Re: Tourney tickets

Re: State Tourney Tickets

The service fees--I get it, everybody gets their cut. A $93 ticket carries a $27 service charge on a $17.50 face value ticket. I want to know who made the money on the tickets sold through Vivid seats (there were no tickets on Ticketmaster or Stub hub...only Vivid). The Xcel center holds 17,000 peop...

State Tourney Tickets

Question for members more knowledgeable than I (which is everyone on this bored). Most years I attend the tourney by finding tickets out front or in bars along W7th. This year's AA tourney had a team I wanted to see so I went online to buy tickets ahead of time. I was eventually directed to Vividsea...

Man, you are defensive. I noticed you slipped in the losses that Holy Family has to justify their ranking again. I also don't think Holy Family is so much better than Prior Lake that you can conclude that the Fire should win that game. What do you mean by "slipped in the losses"? HF's ran...

Because the Refs let North play like a Junior team this year--my observation from seeing a couple of regular season games. Also, in general we don't see double minors or majors in the state tourney--remeber the tourney the year Jablonski got hurt--they let a ton of contact go without penalties.

While this is an enjoyable argument, the group of Minnesota kids that are selected at 15s, 16s and 17s do not play together as a team. They are split up at the camp in NY. The teams at the camp play with 10F, 6D and 2G. At 15s, there are 12 teams (x18 per team = 216 kids in camp). The numbers are ge...

For those debating the origin of this game devolving into a joke, it lies squarely on LN. Coming into the third period, LN had 4+ minutes left on the 5 minute penalty Tyler Nanne took at the end of the second. LN did absolutely nothing on this power play and I saw a distinct change in attitude at t...

Sometimes, leaving for greener pastures isn't always the best idea. How many Stillwater kids on HM feel the same way (or worse)? Flipside is Jack Jenson at Eagan--leaves perennial A tourney champ STA for AA Eagan, and leads team in scoring and is the difference maker in a AA Section final...vs STA!
