Bradley tickets on sale now -- Tremendous chance great seats for BU's Madness/Red-White Scrimmage/Exhib vs. Quincy -- and Honors to Coach Stowell
I just came from the NEW Bradley arena ticket office...
not even one other person in line and I was in and out in just a few seconds......
Tickets are on sale, use the circle drive up and you're in and out instantly...
Tickets are currrently on sale for all the events...
-The Oct. 15 Madness/Hoopla
-The Oct. 24 Red-White Scrimmage
-The Nov. 6 Exhibition game vs. Quincy
-Leno concert
-women's games
-VB games, etc...
I personally got 6 tix to each of the Hoopla, Red-White, and Quincy Exhib. (so there, you guys who said I already had tickets to all the events were wrong as usual)
and I might even go back and get tickets for a few of the women's games and maybe even Leno ......
BUT here's the clincher---
Hardly anyone knows yet that they can walk right up and buy tickets in the front few rows at courtside...
very few tickets are sold thus far and many, many outstanding seats are wide open and available.
Anyone who wants can literally go there now and get seats within the first 3 rows at midcourt or anywhere in the entire arena that you want,
so get there ASAP -- I cannot guarantee how long those prime seats will be available. All seats will be numbered and good only for the seat location designated -- no general admission where you can sit where you want.
The better seats are, of course, a bit more expensive...but they'll show you a chart and you can pick the seats you desire. I chose Sec. 16 right behind the BU bench and within inches of where the players sit.......
So -- I don't want to hear any more talk of how someone was shut out, or how they had no opportunity to get good seats!
This has turned out exactly as I had predicted -- there is and will be for a short time an absolutely outstanding opportunity for anyone to lock in on the very best seats imaginable - seats like you'll maybe never have the chance again to get once people find out how simple this is.
I know we'll hear it, but there should be NO reason for anyone to ever say -- "we wanted good seats but we were shut out!!"
By the way -- here's info for anyone who thinks (naively) that Bradley has NOT given honor to Coach Joe Stowell......
--Coach Stowell still is still given the honor of doing the women's games, and let and in addition just check back in history......
Coach Joe Stowell has been honored and loved by BU like virtually no other person...
--Bradley has BESTOWED Hall of Fame status to Joe Stowell since (get this) March 7, 1959!!
That's right, he's been a HOF'er at BU for 51 years -- he has BOTH a plaque and a permanent photo induction honor...
There are very FEW BU athletes or coaches who were inducted LONGER ago than Coach Stowell.

--Bradley has also helped assure that Coach Stowell has been prominently inducted into the Greater Peoria Hall of Fame as well......within the first few years inductions were made back in the 80's
http://www.gpshof.org/Inductees/stowell.html
--They have even further HONORED Joe Stowell and his name by recently PLACING his name on one of the TOP AWARDS in the entire Athletic Department and naming it the
.... Coach Joe Stowell Award
http://www.bradleybraves.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=3400&KEY=&ATCLID=883026
...and they've even given him other awards also -- and writeups in the Hilltopics, making him the "Honored Guest" and various luncheons and other events,
and other things named after him...and BU has set up the.........
Coach Joe Stowell Scholarship Fund at Bradley...
and use the funds donated to it for various things like helping to send kids from the community to the Mitchell JJ Anderson basketball camps, the Carevr Center, and BU scholarships...
On August 13, 2008, at one event...
"Former Bradley player Bobby Humbles (presented) Coach Stowell with a lifetime achievement award"
...and made "..a donation to the Coach Joe Stowell Scholarship Fund at Bradley"...
And on and on it goes......anyone who says Bradley has NOT honored Coach Stowell is absolutely wrong and uninformed (or lying)..
he's perhaps the most honored and multiply awarded person in BU history!! Congratulations Coach Stowell -- you deserved ALL these awards!!
