Tickets for Duke

[cdnhoya]

Fellow hoya fans,

I am not an alumni. I am not a donor. I am just a huge hoyas fan who is making plans to fly to the nation's capital for the duke game. Is there any way to get tickets to this game? It seems that they are not available to the public until Jan 4.

I assume that the game will be sold out and I will have to go through a scalper or stubhub or something like that. What is the scalping process like at Verizon? Easy to get?

Any thoughts are appreciated.

Some good info about tickets for this game in FLHoya's post here.

Try the ticket forum here: hoyatalk2.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=tickets

It does not take much of a donation to join the Hoya Hoop Club and qualify for donor status to get access to tickets. The minimum gift is $25. If you are that much of a Hoya fan it would seem to be a no brainer. Certainly less than paying a scalper.

You can find info on Duke ticket sales here:

Unfortunately for you I think the presale has ended, but it doesn't hurt to give the ticket office a call.

i just got this email re: duke game:

alumni.georgetown.edu/default.aspx?Page=EVNTEventDetail&EventID=1809

looks like you can buy directly from the alumni association for $45. It doesn't say where you will be seating though.

I'd say it's a likelihood that they're 400 level tix.

scalpers are EVERYWHERE at verizon. but they will charge 3 or 4 times the face value for the duke game.

Ugghh. Those alumni tickets sold out fast and now I'm on the waiting list. If anyone has extra tickets that they would like to sell to a recent alum coming down from NYC, please let me know (hey, it's worth a shot)

One thing I was confused about...I went through the policies on this link Dan provided: guhoyas.cstv.com/tickets/m-baskbl-home-away-tix-09-10.html and had a group of 7 alums.

We only got 4 tickets in the 400s, but had we gone through that winter weekend link it seems as though we could have gotten for everyone and all sat together. Anyone else have this problem?

Did the group of tickets for young alums really sell out that fast? Seems strange that they were offering groupings of up to 30 tickets and it sold out in a couple hours (from the time of the email til when my friends first started mentioning the waitlist). Did the link go live earlier and they just not tell anyone?

lets go hoyas buy ALL THE TIX so all hoya grey and NO DUKE BLUE AT ALL lets give payback for all our great seats at camaroon indoor stadium go hoyas beat odu and then keep winning till the dukies come to visit SELL OUT THE PHONE BOOTH YUP SELL IT OUT FREEZE THEM OUT

Speaking of Duke, thank god for the Worldwide Leader's coverage of Tobacco Road. What would I do if I couldn't see Duke play 3-4 Big South powerhouse Gardner-Webb on national TV in primetime?

Alternatively, you could try and see if there any of the Amtrak 5-game weekend packages left. 5 games (UConn, 'Nova, ND, Duke and Cincy) for $125 total. The 'Nova, UConn and ND games should at least net face on here or elsewhere, so you'd really only be eating the cost of the Cincy game, but you'd have tickets.
