Section 207 and 208
there are still a ton of tickets at reasonable prices in section 207 and 208 which are the club seats on top of NIU sections 107 and 108. Face value is $215 and they are going in the $60 range. Be cool to make both of those Red as well so we don't get FSU fans sprinkled in! I will still buy some NIU nosebleeds for donation, but these are great corner seats! Just grabbed 4 in 208 on stubhub!

If I can find a way to afford the airfare that is where I want to sit.

HJ,

If airfare is an issue - and I certainly understand it with those obscenely expensive fares - have you considered Greyhound? I think I also heard that NIU was considering fan buses. It would be an arduous jorney, but certainly less expensive.

If someone has airline pts. try buying them at a reasonable rate of exchange.

HJ,

There is a double issue. The second is my 3 little ones.

My wife and I can realistically get away for the 1st and 2nd and get a few babysitters to cover. Any more time is not happening because our parents work and have taken all their allowed time off already helping us watch them while we moved. The money is the issue here.

Driving the whole family down to the OB is a possibility however this is only if I drive down to FL in 2 days (11hr a day), watch the game on the 3rd day and drive back up the 4 and 5 days. As we have experience from our trip to NY this summer this plane does not seem like it would be a good time for any of us.

The same issue is there with a bus. I don't want to subject other people to my two 2 and 3 year olds for 22-24 hours EACH WAY on a bus. Also my wife and I don't have the time to take the trip ourselves.

I read on here the corners were a bad seat...and judging by the seat viewer that someone provided that seems to confirm.

The 3d viewer made the corner club seats look better than endzone club seats.

The best view would be the first few rows in the 400 level ...that's my plan B.

We're in 208 already. I'm sure the 3D viewer doesn't do it justice. Those viewers always feel like they are so far away.

Alright WUK!!! I get to see you twice in one year after not seeing you in like 8 years! lol Can't wait! I fully expect to piss more than a few people off starting chants and cheering on 1st and 2nd down when the Huskies are on defense. 04-rock

To all the guys from the board in this and the surrounding 200 sections - we should say hello in that area/section. It's always nice to put faces to the names or to catch up especially for diehards like us.
