The excitement of three days of the Big Blue Madness campout seemed to have dwindled Saturday morning as groggy fans stood in two lines that stretched around most of Memorial Coliseum

I am NEVER going again. I stood in line like everyone else, gave them my voucher, he shoved it back and said something, said something to a lady, put the stack he had down, picked up another and proceeded to give me upper level tickets while everyone else was getting lower. This was my first camping experience and overall, it was a waste of my time. Most of the players could give a damn about us fans, Liggins wouldnt sign anything so my ball lacked his signature, and then I get done wrong at the ticket office. It's amazing how you can be one of the biggest fans goin and with one bad experience, not really even care anymore.
I am a huge UK fan, that's why it was so disappointing. To finally be able to go, to have loved the program for so long, and to get smacked in the face. Don't question my fandom. So you can go f*ck yourself.
You're stupid, I am happy I got tickets cuz I didnt get any last year. I'm pissed at how the box office did me. Camped out for 3 days for him to do what he did and give me uppers when I shoulda had lowers. I guess you just dont understand. Maybe you're not as passionate. Guess that makes me a bigger fan than you. Or maybe you're just mad you couldnt get any.
So bitch at the lady who gave you tickets. Don't throw the team under the bus because you weren't man enough to say, "why am I getting upper arena when the last guy got lower?"
Guess you dont understand then. I'm not giving anything away. I camped for 3 days for those. Just makes me mad to get screwed with no explanation. Can't help if you dont understand that. Only reason I keep saying anything is cuz people like you have something smart to say.
And I did ask, but he wouldnt say anything. I'm not throwing anybody under the bus. But if you were there you woulda been disappointed with players too. Nothing like last year from what I hear. And Liggins kept saying he'd come out to sign stuff but never would. It's like if you met your childhood hero to only find out they were an ass. Same situation. The players dont care about us fans.
You do realize they players don't have to do anything at all right? And as a recent Alum of UK I don't ever want to hear someone who probably never went to UK complaining about not getting tickets. They do the students so wrong for those games it isn't even funny. Sure we get $5 tickets, if your lucky to get them after spending 2+ hours sitting and waiting at a lottery every 3rd Monday night. If you even get a ticket you are bound for the rafters since only about 500 tickets are lower level. They finally started allowing students to get midnight madness tickets early this year because UK fan's from all over Kentucky come and camp out and take all the tickets. I went to UK for 4 years and never once was able to go to BBM because every time I tried the tickets were gone. So count yourself lucky you even got tickets instead of complaining about being in the upper deck.
C'mon, our friend's disappointed. Who wouldn't be? There's doubtless a reason for his upper-level tickets (didn't have the wrist band? voucher was a copy or the number was out of sequence?), we just don't know what it was. But the window clerk must have spotted something: he appears to have asked someone for guidance.
I have a hard time believing the window clerk randomly messed with our friend for the fun of it. That's just the disappointment talking.

Can I have your tickets?
Yeah it is amazing. Almost like you aren't really a fan at all...

When you get tickets for the best basketball program in the world and you whine about, what else are we to think. Give your tickets to a REAL fan!!!
