Spectator attendance

Post by raidergrad72 »

I was going to go to Greenway-Silver Bay game at Silver Bay so I called the school & arena at Silver Bay to get ticket info. Talked to the arena mgr. & he said according to MSHL rules, you have to know someone on the team as the team members pick 6 names & from that list 2 people are chosen to attend the event + parents. Their names are on a piece of paper when you arrive at the arena.

So... looks like we ( wife & I) won't be attending games this year unless I can work something out with people I know at Greenway. [-o< [-o<

Also, a word to the wise especially this year. Hockey Hub has this game scheduled for 7pm Sat. I checked the arena schedule & the game's at 1pm. I sure would've been unhappy to drive from Eagan to Silver Bay only to arrive about 2 hours after the game is done. I've found Hockey Hub is not always reliable in a couple of other instances.
Also this year schedules are changing quite often.
Good luck!

That would be brutal. Most anyone can hope for is that all these sites are a best-efforts list. That hub is supposed to be official, but if it doesn't get changed when a last minute switch is made that would explain your instances. Smart of you to verify!

Would be helpful for rule understanding if people could post any individual Team/Arenas deviating from two tickets per parent rule plus arena people and media and scouts . Generally No sales at the door

For example last night, I had heard prior lake allowed five tickets per home team parent and two for away team parents. I assume that means they cleared out the parents from the JV game, but not sure about that

So can people post any exceptions they may hear

Westie,

Here's a report I shared with someone I know from another state.

Ticketing system for Lake Conference schools (not sure beyond that) is allowing two tickets per player for both home and visiting team. Figure that is up to 80 sold out of 150 cap. Other people are being given access to the site to buy theirs. No walk-up.

Building cleared after JV game, only then are Varsity tickets honored. Venue I saw was VERY militant in enforcing. Even to the point of making 4 HS age girls (so some tix apparently were made available to students) sit 6' from each other.
Be kind. Rewind.

Anyone know what Wisc schools are doing? Mahtomedi has a game in Hudson this Sat. Hudson is supposed to be very good. Would love to catch it if fans can get in.

Hockey purist, Only Wis. school I've seen is Superior getting their rear end handed to them 8-1 by, you guessed it, Hermantown & Duluth East beating them tonight 5-0.

Guessing this doesn't help him asking what Wisconsin teams are doing for spectators on the thread you started for the subject!

I don't know what Wis. schools are doing for covid-19. They'll have to call the arenas that host their teams or the schools like I did.

From the Hudson video stream website:
https://bigriversconference.org/public/ ... /school/7/

“Four home spectators allowed per participant and coach to this event. Two visiting spectators allowed per participant and coach to this event.”

So basically no dice on outsiders attending.
