This gives me the same feeling as the emails that I get for groupon deals for restaurants and I'm not sure if the place will be open long enough to redeem the certificate. Not a great sign.

It's actually 150 before any taxes and fees to buy all sessions like this... Which is less than I paid for my all sessions.

It's just for returned corporate seats and seats behind the bucket they haven't sold the last few years anyway. Might as well get some extra bodies in the building if you can.

SIU was put in the rafters last year, if that happens again I won't buy through the University again. Who controls the seating?

I'm guessing you mean upper part of the lower level? The club area? That's where we were last year too and there's absolutely nothing wrong with those seats.

The league makes the decision based on who they think is going to make it to the weekend and put them on the side behind the benches so it looks good on TV.

Right. The club area seats are as high as you can go and those seats are great. Terrific sightlines and a whole platform you can stand or walk around on. I get all-sessions for those most years, especially since the lower-mid halfcourt seats are never sold publicly as they’re for corporate sponsors.

Perhaps he was sent to the top of a section adjacent to the club area.

Honestly, since the renovation I don't think there's a bad seat in the lower bowl but to each his own.

100% agreed.
