.

Attorney Jerry Summers said his firm, Summers and Wyatt, bought a group of tickets and those are available at $25 each. That price includes a $5 donation to Special Olympics.

Call the Summers office at 265-2385.

Appalachian State and Umass will be playing in the national title game.

Kickoff is Friday at 8:07 p.m.

Im going to settle this right now. UMass has their way of giving out the 1000 tickets they ordered. UMass will give them out to points members and Alumni Association memebers first. I have worked in the UMass tix office the 4 years I attended there. They have a system to find out who have bought any kind of umass tix over the last many years. They can also find out if you are an alumni or ever donated to the university. Chances are... if you are none of the above... you will not get tickets through UMass.

If that's the case then no ASU fan is going to bump a deserving UMass fan. If you don't sell all yours, then the ASU fans waiting in the "back of the line" will be able to purchase them. I have never heard anyone claim that buying available tickets wherever they can get them is unethical. To suggest this would be some effort on the part of ASU to block out UMass fans is a bit over the top. ASU fans are just looking at whatever available option is out there to purchase tickets.

Man, I feel lucky just to get my tickets to the NC game. It took me about ten minutes of getting a busy signal at the App Ticket office, then 20 minutes on hold to score some in Section 229 about 1/2 way up the section. These aren't great seats, but at least I'm in the house. At least I don't have to resorts to scalping. BTW what are TN's laws reagrding that? I can understand trying to get tickets through UMass, but it isn't something I would do myself. No offense, but I would not want to sit in the middle of the Minuteman fans anyway.;)

There are no options unless more tix are released... if that doesnt happen then stay home. Its not our fault you didnt get a shot at ur 7500. Stay away from ours.

How do u know they arent all sold out?

I guess we'll know tomorrow. Not much point in debating this any further, IMHO. If we return any tickets, I'm sure App fans will scoop them up. Oh, and Skyhawk Nation, I don't think it's a "Yankee" thing to be a little PO'd when our lines are tied up with opposing fans trying to grab our small allotment and legitimate UMass fans can't get through.

Well why wouldn't they put it on their site or anything? Let people know they are sold out.

I second Skyhawk Nation. I'm sick of hearing this "umassfan" cry like a baby. Wake up, this is the real world. You've obviously never attended or tried to attend any big 1-A games.

I have been on these boards for a couple years now and rarely post because most of the time (just like this time) these threads are just little petty arguments to keep people with spare time on their hands busy. Some of the umass fans' demanding posts got under my skin (i.e. "DO NOT CALL OUR TICKET OFFICE" "If that doesnt happen then stay home. Its not our fault you didnt get a shot at ur 7500. Stay away from ours.") so I'm stooping to his (umassfan's) level and posting. And he had the nerve to call us rude?!? wtf is this guy smoking?

After reading this thread, in particular umassfan's posts, I think this is one of the stupidest threads I have ever read. Each college gets their allotment to sell to whom they choose. There is nothing wrong with trying to get a ticket from a PUBLIC ticket office. No matter who you are, or what team you pull for. Talking about umass fans buying from app or app buying from umass as being classless, unethical, etc is completley assinine.

Question: If you are a umass fan who lives in Chattanooga and it's easier for you to just go over to UTC and get a ticket, is that wrong? Is that classless? You just bought a ticket from UTC and MAYBE kept one of their supporters out of the game.

This thread is ridiculous. Just like umassfan.

You must not have read this thread very well. I made two posts on this thread. One was telling how the UMass tix office will deal with this and a responce to seahawk nation for being stupid. I made one comment about app fans having their chance of the 7500 tickets they got. I really think your reading skills need to improve if you want to attack me. If it was a legit statement to me then I wouldnt care but you are totally clueless. That isnt something new though because App fans this whole week so far have been clueless about anything to do with UMass. Im not suprised. :nonono2:

There are no options unless more tix are released... if that doesnt happen then stay home. Its not our fault you didnt get a shot at ur 7500. Stay away from ours.

Technically, they belong to whomever buys them. I have no problem if your ticket office gives preference to your supporters, I would want ASU to do the same. However, I can't blame fans looking for tickets wherever they are being sold.

I'm gonna be so pissed when fair weather ASU's fans ( and I know there are some ) start leaving if we get up a few in the third like they did this past weekend b/c it is too cold........ and I am at home watching the game on TV. If you can't stay the whole game give up the seats or donate some more to the Yosef Club! :mad: Sorry I'm just starting to get a little frustrated. I know they help out our program a bunch, even if they are old and don't like to be cold.

A lot of those people who left early last weekend were going to get in line for Championship tickets. Myself included.

I hardly ever leave early no matter what the score.. But this time I left to get in line to buy NC tickets...

I had never left early from an ASU football game... ever but when we were up 49-17 with a few minutes left and I could see the lines growing, I had to go join them... I dont call myself a fair weather fan and I dont think there is anything wrong with that.

ok, heres the deal..

one of my friends just called me and told me that he heard rumor of appalachian re-opening ticket sales at 12pm today...kind of an unreliable source. can anyone confirm or disprove this "rumor", and if true, where would they be gettin tickets from, SRO?

As of 11:14 est the ASU ticket office says that ASU will not receive any additional tickets. Any additional tickets will only be available through gomocs.com.

When as asked if they had been told anything about SRO they said NO!

Yes...those were more than likely some of the one's returned by Montana...all of which were sent by the organizing committee to ASU.

So how good are the chances of going to chatt and getting tickets scalped or the standing room only at the gate?

If it were me, and I were an ASU student or ASU fan living with 4 or 5 hours of Chattanooga, I would seriously consider going to Chattanooga, trying to get tickets, then (if not tickets could be found) heading to a sports bar to watch the game.

Hang out with the tailgaters, go to the pavillion to hear the bands play and be a part of the celebration, then go watch the game someplace nearby if you have to.

A take-charge type fan who doesn't have tickets might even call a sports bar in Chatty to reserve a sport ofr a couple dozen people. When the game's over (provided ASU wins), you're in town to celebrate with 15,000 of your closest ASU friends.

Then again, maybe you could try the same thing in Boone.
