We were never in the big east basketball tournament which is held annually in Madison square garden.
You're right, I was confused because it was the one year Louisville was in AAC with us....whatever, we had our arses handed to us.

RE: Ticket Sales Birmingham Bowl
The ticket office promoted me from Sec 7 on the 5-yard line to Sec 12 on the 40-yard line by simply returning my original 'early bird' order.
They accidentally sent me a duplicate set a week later. So, I called in and asked if I could keep the newer and better tickets.
Doesn't seem fair how they went about seating. There obviously was no thought given to better or worse perspectives at Legion Field.

I'm no Ambassador by any stretch... but I am a 2nd Gen Tiger fan and me and my family have had season FB tix since the mid 50's and had basketball season tickets many times thru the years, don't have them now for obvious reasons.. I had to be one of the earliest to purchase my bowl tickets from UofM and my seats are amongst the worse in our section in corner of endzone. I understand how our system works, but next time I will buy good 50 yardline seats from the Bowl website for the same price. Someone else can do their good deed and buy those endzone seats. Sorry, I know that will disappoint some of you.
Yep! Couldn't agree more. This team sucks! Until they start winning again, I won't ever attend another game.
It was sarcasm. See that ^^^ "until they start winning"?
Josh is the winningest coach in Tiger history. I've had tickets since 1999. Both sports.

So, on to football! GOTIGERSGO!
And very quietly, but no less obviously, you used a football thread to take yet another shot.
Sneaky though, so...congratulations.
Honestly, there was no malice meant. It was an explanation of my actions and feelings, not a shot at Josh. I am very sad about the Josh situation. If I put it in the wrong thread, I take the blame. Sincerely sorry.
I can be sneaky, but this wasn't one of those times.

RE: Ticket Sales Birmingham Bowl
Never understood this personally. I bought mine through the University this time but why do the tickets through the University always suck? I could of done a lot better and cheaper if I would of waited but wanted to do my part and support the UofM.

What has he really won? Certainly not the hearts of the thousands of fans who have chosen not to renew their tickets or attend the games.

But they immediately do once they are hired and you will stay with them for better or worse until the bitter end.

This Continues to worry me, I won't be able to get my tickets until I get to the game tomorrow, and they are likely to be incredibly bad.

You were slotted tickets by how early or late that you ordered them. If you were an early order then you are likely in Sec. 7 or 8, from what I can tell. If you ordered in the second week or later, you will probably get much better seats, like in Sec. 12 or 13.
