It was our AD that sent us the code he received from IHSAA. Maybe check his junk folder in his email. WooHoorunner 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clint Gard Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 To use the school codes for coaches and an alternate, I had to use 2 different ticketmaster accounts AND a different CC. My only gripe would be letting parents and schools get all session tickets instead of session one only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My only gripe is that it seems like the event planners put more thought into activities and events outside of watching the actual wrestling than they did in thinking about how to make sure those that are their to watch their kids wrestle have a smooth process for doing so.

Do you think the "fun" event portion is ran by the same people who decided 2 tickets per wrestler was the best idea? I think the Evansville Sports Corporation came up with all of the events/shuttles outside of the actual wrestling. I have no clue. Just wondering if anyone has any insight.

I would imagine that's the case...was mainly griping and using sarcastic humor to self-soothe...it was only mildly effective. awill0352 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lanntp01 Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 What a flop by the IHSAA… “all session”, “session 2”, and “session 3” events not open for parents to buy seats like Ticketmaster said they would be. So now parents have to wait and compete in general public sale Wednesday in order to watch their kid wrestle on Saturday? This doesn’t seem like a difficult thing to get right, but then I remember we are dealing with the IHSAA casualwrestlingfan, ZZ TOP and Silence Dogood 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silence Dogood Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 So this means there are 2 options of how this will play out... 1. The general public can swoop in and buy these seats for sessions 2 and 3 on Wednesday 2. Half of the parents (those that won on Friday) will be able to buy the same seats for sessions 2 and 3 on Saturday and the other half will not be able to. Those tickets will then go back for sale to the general public late Friday. The 2nd group of parents will then have to battle for those remaining tickets with stragglers who are buying session 2 and 3 tickets late Friday? Just let the parents who want to buy all sessions buy them now. infowrestling 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indygirl Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 anyone know attendance for last years finals. Ford Center has capacity of 11,000. I would be curious to know how close to the attendance for '23 vs capacity. Could we not have pushed a week to keep it at Gainbridge given the All Star game? What a mess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As if having a kid wrestle at state isn't stressful enough, losing parents will be double punished and might not have a spot in The Ford Center on Saturday to watch.

Pretty much we are pushed to go purchase all session passes Wednesday for our other kids and significant others if divorced and some for us just in case. Which then lowers the amount of attendance that can actually come as we will be on there fast purchasing those tickets. It was not thought through in the slightest. It would have just been easier to let us purchase all session passes as we will be there so would stay and watch the whole weekend.
