thunderdan Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Just checking in on who’s traveling to Chicago next week. My crew and I will be in 204, Row B (likely in my Thames jersey ). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fraz Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Section 204 as well. Anyone familiar with a good pregame bar? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Littlebill Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 I sold my tickets unfortunately. I still have two if anyone wants some extra!! (Update - sorry they're gone) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adman Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 I'll be there with a group of 8. In terms of pregame bar, the official Billiken Fan Reception is on campus at McCormick Lounge in Coffey Hall, a 5-minute walk from the arena. Here's the link: https://alumni.slu.edu/s/1264/17/interior.aspx?sid=1264&gid=1&pgid=7838&cid=12540&ecid=12540&crid=0&calpgid=413&calcid=8723 I just checked and it looks like it's sold out. But you might check with the contacts listed to see if they allow a cash bar or have extra pre-game tickets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I care so much I am altering my plans to no longer go to the game. Just kidding, have fun and be safe out there! billikenfan05, DirtyRican and Littlebill like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUBillsFan Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 I'd assume Dr. Chaifetz will be there since he's from Chicago. Cue GIF of Chaifetz throat slash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billikenbooster Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 I bought game tickets and the reception through the Billiken website. They confirmed, took my $$. I’ve yet to have any communication regarding the reception or the tickets. anyone else having similar difficulties? MHG. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck to you, don’t check any bags. Hopefully you’ll be back in under a week, but with Southwest doing the flying, who knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taj79 Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 @Billikenbooster --- I did same for DC. Got confirmation email. Then just showed up at bar (Tonic). Mo and Eric took it from there with name tag, drink tickets, etc. Since I already had my tickets, didn't need those. I assume those would have been handed to me at the check in table along with drink tickets. Just go to the reception ---- all should be well from there. This has been the standard for games at Dayton, Geedubya, Fordham/MSG, La Salle, Mason and other road venues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taj79 Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 I have adopted the position to avoid the GDT thread until the game is over. I only read it when all is said and done. Especially if we win. Less angst, which leads to more sedate viewing. My entire focus right now is on securing a top four seed. A win tonight and a loss by Duquesne (-1) at Bonaventure and we have a two game lead over the #5 Dukes. Plus we have the tiebreaker against the next three teams in Mason, Geedubya and Bonaventure. cgeldmacher and The Valley Sucks like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taj79 Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 @Littlebill--- a win is a must if we are to reach our conference goal. On the optimistic side, getting to 5 and 1 is a realistic goal, as is getting to 10 and 1 providing we win at Davidson and handle VU at Chaifetz. But one game at a time.
