Heart of Dallas Bowl 4.7 5 16 16
TicketCity Bowl Although the game didn't provide the outcome we wanted, the TicketCity Bowl is a first class event! We had fun from the moment we got to Dallas through the end of the game. It was our first time to the Cotton Bowl stadium - what history and tradition. Fun times. January 5, 2012
Loved the TicketCity Bowl! My husband and I attended the inaugural 1st TicketCity Bowl. The experience was easy and enjoyable. It was also great to see Texas Tech beat Northwestern. We would definitely go back! January 3, 2011
Ticket City Bowl Review My dealings with Ticket City while purchasing the tickets was outstanding. However, this is a game review and I was very disappointed with my game experience. The stadium announcer was horrific. Our whole section was making jokes about it. As a professional announcer myself, it was mind boggling that the bowl chose him as a stadium announcer. We were in section 6 (50 yard line) and were getting blown out by the speakers. We ended up moving to the upper deck just to get away from being blasted out by the speakers. The tickets were way over priced for a Tier 3 bowl. Those of us that are loyal to our universities will pay the price, but the low attendence can be blamed for ticket pricing being to high. They should have made tickets available to students of the universities around $5 to draw them to the game. I would have had family packages available also. Tickets, parking, hamburger, and drink for a low price of around $100 for a family of four. The marketing plan for this event needs strong re-evaluation. January 3, 2011
TicketCity Bowl not as good as the service As always, TicketCity was helpful and quick on getting me the tickets for the event. Unfortunately, the event itself could not match the sponsor's quality level. The game itself was very entertaining, as Houston's high-powered offense and speedy defense made up for the lack of production from Penn State. The real issue is the limitations of the Cotton Bowl Stadium itself. We had seats near the field, and the PA system had a horrible echo problem which made everything difficult to understand. As the weather got colder, we moved up about 20 rows and discovered that the speakers were so loud that you could barely hear yourself think. One other issue, especially for those above average in height...the seats are REALLY cramped. I'm 6'3" and it was impossible for me to squeeze my legs into my seating area. Luckily the stadium was far from capacity, so it was easy to move up or down a row and find plenty of space. If next year's game features a good matchup like Houston/Penn State, I'd probably consider attending again. I would definitely be more prepared for the limitations of the stadium next time around...
