I know you want Kirby news. This was a press release so it was easier to write. That's coming after I get situation.
Thanks for the link! I'm a student and didn't know Athletics had reopened ticket sales.
If UGA had not put basketball tickets on student ID cards, the chaos that happened outside Stegeman before the Tech game would never have even happened. It makes sense to do it for football, but when you're only drawing a few thousand students for b-ball games, why put them on the cards (which takes at least twice as long) when you could simply hand out paper tickets?
Hey, I'm ready for Ole Miss. I'm wearing my blue and red sweater on Wednesday at work, just so to jinx them.
Hoop Dawgs! I can't wait until Wednesday; it'll be nice to see some action to take Kirby off our minds.
And not that I want to disregard the Lady Hoop Dawgs - damn, they're killing 'em lately.
Go Dawgs, come Wednesday. . .
Well then Katie, as a "student", you should have checked your UGA Mail because I've gotten 3 emails about this today.
Rick: I did check my UGAMail, and I didn't get anything. I hadn't registered in the ticket system previously, I'm in the marching band and any tickets that required my ID I had bought previously with cash and had them loaded at the door. I had no reason to be in the system before now. (I have a profile on here, you can check it if you don't believe me. :] )
I'm glad they opened sales up again, I forgot to prebuy my Gym Dogs tickets. Fixed that really fast.
