Question on the Student Section and Tickets

[RU848789]

So, we have 6 of us who share 4 tix, so I don't have tix to every game and I want to go to the Illinois game on Saturday. In most years before we upgraded our tickets, I used to have tickets to every game, but would usually sit in the student section at least once a season, just for old times sake. We rarely sold out, so it was never an issue, as nobody would even ask me for a ticket if I wanted to sit in a less than half full student section.

My question is, now that the games are sellouts, would I have to have an actual student ticket to get into the student section? Thought it would be fun to watch a game with the crazies, but wasn't sure if I had to have a student ticket. Also, if I'm scalping, any idea what the student tickets are going for these days? Thanks...

Yes on sold out games they check student tickets even if you look like a student

#’s most definitely does not look like a student (edited for auto correct gone crazy)

I got a ticket for you. Not in the student section but a good seat.

That would be awesome, thanks! Let me know how much $$ and how to get in touch.

Think one has to be premium to IM. Let's ask @DJ Spanky if he can help. I think a mod can start a conversation with anyone, but not 100% sure on that.

Not true just head to the top right of the site, clock your profile picture and you’ll see a message icon.

Click that and click new message.

Don't see any message icon after clicking on my profile picture and if I select "conversations" from the dropdown menu, I'm able to read previous ones, but not start any. @DJ Spanky started a conversation with both of us, so we're good, but in the conversation he said conversations can only be started by premium subscribers (he said it was a feature aimed at getting people to join premium - to me it's a feature aimed at annoying people who might be interested in premium).

Agreed- Same issue- can see messages but can not initiate them unless premium.
