Just out of curiosity....

If you had the money to throw at it...how could one obtain a couple seats for a game on the floor ?
Its one of my sports bucketlist items id like to cross off.
Thanks.
 
According to the last time I saw information from ISU on this (website, mailings etc), the cost for a court-side seat for MBB is $2,500/season ticket, with minimum of 2 seat purchase required and a minimum $5,000 donation. In summary, $10,000/year.
 
Maybe a better question would be, is it possible to get them 2nd hand? Will the admin let a 2nd hand buyer down courtside?

And a 3-year commitment. I was under the impression that, at this point, one needed to be a Director level donor ($12.5k) for the MBB seats, but I can't find anything to confirm.

Perhaps @Knownothing could speak to whether or not it would even be possible to purchase tickets for a single game.
 
For last year's holiday tournament in Florida, I sat on the floor. And I never understood just how cool it was to sit courtside.

The reason I mention it is because it might be an easier and cheaper option to try for it at something like a holiday tourney. Plus, you get a vacation out of the deal.
 
There are a pair of tickets in the Arena Circle Row 1 for the ISU v. Texas game on StubHub for $395 ea. plus fees if that helps.

Years ago they used to have some scrimmages in Hilton that where basically pick up games between the players that were open to the public. No coaches so it could be done before practice started. I went once and sat front row. Yes it is cool sitting courtside. Caught a ball out of bounds and tossed it back to Grayer.
Preemptive - Cool story brah.

I believe those are not court-side seats, simply first row of standard season. Due to court-side restrictions I would be surprised if they were offered on Stub-Hub.
 
I bought front row behind the basket, not really court side, for the Vanderbilt game through Stub Hub. For a game in Hilton I think it would be tough to get court side, but you might be able to buy them through a ticket broker for a game like Kansas.

So Texas pair would be $1000-$1500?
