I realize it's a TBD game because of TV, but can you give any indication of what time the game might play? Are they waiting to make it a night game, morning game, mid-afternoon?

Any educated guess or informed speculation you can provide would be helpful. Trying to book a flight before the prices go up, I can get there for a C-Note on Southwest as it currently stands, but last flight back to Dallas leaves at 8pm, want to know if it is even possible to make that.

no change fees on SWA, can't you book it and then change it later?

I hope it is a 2:30 game as I am not sure we will have the lights repositioned and it will interfere with our receivers if this is a night game.

I thought about that, but I really want to get out and back same day. If the game is later I have to get a hotel which sucks. I might go ahead and buy it and use the credit if I have to, but I really don't want to stay the night.

No change fees but higher prices due to being less than 2 weeks out will apply.

As was referenced above, it'll be 12 days out. I wish I had better news, but with improved play and increased TV interest come these issues... Sorry.

Last year the game took about 8 hours.
