(Photo by Andrew Ybanez)While students from Tempe have already begun staking out spots at "Camp Fargo," if you're an ASU Downtown student, you've still got an opportunity to spare yourself hours in the unforgiving heat.
Unlike typical game days, where ASU's new student section policy (amended back in April) enables students to merely present their student ID to be presented with a wristband (and admission to all ASU athletic events) the highly anticipated matchup against No. 11 UCLA has, as expected, generated increased demand.
By clicking on this link, Downtown students can register through Eventbrite to reserve a wristband, which can be picked up at the west entrance of Wells Fargo Arena between 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. on Thursday.
Currently, about 1,400 student section tickets are still available for individual reservation, which closes today at 4:00 p.m. Arizona time.
Students are responsible for providing their own transportation to and from the game, but a shuttle is available at 4:30 to pick students up at 1st Street and Fillmore Street in Downtown Phoenix, which will drop riders off at 6th Street and Forest Avenue, approximately two blocks west of Sun Devil Stadium.
ASU Downtown Student Engagement asks that questions be directed to the Dean of Students at (602)-496-4357.
West:
West Campus students can reserve, at no cost, a seat on a game day shuttle to and from the game Thursday. The bus will leave from at 4:00 p.m. at the University Way North shuttle stop near Fletcher Lawn, and depart Sun Devil Stadium 30 minutes after the the game.
Polytechnic:
Students at the Polytechnic campus also can ride the shuttle to the game and back to campus. The Poly shuttle is scheduled to depart from the Phantom Hall bus stop and leave Sun Devil Stadium no later than 30 minutes following the conclusion of Thursday's game.
