March Madness Ticket Sales Tighten as Championship Week Kicks Off
This year’s Championship Week features drama as several conference titles are yet to be decided. Third party sports ticket sites are feeling the tension as sales spike with each win.
(firmenpresse) - As Michigan State clinched its second seed finish in the Big 10 this weekend, a number of other NCAA Championship berths will be decided in games this week. The uncertainty has held back NCAA Championship Tournament ticket sales as fans hold off buying until they know whether their teams will be competing in the later rounds of the tourney.
The [Michigan State Spartans](http://www.sportsticketbank.com/college-hockey/michigan-state-spartans-hockey-vs-ohio-state-buckeyes-tickets/in-east-lansing/munn-ice-arena/march-11-2016?_ga=1.169021729.1831664662.1442357177) are a case in point. While it''s long been established that the solid team was going on to tournament play, they''ve traded first and second place in the Big 10 conference several times over the past six weeks. The Spartans caught fire in the last weeks, winning 10 of their last 11 games. Their Saturday night performance against Ohio State gave them a solid second seed, and electrified fans as Coach Tom Izzo pulled all four of the senior players off the floor late in the game and still finished with a 91-76 final score.
In the wake of the Spartan win, third party sports ticket sites saw an uptick of sales for the Friday night game, in which the Spartans will take on the winner of Thursday''s Penn State v. Ohio State game.
€œIt''s not unusual for NCAA fans to hold off on buying college basketball tickets until they know the schedule for their team," said a representative of online ticket seller, SportsTicketBank.com. €œWhen it comes down to NCAA tournament games, though, they''re facing competition from outside the team''s home base. With just a few hundred tickets left for the quarterfinal games, they could be locked out of a great sports experience if they hesitate."
The race for tickets is even tighter for those who want an all-sessions pass to the entire Big 10 Championship Series. The site currently lists just over 100 NCAA Big 10 all session passes remaining for sale.
€œThese early conference championship games offer the best chance for college basketball fans to get in on the excitement of tournament play," according to the site representative. Tickets for later rounds get progressively rarer and more expensive. All session tickets for the [NCAA Final Four Championship at NRG Stadium in Houston](http://ncaa-mens-final-four.sportsticketbank.com/college-basketball/ncaa-mens-final-four-tickets?_ga=1.176952485.1831664662.1442357177), for example, average about $1,500.
