Class A State Finals

[wrstlngfn]

Does anyone know what time the 2nd session on Friday will start for Class A in Champaign? I don't know if I can get off work to make it to the 1st session.

Any help is appreciated.

They changed the lower bowl seat to $10 to try and stop the mad dash for seats for the finals. I am not sure if they are reserved or how they are going to do it, because people will pay the extra 2 bucks and those people will still do the mad dash to the seats?

Please note that the above schedule is from the 2004 program! It's only to give you an idea how it went last year. :)

That's for the info - that helps! Ok - EPdad has a question ... do they make you leave after a session - pay again to get back in for the next session? (EX: leave your seats after session #1 - pay to get back to your seats for session #2)

GOOD LUCK TO ALL!!!!!
And ... Happy Valentine's Day early!

if im correct there ep momma you can stay in your seats all day long it isnt like regionals and sec. where you have to leave when you buy your tickets you can buy all sessions together.see you tomarrow.

FACTS:

Assembly Hall is emptied after each session is over. Rentry prior to the next session begins 1 hour in advance, if i remember correctly. You'll be paying $8 or whatever it is this year for each session though, I promise. (but you can buy the tickets out front all at once. but, standing in line to re-enter the building when it's like 6 degrees is no fun.)
