Tickets for the 2006 Big Blue Madness at Rupp Arena will be available Saturday, Sept. 30, at 8 a.m., at the Memorial Coliseum ticket office, online at UKathletics.com, and at all Kentucky-area TicketMaster outlets. Madness, the first practice opportunity for Kentucky’s 2006-07 men’s and women’s basketball teams, is Friday, Oct. 13, at 9 p.m.
Tickets are free again this year, however online and TicketMaster outlet sales have a service fee attached. There is a limit of four tickets per person. A list of Kentucky-based TicketMaster outlets can be found at Ticketmaster.com.
At the request of campus public safety officials, fans wishing to line up ahead of time at Memorial Coliseum are asked to do so no earlier than 8 a.m., Wednesday, Sept. 27. The Athletics Department will provide portable restroom facilities, but safety concerns will prohibit the use of permanent, wooden-type structures, and propane tanks or other open flames used in cooking.
Last year, the first time Madness was held at Rupp Arena, drew a national-record 23,174 fans for UK’s first practice. 20,000 tickets were snapped up in the first 35 minutes of availability.
