I saw on TKR that 200 section tickets at Madison Square Garden opened up today for the Rutgers-Michigan State game on February 4th. So I go on Ticketmaster to get 4 tix for my 3 kids and me. Before buying, I check their schedules for February 4th. My 9-year daughter has a gymnastics meet that day. No problem, I'll just get 3 tickets. Then I do a double-take. Her gymnastics meet is the Scarlet Knight Invitational at Rutgers.
I'm in favor of RU playing a few games at MSG. This approach can work in our region. UConn has won 4 national championships splitting home games between the on-campus Gampel Pavilion and a bigger arena in Hartford.
Still, what is going on here? I have contacted the athletics department to get an answer. Maybe somebody on TKR has better knowledge on how these decisions get made.
