Season Ticket Holders: Have you received your tickets?
I try to take my wife to a game in Ann Arbor every year. However, there's not a lot of decent single game tickets on the market right now. I'm hoping that more will be available when everyone has their season tickets in hand...so, have you season ticket holders received your tickets yet? Am I waiting for no reason?
NOTE: I'm aware of the ticket spreadsheet, I'm just more comfortable going through a ticket broker since I'm out-of-state and wouldn't be able to make a transaction in person.
Haven't received mine yet. Should be here in the next week I'd imagine, based on past years.
As of yesterday evening, no. I haven't checked today. I'd imagine it would be soon. I purchased some tickets for clients for the Air Force game and have already received those.
Rinse and repeat...
Nothing as of mail delivery yesterday.
Nope. I am in SE MI.
Nothing as of yet in Sioux Falls.
I haven't gotten mine yet (SE MI) but I did get the single game add-on pack I bought along with them a few days ago.
Season ticket holders don't need their tickets in hand before they are able to sell them on Stubhub. The University has an agreement with Stubhub so that all of the tickets are available to sell by just using the barcodes. So the majority of tickets you see for sale currently on Stubhub are from season ticket holders.
How exactly do you get a bar code off a ticket that's not in hand?
You don't. You list the in-hand date as a few days prior to the game and then enter the barcodes once you have them.
Ha - no. That is not how it works - you never have to enter any barcodes. You have an account and you select the tickets you want to sell. Once you buy the ticket from Stubhub - they will email you an e-ticket with the barcode that you can print out.
Ha - yes. This is precisely how it works for sellers. You have to eventually enter the barcodes for each ticket you sell, hence my referencing the in-hand date. Maybe it's different if there's a way to log in through your mgoblue account, but this is how it works through StubHub's account and system.
When a ticket is sold on StubHub, the seller at some point enters in the barcode from the ticket. Once that happens, a new barcode is generated through the UM system for the same ticket and emailed to the buyer. This is the benefit of StubHub being the "official resale partner of UM."
Ha - I see what you are saying. We are both correct. I've already sold some of my tickets for this season, got my money, and have never had to enter any barcodes because I log in though my mgoblue account that links to an inventory page that links to Stubhub.
I believe you are correct about direct listings on Stubhub without going through the mgoblue system. You could list them and sell them on Stubhub before you get them and enter the barcodes when you get the physical tickets in order to get your money. Or you wait until you get the physical tickets and enter the barcodes as you list them for sale on Stubhub.
It's so quick and easy to use the mgoblue account as your tickets are already loaded into the stubhub system. I highly recommend it.

That makes sense. I also didn't read your comment at the top when I replied to your reply. You probably have to wait longer to go through mgoblue I would assume since you'd have to wait for them to be active in the system. Good to know they've integrated it to make it easy also.
Didn't they just mail out today? I'd imagine you'll be getting them in the next 2 weeks.
Incidentally, I moved recently and the mailing address for my tickets was my old address. If you're in the same situation, the ticket office told me the following:
- The mail service should NOT forward to new addresses, but sometimes it happens.
- If they do not forward, it goes back to the ticket office and they will contact you about a new address (if time warrants) or doing will call.
- If nobody receives your tickets (meaning they went to the old address and the new occupants kept them), call the ticket office and tell them what happened - they will work on a reprint and reissue.
This happened to me last year. I just called the ticket office and picked up reprints prior to the first game.
This time I'm living back in Ann Arbor and (not so) patiently awaiting the tickets in the mail.
"WE AIN'T FOUND SHIT!"
hopefully soon.
That's when they always come. First week in August. Not first day in August, first week in August.
Don't have them by next week then maybe you have something to worry about.
Dammit, you people made me incessantly check my mail for my HTTV copy and now I'm going to incessantly check my mail for my season tickets. I had blissfully forgotten, too...
Probably will come next week. I seem to remember them arriving the first full week of August.
Haven't received mine yet in Dayton, oh.
Not yet...
...said nobody on the board.
nope
here in Ann Arbor. At least yet.
10 minutes away been sitting by the box for a week and nothing
Yes on tickets to the Florida opener

Didn't get season tix yet.
Did, however, get the FL tix. My wife almost threw the envelope with those 11 tix away! Looked like junk mail, tiny envelope, no indication of the mailing being from athletic dept. Only reason she paid attention to the envelope is that it was thicker than your average junk mailing.
And the FL tix look like what you'd get for tix to a high school game. Not a real collectible ticket stub, but it will still hang proudly on the man cave bar along with the last 25 years of M football & basketball ticket stubs!
Nope. Not yet, but should be here first full week of August as the others said.
