Probably just wants more government money… so starting to push the agenda.

I'm all for keeping people safe from the effects of COVID. Get a vaccine, and we won't have to worry about any of this.

I just think it's dumb to worry about canceling a game in 2021 when we just got through 2020 with much less knowledge about the virus than we have today.

Huh? 2020 season went on during worse conditions.

One difference last year was that we had a peak in July but then cases/hospitalizations/deaths started dropping as the season began. Cases started ramping up again in October/November but by then the season was underway.

Currently cases and hospitalizations are shooting up, but who knows how long that lasts. Also those effects are a lot more regional based on amount of vaccination within a region. Of course the areas that would be at most risk for shutting down are the areas that also would have the most resistance to it.

The games themselves will happen either way though. Fans would be the only thing up in the air. At this point I think we will still have fans, but if things don't hit a peak soon that could run into issues

There are around 130 tickets left on the UNLV website ranging between $165 to $522 each. They have to open up more availability soon don't they?

You’d think. I know a ton of ppl without tickets.
I'm countering my own question about them needing to open up more tickets here but is everyone without tickets waiting for cheaper options to open up in 300 levels of the stadium?

I wouldn’t say that. A lot of people I know are waiting for the season to start to obtain tickets that are currently being held as season tickets.

1.) Ticketmaster is not responsible for these tickets. Paciolan is.
2.) They have the ability to ******* print out the ticket. The bar code isn't changing. Taking a screenshot of a PDF is the exact same as printing it out. Why would one work without the other.
3.) You can scan the QR code yourself and see its literally just the 14 digit ticket number.
4.) They have the NFC proximity ability for Apple wallet or Google Pay only. And guess what if you have an NFC reader all its sending is that same damn 14 digit code. If you go to the settings you can see the same damn bar code in Apple wallet and Google Pay.
5.) We're not talking about tickets bought from a 3rd party, we bought them from UNLV and need to pass them around to the group we bought them for.

I do trust you know your stuff on this but I will say the UNLV ticket rep and the mobile ticket instructions that she sent me both say they don’t “recommend” screenshots in order to “insure validation and avoid issues at the gate.”

The tickets I received have a PDF download option. I’m not sure what the difference would be. So that’s confusing on their end.

I'm guessing they have no idea because they haven't had a game with fans yet besides the ones with family

Honestly more concerned there will even be a game at this point.
MLB is playing right now, see very few masks at the game full capacity, the NFL started pre season games last week, again few if any masks full capacity.
These teams and schools will not be able to handle another year without allowing full attendence in the stands. We might be in masks, but we will be playing in Vegas on Sept. 18th and the fans that purchased tickets will be in the stands.

The game is 5 weeks away, and UNLV is going to bleed us dry for every dollar they can from ISU. To them this is their Christmas, a chance to make a killing, and I have seen nothing in their actions to point otherwise. I am glad we already have our tickets.
