FYI..

Frozen Four Ticket Policy

The NCAA allocates a very limited supply to each participating school,
and as a result the following policies are in place to fairly satisfy
the many requests for tickets: Sign up for the 2004 Ticket lottery will
begin on Monday, March 29th at 8:30 a.m. and conclude on Wednesday,
March 31st at noon. Sign up can be done through the Black Bear Ticket
Office either on a walk-up basis or by phone at 1-800-756-TEAM or
581-BEAR. For your convenience the ticket office will be open for
extended hours until 6:30 p.m. on both Monday and Tuesday evening. If
phone lines are busy please email [log in to unmask] directly and an
athletic department representative will call you back.

While the Athletic Department will take as many orders for tickets as
possible, it is highly unlikely, due to the limited quantities, that we
will able to satisfy many orders outside of the following priority
list.

Priority for tickets is as follows:

All University of Maine hockey players and their families

75 tickets will be allocated to current University of Maine students,
which is equal to the same percentage averaged at all home games this
season at Alfond Areana. (Click here for Student Policy and Details)

Donors to the athletic department at or above $10,000 annually
Once the above groups have been allocated their tickets, if tickets
remain, the athletic department will conduct a weighted lottery, limit
2 per person, that will take into consideration both season ticket
holders as well as athletic donor level during the 2003-04 year.

If fans would like to increase their chances at tickets for this year’s
Frozen Four the Black Bear Club and Shawn Walsh Hockey Center will be
accepting gifts, which are non-refundable, and will increase the
probability of securing tickets for the Tournament.

At the deadline for lottery sign-up on Wednesday, March 31st at noon
the athletic department will also release the methods by which fans can
pick them up.

The University has a strict scalping policy and if any fans are caught
doing so their eligibility for tickets will be revoked.

All Black Bear Club Donors who placed their orders prior to March 19th
are already entered into this Frozen Four Ticket lottery and will not
need to place an additional order.
