It is Family Weekend, so you can also get a good deal on tickets.Typically, they put Ohio in sections 1 or 2 so you may want to choose those sections if available. Maybe we can donate the hats to Goodwill?

Here's the link.
 

Friends and Family Package

For only $44 receive 4 general admission tickets to the game, 4 hot dog and drink vouchers and 4 Miami hat vouchers.  A very family-friendly package.  Additional tickets can be purchased for $11 each.

To purchase the Friends and Family Package, order at least 4 tickets and then once you have received your seat location, you may change the ticket type to "FF (Min. of 4)" 

Please keep in mind that all "EAST STANDS" tickets are General Admission.  That is the Miami Student Section.  You may choose this location to be able to sit with a Miami Student.  Reserved tickets are available in Section 1, 2, 6, and 7, however Miami Students must  have a ticket for those sections to sit there.

I won't be going, but I hope a huge Ohio following makes it to Yager, like 2006 and 2010. Did anything come about for an O Zone bus trip?

My wife and I are planning to there, as usual.  We've been making trips to Oxford for this game for years.  We even went "back in the day" when we were OHIO students and this was "migration weekend."  GO OHIO!

I'm in +3. Making the trek from Charleston, WV for this one. Looking forward to taking advantage of the 4 tix for $44. Not sure if I'll pass a trash can or bathroom first, but one lucky receptecle will receive four new hats.

Looking forward to this one a lot. Really hope we can bring a decent crowd and intimidate Fiami on their own turf.

There was initially talk of a Ozone bus trip but that ended up falling through according to some people I know.

It's the same day as OU HallOUween so not many students will be making the trip in my opinion.

I'm currently thinking about going and coming back for HallOUween later in the night.

I called the OHIO ticket office today and the OU allocation is sold out. They must not have had many because when I called the Fiami ticket office they still had plenty of seats in Section 1, the section where OUr allocation is. They said Section 1 seats up to about row 29 were the the OHIO section, referred to them as including the band (110). I did not think the band was going? Anyone hear otherwise?

I bought 8 tickets in Section 1, rows 34 & 35. Sounds like plenty left in Section 1. The rest of the main stadium side is almost sold out - they said the Family Pack deal was Very Popular (what I bought - 8 tics, 8 dogs, 8 drinks, 8 hats to throw in trash can - $88).

End zone and student side still lot of tics available. Sounds to me like won't be anything like 5,000 Bobcats there - not what I was expecting. Maybe the WLW/700 show last night get's more Cincy/Dayton area alums/fans up there. They said they had several calls today for tics from OHIO fans.

We all need to put the press on - friends, family, students - we need to have a Big OHIO showing there!

Sold out? Or had to be returned to Miami? Because it was publicized that order deadline was Wednesday.

Don't doubt that we will have 5K there next week. This was the first time I have EVER bought tickets at Miami presale.

OUr office said they did not give us many, and that the deadline was Wednesday - and their office said the allocation was sold out - so likely both true. I have been to MANY BBall games in Oxford, this my first FBall game, and bringing 7 others who also 1st. I sure hope we have 5K! The news that the 110 will be there alone should increase OUr attendance (probably their's too).

This is a pretty good deal (except for the hats - UNLESS you know someone who actually attends this pitiful university. I GUESS we could give them the hats for Christmas - or they DO make GREAT targets for shooting practice!).

There will be AT LEAST four of us attending.

In +110... 

No, I'm not seriously bringing 110 people, but I did see the 110's Facebook feed officially announced last night that the band is making the trip to Oxford. Should be a great turnout!

I called the Fiami ticket office again today to get 2 MORE (now up to a DOZEN) tics. Section 1 now 3/4ths sold out, last section not sold out in the main stands section (Fiami students on other side of the field, and a couple smaller end zone sections still have tics).

Better get your tics FAST! I just hope that most of section 1, and a lot of section 2 are OHIO. There will be lot's of Green sprinkled around the stadium as well. Will we have at least 5K OHIO there??????

At first I was going to just refuse or throw away the hat. How about we all keep them and first time Dysert is sacked or throws and interception we all wad them up and toss into the air - "Hats Off" to the "D"?

And BTW - who is starting the "OU, Oh Yeah" chant? Maybe the 110 start w/"OU" then we chime in w/the "Oh Yeah"?

Should do this when the Cats run onto the field just before game start - ? Pump up the Jam?

Hi Bobcatattackers,

 The wife and I are making the trip. We will be in sec. 1 also. Hoping for decent weather so we could ride the bike down with our Bobcat flag flying from the back.

I once had an account here but it was lost in the site issues awhile back. Go Cats !!

If I were allowed to go, I'd lead it. Sadly, RA's aren't allowed to leave town because of some holiday being celebrated this weekend...the name escapes me now though.
SOMEBODY please lead this. I would be so happy to have a video of that deafening chant echoing throughout Fiami.
