2025 NCAA tickets

Here is my take on the NCAA ticket scarcity. I have been going to this tournament faithfully since about 1980 and I attended several after I graduated from OK State in 1964 before parenting took over for a few years in the late 60's and 70's. Until last year I never had any trouble ordering tx from OK State although in some years I got better seating getting them from an acquaintance. Last year I did not have enough posse points to get tx although I was at least on the list. I relied on a big donor for tx last year who I really did not know well but friends and relatives did. I appreciated him but with the scarcity of tickets this year I do not think I will be able to find them. I do not resent the big donors getting the tickets as without them our program will not grow the way we all want it to. I did go to the last tournament in Philly and really enjoyed it and it was one of my favorite in the approximately 50 I have attended. I am resigned to not going this year
although I do have rooms reserved. I can cancel them and I have not yet scheduled plane tickets and will not unless I can get tickets. At my age travel is not really my friend so in some ways I am relieved but I am sad that I and a lot of faithful fans do not have the opportunity to attend. I will be watching all I can on Flo or ESPN . This is not a plea for tickets but I would still attend if tickets dropped in my lap. In the meantime,
LETS GO POKES!!!.
Turns out that had several ways to get tickets this year but in the end I have decided not to go. I have been to Philly when it was there and thoroughly enjoyed it but just could not justify the cost both in dollars and also the distance which at my age is a cost to the body. For the first time since 1980 KC Scott will be going without his wingman (me). He does have an extra ticket(mine) and I can put you in touch with him if he has not sold it already.
