Bear Down Wildcats

Looks like the upper deck will not be complete, so they are expecting 10,000 for the game. Only 3.5 months to go.

Well tickets just got that tough to get.

Who would pay for a practice anyways?

Hollis-Jefferson & Johnson together -- I'm tellin you now, get your tickets

will sell out even quicker now (probably in 48 hours). going to have to be on the ball reserving tickets.

Come on, put it on the football field

Yea, what happened to the football idea. They are off, the stadium will be empty. Can you imagine the buzz of 25K for a practice outdoors.

Maybe as it gets closer they will look at it again. Maybe they fear rain and will lock in the 10K if they have to move it to McKale. The rest could watch on the Vizeo at AZ stadium and they could charge them 5 a seat

What, no one's gonna propose moving it to Phoenix?

Tickets go on sale today

Already bought mine through work. BTFD!

They don't go on sale for 6 more minutes.

Nice to see you can have your tickets delivered to your smartphone.

Forgot to mention the 10am time, my bad.

Browser was being funny but I managed to grab 6 tickets. Can't wait!

Picked up 4 tickets. Should be fun.

Better get em quick

glad i didn't wait til this afternoon. picked up 3 tickets a little while ago.

Probably be sold out by noon

Down to 300 tickets

by 1130 at this rate. doesn't help that there are about 4600 less tickets that normal. only 10000 total since the entire east side of the arena will be blocked off because of the renovation. the NE and SE corners will be open but all the due east seats in the upper and lower levels and that part of the concourse will be inaccessible for the red/blue and exhibition game.

Yeah you're right, less than 100 right now lol Love our fans

Dammit, I just tried to buy tickets and they are gone.

10,000 seats in 90 minutes is crazy.

Whew, tried again and got thru. Only took 90 minutes to sell out.

hey glad you got some. they have to all be gone now.

wtf, I didn't even realize they went on sale today, and they're already gone now....

fuck you Wildcat fans for buying up all the tickets before I could get any!

Are there scalpers out at McKale for this?

I got the email about the tickets going on sale at 330 this afternoon....went to buy and it was already sold out, wtf.

Damn you fellow Wildcats!!!

Game should be free, and in Phoenix.

More specifically, at the Arcadia.

gumby's only half-joking, as the Red-Blue game was, in 1989-1990, indeed free and held at Brophy Prep in Phoenix.

Insane how fast the tickets are going now. If I could find someone who could split the cost and go to the Thursday games, I'd be all in on season tickets.

Gumby is not half-kidding.






















totally kidding

Was supposed to get some from a buddies work but they were denied the 50+ tickets they requested. Didn't find out until after they were gone.

Need 4-6 tickets if anyone knows of any

Got my tickets. This guy has 6 left as of last night:

YUUUUPPPPPPP! I love this set of shorts!

If they ever change that font I will flip my shit!

The gray shorts!

So Arizona is wearing gray at home now instead of white?

The football program could learn a lot from the basketball program regarding uniforms. Those are pretty sharp.

Although I am a traditionalist more than most regarding team colors, I really like those gray shorts.

They will be used as alternate home and road jersey. I thought I would dislike them but they are actually pretty sharp looking. I am not a fan of 2 sets of white homes. I wish they would've made the 2nd home jersey a throwback to the 80's. Then that would be the best set of Unis in the nation!

Do we know if we have any recruits making there visits in town for the Red/Blue game?

So it won't be shown live, in honor of showing some PAC FB games huh? My bet is that it would draw a higher rating than said FB games...

I was at an event this past week where Greg Byrne spoke about a variety of topics. One topic was television revenue and our impact on it.

He mentioned that the most viewed by all game in the conference was the AZ/UCLA game on ESPN which drew 1.35m viewers. 2 nights later UCLA playing at home against ASSU also on ESPN drew 121,000 viewers. A 90% drop.

He noted CU Likes to say that the buffs had the #2 and #3 most watched games (he showed their tweets about it) but what they failed to mention was that both games were against......Arizona.

He then rolled out the top 10 most viewed games and low and behold everyone had AZ playing. Man I wanted to pick up the phone and tell Larry Scott to link my sweaty hairy balls

meh. I might have to help my mother move that weekend. but it is still up in the air. if anyone is interested in tickets for the game let me know and I'll get back to you when I know for sure if they are available. 3 tickets total.

That's cool, but please: No link!

Yeah looking like I'll be driving a moving van to Dallas that weekend. Have 3 tickets to probably sell.

19 days until the Red/Blue game boys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Larry knows this. He knows when he's in Vegas too, the entire strip is literally covered in UA stuff.
