Tickets for Wisconsin

My dad brother in law and I will all be going to the Wisconsin game. I was looking up tickets and it took me to Ticketmaster. They list the tickets at 50$ a piece plus a 7 dollar fee for each. That is absurd.

Obviously it won't sell out, what will the tickets be the day of the game?

Thanks for any help.

Call the ticket office instead (I believe it's 877-BGSUTICKET, but you'll probably wanna double check the official site.) Shouldn't be any fees, unless they add S&H, but it definitely shouldn't be $7 a ticket that way.

I imagine they'll be the same $20-$30 range at the gate as they are now.

I just bought two tickets on ticketmaster this evening in section 338. It said they were the best available. I tried to buy a pair of $50 seats and all they showed were a pair in the Wisconsin section.

I'm going with my bro for free, he knows a guy with Browns seasons and I guess they gave every season ticketholder 2 free tickets to this game, my bro was lucky enough to get them...they're nosebleed but I'm sure we'll be able to sit lower. I'm assuming if the season ticketholders show up, it'll give a boost to the attendance. I believe these will also go as tickets sold for the game, so the officially attendance figure may be higher than actually there.

If you bought BOWLING GREEN season tickets, you received one free ticket to the Wisconsin game, for each season ticket you purchased.

Wow, I haven't heard anything about this before. I know about BG season ticket holders getting tickets, but is this true too about the Browns?

It's not a terrible idea. Maybe BG can pick up a few more fans from just getting to see them play. There are people out there who don't get to see BG because they're always watching UM or OSU. I like the idea, the more people in the seats the better the atmosphere should be.

I bought 6 - $30 seats from the BG tix office. Section 133 row 3 seats 5-10. $180 even, no service charge. I had the tickets in my hand as I walked out the door. If you can't get to the tix office, call them. I saved enough in service charges to pay for another ticket.
