My Osseo Football Ticket Hunt Begins
Okay so yesterday my kid suddenly goes “Dad can we watch Osseo’s game this Friday?” and I’m like shoot – I totally forgot tickets sell out crazy fast. Pulled out my phone right during dinner and started scrambling.
First thing I did was Google “Osseo High football tickets 2023” – massive mistake. Got flooded with third-party scalper sites charging triple price. Closed that garbage immediately. Remembered last year they only sold through one official place.
The Actual Buying Process
Hopped onto the Osseo High School athletics page (just search their official site name plus “athletics schedule”). Tapped the “Football” tab and spotted the “TICKETS” button blinking red for the next game. Here’s exactly how it went down:
- Step 1: Clicked “Purchase Tickets” and it asked for a login. Made an account right there – just email and password. Took 20 seconds.
- Step 2: Selected the game date from the dropdown. Saw the seat map flash yellow for available spots.
- Step 3: Smashed the “General Admission” button because assigned seats cost extra and honestly you see fine anywhere.
- Step 4: Typed in “4” for tickets (max allowed per person). Had my credit card ready on the table.
- Step 5: Checkout page popped up – filled card details fast like my life depended on it. Hit “Confirm Payment” sweating bullets.
Whole thing took maybe 3 minutes? Got the confirmation email before I even put my wallet away. Pro tip: DO NOT wait until game day. I checked again this morning and they’re already sold out. Those seats vanish like donuts at a PTA meeting.
What Worked and What Didn’t
Tried calling the school office first – big waste of time. Recording said “tickets available online only.” Also learned the hard way: mobile website works better than desktop during high traffic times. Desktop version froze when I tried selecting seats yesterday.
Last thing – screenshot your confirmation barcode! My buddy’s phone died at the gate last season and they almost didn’t let him in. Keep that email handy or print it if you’re old-school like me.
