When does BC sell away game tix?

Postby DuchesneEast on Tue Sep 08, 2009 8:48 am

Does BC sell away game tickets from their allotment or should I just buy it from the home team and estimate the BC section. I want BC to get credit and sit with the cool kids but i want to get tix in advance too.

Thanks.

I cannot verify this, but I understand that BC has already returned its unsold tickets to Virginia Tech.

Do they ever advertise that tickets are for sale? I could be asleep and miss this, but I feel like I never knew they were available.

I just called the ticket office and the only away game they would not have been able to sell me was Notre Dame. They still have tickets available for all other away games. 617-552-4622

Always call the BC ticket office for away games. BC gets the credit and you usually sit near the players' families.

There's usually a lot of room to spread out in the BC section at away games. Nice perk.

This is a biggie - how many times do we hear that BC doesn't travel? A big part of that is that BC fans buy from ticket resellers rather than the athletic office so we're always returning tickets that could have been sold if people had called.

Thats exactly true, I was about to buy from the UVA website, but I would rather see BC sell the tix. Its the endzone or upstairs either way.

If Groh doesn't get fired by then, I'm sure you'll be able to sit wherever you want.

Pretty sure you'll be able to no matter who is coaching. A new coach isn't going to ratchet up the excitement there and it's not like they give a crap at UVA, either. Their student body is what the matinee crowd at BC strive to become.

It depends on when the visiting schools ask for unsold tickets back. Most schools want tickets back a week before the game. VT wants them back about 10 days to 2 weeks before the game.

Sadly no, the deep cutbacks on overtime at my company have left me without a travel budget this year.

(I can already see TRE worrying about me being unable to RV to a game.)
