So Bison fans on their forum are complaining that UM is going to charge $70 for tickets. I kinda find that hard to believe to be true. Does anyone on here know how much tickets are going to be? I'd figure that UM would charge the same amount to NDSU fans for tickets that they charge UM fans.

Someone posted the link to the $70 ticket price (fees included) for NDSU fans. http://www.gobison.com/news/2015/6/10/FB_0610152308.aspx

I might not be aware, but I didn't think we charged more for tickets for visiting fans. Anyone have any idea on how much tickets for Griz fans will be?
Tickets are going to be griz cat price. Prob about 60ish a ticket total. However getting them is going to to intersting. From talking with the box office and ath. Dept i would be expecting 2k-3 tickets avalible most all on the south end. Ndsu will have a block of south endzone tickets and 20yd tickets. Right now they are expecting it to sell out in under 30 mins and they referenced the Paul. M online sale what to expect online that day. They educated me to buy the first set i get online because there may not be a chance you get to try for different seats. They are planning on bringing all temp. Bleachers they can which will add 300-500 actual seats and were looking if it was possible to sell SRO tickets but didnt think they could get fire coding to allow it.
 
The price doesn't seem out of line, especially since it includes fees. Wasn't the face value for tickets to home coming and the Cat game about $60.00 last year?

Yeah it really doesn't seem that out of line. There are NDSU fans thinking that the price is a ripoff. Well if they're truly upset at the cost of getting a ticket for this game, then they can just stay home and watch it on TV. :thumb:

I grew up in the Midwest (east of Fargo). From Green Bay to Bismarck, those tight screws would drive two towns over to save 6 cents on a 12-pack of toilet paper . They don't squawk when automakers raise car prices $2500 but will brow beat the butcher when hamburger goes up 3 cents a pound. Their favorite beer is called "whatever's on sale." In high school (drinking age was 18) you paid 85 cents deposit for a case of bottled beer and you'd get your a** kicked if you broke one and cost the deposit.

$70 is a week's supply of cheddar brats and pork rinds for Pete's sake, so go easy on 'em.
 
Side question for this game. I have noticed that the NW area of the country is in above average forest fire potential. I really hope it's not a smoke field game. People in the missoula area; below average snow fall winter?
 
I have heard that ESPN Gameplan is coming to this game as well. Where do you think they will setup? Does anyone KNOW?

Hardly any snow in town this year, a little better in the mountains.Reminds me a lot of 2000.

Is there any option for additional temporary seating?

westnodak, they're looking at bringing in 300-500 temporary bleachers, and then potentially selling even more SRO tickets. This one will push the 27,000 attendance mark.

Given the girth & lethargy of the UNDSU's fans, the vast majority would parish, either sitting or standing, if a small to moderate conflagration were to break out. I say they relax the fire codes for this game. Of course we do have a resident expert on the subject. Perhaps he will weigh in?

UNDSU fans, that last part wasn't a fat joke!
 
Unless there's a dramatic shift, forecasters are predicting a pretty ugly fire season for Western Montana, as well as much of Idaho and Washington and Oregon. The Pacific NW, Northern Cascades is supposed to experience one of the hottest summer's in its history this year. That doesn't bode well for fire season. I'm already planning on the air quality being very poor for the NDSU game and perhaps several more after that.

I doubt if much smoke will keep most of GRIZ NATION from this game.

I understand city officials are requiring hearing protection for those using the walking bridge on game day. There will only be 4 UNDSU fans aloud on the bridge at one time. Expect delays and plan accordingly.

God "aloud" you to have a good football team, as penance for having to live in the biggest sewer-hole in North America..... Fargo.
