Title: Mental Note: Don't use ticketmaster to buy MU tickets
Post by: mu_hilltopper on November 05, 2009, 04:28:23 PM
So every year, I order tickets for friends through the Season Ticketholder pre-sale. 

I dutifully went on Ticketmaster.com at the time my "points" allowed, and tried to buy tickets to 6 games.

3 games, Ticketmaster gave me upper corners in Rows N, T, and R.  Not great, not terrible, so I took them.

3 games, Ticketmaster gave me row X-Y-Z in the corners.  Screw that.  >:(

I finally got around to calling MU's ticket booth to buy those last 3 games.

End result over the phone?  Row E, Row F, Row E.  Far, far better.  Unbelievable.

So the moral of the story is .. if you want to go to a MU game, call the ticket office.

(They did say that Ticketmaster was rolling out a new system in the next few months that would allow you to pick your seat graphically .. so maybe they won't suck as bad in 2010.)

what games were those? it appears we are approaching some sell outs already, pretty impressive given the supposed down season

That's what happens when you have a monopoly on the process.

Nah, I always use ticketmaster to buy my tickets and never had a problem. (http://rewardslink.info/flash/images/21.gif):)
