Alright, I'm kind of curious who is planning on attending our game in Muncie on September 10th. I know I'm going and I have a group of about 8-15 who are planning on making the trip to Muncie. The reason I ask this is because I saw that BSU has some ticket plans for groups of 25 or more and I may consider purchasing a block of 25 or more if people are interested. It might be a nice way to get a good deal on tickets and to get a group of us AZZers to sit together. Those of you who will be making the trip, let me know what you think. Here's the breakdown,
General Admission: 25 or more people $5.00 per person
Individual General Admission : $10.00

UK: Shouldn't you be buying them from the BG ticket office?

You know, I thought about that when I posted. But I couldn't remember if ticket proceeds worked the same way for MAC games as they do for OOC and Bowl games. I still don't know for sure, does anyone know for sure about how MAC game proceeds work? Either way, I still may consider buying through BSU, if BG doesn't or can't extend a similar deal with their ticket allotment. Plus, my sister-in-law goes to Ball State, so I guess I could support BSU this one time.

I have an annual golf outing that morning and then Sunday is my youngest son's birthday. The odds are long, but if/when we beat Wisconsin, I think I will be too pumped to wait until October to see a game so I will make a trip to Muncie work some how. 8)

I ordered two tickets for the Ball State game along with my Wisconsin tickets when I ordered my BG season tickets. I wanted to make sure I was sitting with the BG fans. I'll either be going with my fiancee or my dad.
FYI, the visitor section at Ball State this year will be section G, I called their ticket office the other day to ask that question. Not a great section, but not bad, they are at the end of the main grandstand and I believe the visitor's bench will be on that side. Here's a link to the Ball State Stadium seating chart:

I saw that, so that's another reason I thought it might be nice to plop 25 or more AZZers in some decent seats like section T.

The BG ticket order form had single game tickets for Ball State listed at $15.00 each (I think because they are reserved seats). The $10.00 ones are likely in general admisssion, which I am guessing might be mixed in with some student that slide down from their section. But whatever the case, I ordered two and will be going and I hope we can bring a huge following of BG fans!!!
Also, for those interested in hotels, I reserved a room at the Best Western which I was told is the closest to the stadium (across the street) and you can easily walk to the stadium from there. I got a room for $68.00. I believe the Days Inn is not too far away either.

UK didn't mention that groups of 25 or more can get reserved tickets for 8$ instead of 15$.

Well, I can tell you that the entire Falcon Marching Band will be present and accounted for at the Balls Tate game. It'll be oh so thrilling to see that place again

Me and my girlfriend are in for sure.
Two others could potentially join us.
UK- add us to your count and see if it works out.
It is a 1pm kick off , right? I am planning on just getting up and driving over Saturday morning, what does it take 2 hours?
Before noon- that means beer of choice will be the Guinness.
