Has anyone else signed up through ticketmaster to be put into the drawing for a chance to buy tickets to next year's tournament?

My questions include:

1. Do you just get a ticket to one game or all of the 1st/2nd round games for $237 a ticket?

2. What if they do expand to 96 teams at the end of April. Won't that mess up the tournament dates/locations/etc.?

I am guessing the $237 will be for 6 games and if the toruney expands to 96 teams I am guessing the play in round will be held at quicken loans so there would be a total of 10 games

Just got an email confirming that I was selected last week and went ahead and got 4 tickets to the entire session. Anyone else get tickets?

Hopefully I'll have media access and won't need to buy the tickets.

I hated having media access to games. It was nice and fun, but damn if I cant cheer and yell at the other team all game!

I especially hated having to broadcast a game and not be able to talk bad about player who were sucking dick for the Hoosiers etc.

I did use my credentials to get into games and then just go to the student section, lol.

Pretty sure I got 8 tickets.

I had an option to buy before they went on sale to the public, so it never mentioned any type of drawing, so I'm going with the assumption that I will receive all 8.

Do you really need to enter a drawing to get tickets? Based on the crowds this past March I would have thought you could buy tickets at the door.

Maybe you can, I have no idea. I know that me and a buddy both entered the lottery and only one of us were selected. Maybe they sellout of the general admission tickets but the teams involve don't sell their allotment? Also thought it depended where the games were played, some venues appeared better attended than others.

^^^^^

Tickets will be available on TicketMaster, just have to keep a close eye on when they are released to the geenral public to get decent seats.
