NCAA Tickets for Des Moines

I don't think buying tickets though this sale that you are guaranteed tickets, at least that's the way I see it. Seems like you are just requesting them, similar to big 12 tourney tix.

My confirmation email says "Thank you for your purchase." and gives confirmation number. Seems like this is legit ticket purchase and not just the chance to buy tickets.
 
Ordered 2. Worst case you can always get the face value back out of them if you choose to follow the Clones around wherever they may land.
 
I hope some of you buying tickets now will be selling them off to Kansas fans and snagging seats in St. Louis to watch ISU next year instead
 
So not knowing where the seats are located during purchase. Does everyone assume that the $228 tickets are upper ends and the $270 tickets are upper sides with lower level seats being held for future sales and school allotments?
 
The email says they can't even guarantee that the seats will be next to each other. Safe to assume that's probably only a concern for larger ticket orders?
 
I hate not knowing where the seats are when you purchase.

You will have very nice seats for whichever zone you chose, as this pre-general public sales. I have done this before through other sites where I had an "in", and have always been pleased with my seats. That being said, enjoy seeing the Hawkeyes and / or the Jayhawks play! I'm following ISU to St.Louis or wherever they send the Cyclones since they cannot play in Des Moines in 2016.

Probably. Wells Fargo Arena has had enough large events to know how to make the process work. Who would ever buy tickets to WFA again if a pair was split up? It makes no sense to that to happen.

Unrelated funny story. Last year we booked a flight to Vegas with another couple - except at different times. When we ordered plane tickets online it said there was a $13.99 charge to ensure seats would be next to each other. We declined and ended up being split. Our friends also ordered tickets and declined the same change and their seats were split up. Guess where both our our seats were split up? Right next to each other. So we just switched seats and each couple got to sit next to each other.

tl;dr - airline purposely split up 2 seats for not paying the extra charge.

I don't know if you are going to get that kind of premium from Iowa fans, but they would probably be pretty pumped to see their team already win a game in Dayton for once before coming back to Iowa for a "2nd Round Game."
