The 2012 Big 12 Championship titlist Missouri men’s basketball team has been selected to play in its fourth consecutive NCAA Tournament. In front of a packed lower bowl of Mizzou Arena late Sunday afternoon, the Tigers found out they have earned a No. 2 seed in the West Region.
Mizzou (30-4) will face No. 15 seed Norfolk State this Friday, March 16, in Omaha, Neb. Tipoff time for the game at CenturyLink Center Omaha will be determined later tonight.
The Mizzou Ticket Office was allocated a very limited number of tickets. Based on such limited availability, only 2011 Tiger Scholarship Fund members at the Director’s Club level and higher ($10,000+) may request up to two tickets each based on availability. Donors who qualify may request tickets from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on Monday, March 12, by calling the Mizzou Ticket Office at 1-800-CAT-PAWS, or the Tiger Scholarship Fund at 573-882-0704, while supplies last. Each request will be ranked by donor level and priority points. Donors will be notified via email by 7:00 p.m. Monday if they receive tickets. Please note that by requesting tickets, it does not guarantee that you will receive tickets.
Only Visa, Mastercard, or Discover cards will be accepted for payment for NCAA Tournament tickets. Second-round tickets are priced at $89. Should the Tigers advance to the third round of the tournament, those who received second-round tickets will automatically be charged and receive third-round tickets.
All tickets purchased may be picked up with photo ID at the CenturyLink Center box office off of 10th St. beginning approximately two hours before tipoff.
Should the Tigers advance to the West Regional in Phoenix (“Sweet 16”), those games will be played on March 22 and 24. Based on limited availability, only 2011 Tiger Scholarship Fund members at the Champions Club level and higher ($1,000+) may purchase up to four tickets each. Donors who qualify may purchase tickets from 8:00 a.m. To 5:00 p.m. on Monday, March 19, by calling the Mizzou Ticket Office at 1-800-CAT-PAWS, or the Tiger Scholarship Fund at 573-882-0704, while supplies last. Should any tickets remain after 5:00 p.m. Monday, March 19, all TSF donors and season-ticket holders may order by phone while supplies last beginning Tuesday, March 20, at 8:00 a.m.
