Ordered 3 tix in section 8A for Mike (Freak), Joyce and myself via Ticketmaster...hadn't done ticketmaster in YEARS and it's still the pain in the behind that it was the last time I tried. Anyway, FYI, the tickets cost a grand total of $63.05 for the 3.... Since the "real price" was $17, I'm using my brilliant math mind to say that T-master is charging $4.00 per ticket, PLUS .05 for who the heck knows what else!
BTW, OSU's office wouldn't sell me the tix, just referred to t-master.

Same for me as well. I called OSU ticket office and I was told I had to use ticket master unless I was willing to come to the campus ticket office. Looks like the ticket office only wants to sell tickets to its own fans. What a bunch of goons. Should expect no less. By using ticket master it puts people in a general seat unless you specify the section. I am thinking they do this on purpose to spread everyone around the arena. But I am sure they will put all the buckeye fans in the prime seats if you go to the ticket office and purchase tickets. Regardless I got my 5 tickets.

We talked to the OSU ticket office yesterday to get the all session ticket. They were fine with doing that. I guess that changed today when single session tickets went on sale. I talked to someone who has season tickets for the OSU women and he said they could order tickets as part of their seaon ticket package last September.
Part of the problem is that the OHSAA girls high school state championships are being held at the Schott this weekend. Not an excuse to be rude but they are probably busy.
They are probably more worried about selling all their tickets for their men's team. That team is still more important.
Oh well, everyone get your tickets. Wear ORANGE!! Be loud and proud.

If you actually call ticketmaster instead of doing it online, you wont be charged the $4 per ticket. As long as you use will call. Ordered mine today, 2 adult and 1 student ticket was $49. It was still a pain in the butt tho.....ticketmaster sux

The extra fee is charged no matter how you order tickets. We spoke with the OSU ticket office staff on Tuesday. There are 3 all session tixs waiting for us at will call....$93.50 later( I think). They expect a loooooooooooong line. BG ticket office personnel will be working. Hope this speeds it up.

All I know is the lady was reading me my options for delivery and she said "....or will call at no additional charge". Interesting.

Ticketmaster is a royal pain in the azz...I hate that outfit. It's about as close to a monopoly as you can get.

If you want to avoid standing in line for will call...I called back and asked if I could change my order to pick them up at a local ticketmaster outlet. For $3 per ticket, I am now picking mine up at a Kroger store near me. Just have your original order number when you call.

Offer to barter with them with some used BCS bowl game memorabilia.
