Maui classic Ticket rant

So, I know a trip to Maui is no biggie for most VT fans/alums, right? Just hop on a flight, stay at a resort.. boom. No issues. Silly me thought that it was actually pretty cool that I am going to happen to be in Maui this year for a long planned trip at a time share and low and behold - the hokies are playing on the island. Cool!! Well GA seats are $469.00 plus 14 dollars service fee plus 20 dollars shipping fee when buying from VT or the Maui site. This is for 3 games, - or $167.00 per game- one could be against Chamminade- an NAIA team or whatever division they are in... Naive me thought that this tournament -in Maui- would not demand such prices (NBA Playoff ticket pricing) since Maui is uber expensive, a 10 hour flight, a long vacation spot for most, etc.. and not something someone would plan around hoops games, etc. Of course you can not buy one game, you must buy all three. Well now I know. I also know why they continue to have this tourney- they make a shit load of money. I seriously had no idea tix would be that expensive. wow. Do the locals pay that much? or do michigan state and kansas hoop fans actually plan $10,00.00 vacations around when there team will be in Maui? I know VT hoops fans do not do this.

I love a good nap. Sometimes that's all that's getting me out of bed in the morning.

I can imagine no more rewarding a career. And any man who may be asked in this century what he did to make his life worthwhile, I think can respond with a good deal of pride and satisfaction:
β€œI served in the United States Navy"
