CEILING FANS The Ceiling Fans program is a group of 500 students who sit in the same seats in the last rows of the upper level for the entire year. The seats for Ceiling Fans stay the same for the entire season, and once you have com mitted to being a Ceiling Fan, you have no other chance for any other seat for the entire season; you forgo your right to participate in any other form of distribution! THE CEILING FANS PROGRAM BECOMES APPLICABLE AFTER THE EXHIBITION GAME DISTRIBUTION FROM OCT. 2-5. ALL STUDENTS MAY PICK UP EXHIBITION GAME TICKETS ON A FIRST COME, FIRST SERVE BASIS! Students will come to the Smith Center Ticket Office from Tuesday, September 26 to Thursday, September 28 from 8-5 to sign up for the Ceiling Fans program. Each student may only sign up him/herself and must show a valid UNC One Card upon signing. A total of 20 completed sheets with 25 names each will be drawn, making a total of 500 Ceiling Fans for the year. The winning sheets will be posted in the Smith Center Ticket Office window. For the rest of the year, Ceiling Fans will pick up their tickets the Friday before each Saturday distribution from 8-5 in the Ticket Office. Any tickets that do not get picked up on Friday will go back into the regular distribution on Saturday. Sign up dates for Ceiling Fans will be advertised in the DTH. ACC TOURNAMENT INFORMATION The following is the schedule for information and distribution of ACC tournament tickets: January 20: ACC Tournament information will be re-distributed and printed for students' awareness. January 29, 30, 31 : ACC Sign-ups. Students will have the opportunity to sign up in the Pit for different sheets to be placed in the drawing for tickets. Each student may only sign up him/herself and must show a UNC One Card upon signing up. Sheets are numbered, and students should remember the number on the sheet they sign, as that is how winners are announced. As sheets are completed, they will be placed in a drawing. Staff will draw enough sheets to satisfy the number of student tickets Carolina is allotted, includ ing one “alternate” sheet. February 3: The winning sheets that are drawn will be announced at halftime of the Georgia Tech basket ball game. February 5: ACC tournament vouchers will be available for purchase at the Smith Center Ticket Office. Students whose sheet was drawn should come to the office and purchase their vouchers. The student needs to bring both a UNC One Card and a picture ID to the Georgia Dome to turn their vouchers in for tickets. February 6: If all the tickets are not purchased on February 5, the students whose names were on the “alternate” sheet may purchase any remaining tickets at the Smith Center Ticket Office. February 7: If by this date there are still tickets available, any student with a valid One Card may come to the Ticket Office to purchase them. February 8: If any tickets remain, they will be released to the Educational Foundation to sell. THE RISER SEATS Part of the new seating arrangement in the Smith Center includes approximately 400 student seats in standing-only risers behind the basket. When the starting number is drawn on Thursday before any Saturday distribution, a separate number will also be drawn for the riser seats. This number will NOT be announced. On Saturday as the line moves, once the chosen number arrives at the ticket window, staff will begin distributing riser seat tickets until they are all distributed. These riser seat tickets can therefore show up anywhere in the line. Please be aware that the risers are standing-only and allow for no sitting down during the game. Students whose number is part of the risers range always have the option to get regular seats and forgo the riser tickets. There will be NO DRINKS allowed in the riser seats. Students will bring their ticket with “riser" printed on it to the Smith Center the night of the game to turn it in for a colored bracelet. This bracelet will allow for entry in and out of the riser section during that game. Specifics about where these bracelets will be obtained will be passed out during each distribution. These rules are subject to change, and all changes will be made public during distributions. SENIOR DOOK DISTRIBUTION Students should come to the ticket office, as usual, on Tuesday from spm to 7pm, Wednesday from Bam to spm or on Thursday from Bam to spm during the week of the distribution. There will be two sets of bracelets, each with a different range of numbers. Bracelets in the first set will be distributed to the seniors, and bracelets in the second set will be distributed to the rest of the students. However, bracelets will be distributed simultaneously to all students on these two days. For example, senior bracelets may range from 10,000 to 15,000 and underclassmen bracelets from 15,001 to 20,000. The CAA will draw a random number from each set of bracelets, one for the seniors and the second for other students. The two numbers will be printed in the DTH on Friday. Seniors should report to the Smith Center Saturday morning for a line check at 6am. If you are late, your number will become invalid. Seniors can bring two One Cards, their own and one other senior’s. The rest of the students should report to the Smith Center for a line check at 11 am. The CAA does NOT guarantee that everyone with a bracelet will get a ticket. If you have any doubt that your status in the computer will not indicate that you are a senior, you should bring an official letter from the Registrar's Office. Otherwise, the CAA will go with what the computer indicates as your year, and you will not receive a ticket. * Seniors include anyone graduating in May or December, undergraduates and graduates. Juniors with enough credit hours but who are not graduating early are not included in the senior distribution.
