Let's keep it real. While it rubbed me wrong at the time, we should not blame the University.

Being able to sell and distribute tickets via Ticketmaster is a valuable relationship for our program.

However, Ticketmaster needs to make sure SMU fans/ticket holders can use their TicketExchange program which doesn't appear to be available for us to use right now.

Bottom line, the University is doing a great job, and we should all be thankful for all they are doing to bring quality sports programs to SMU/Dallas.

As a side note:
For anyone out their buying a PSL for Cowboys, get ready. While it is not announced, they are setting it up so anytime you want to sell your tickets it has to go through their site, and they will take a %.

You might be right. I think he was on the grounds at Reunion Arena when he was cited. (Not positive - it's been a few years....)

Thank you.


Ticketmaster is evil. I don't not want to get PF.com into trouble, but I do not play well with Ticketmaster. They suck.


LiveNation is just as bad

please help me, i really want to understand this. i tend to think that if i buy a ticket to a game or a play or a concert, its mine and i can sell it if i can't go. who are the "right hands?

Me thinks Obama and Mitchell have a lot in common. Neither has any experience, the system is very complex and the results will be much the same. Maybe we should consider Red Shirting Obama till the next election.

B+. Nice work.

Although now that I think of it he'd probably rather be blue-shirted.

That way everythig will be perfect.


if obama wins i think he said that every team gets to go to a bowl game and every team gets to be #1 in the rankings. that way everyone's equal and no one's feelings are hurt. I can't wait!


nice
It tastes better when served from a Bowl (game)!

Under Obama, NCAA teams will be required to "spread the wealth around," meaning that the top 100 recruits in the nation will be required to go to the 20 worst programs in the country. Sounds great!

Correction. The top 100 in the nation will be required to go to 20 schools that DON'T HAVE A PROGRAM.
