$23 for Four Tickets to University of Texas Men’s Basketball Games

Basketball has all the fast-paced action of soccer, but its much smaller net is defended by five times as many people—it’s no wonder that all soccer has been permanently canceled. Celebrate the king of indoor sports with today’s Groupon: for $23, you get two end-court mezzanine tickets to two University of Texas men’s basketball games (four tickets total) at the Frank Erwin Center (a $46 value). The Groupon must be redeemed online by December 30. This Groupon includes two tickets to the December 31 game against Coppin State at 1 p.m., and two to the January 4 match against Arkansas at 8 p.m. Under the wizened leadership of seniors Matt Hill and Gary Johnson, this year’s Longhorn team is currently undefeated on their home court. You and a fellow free-throw enthusiast can watch each pass, head fake, and speculative three-point attempt from fabulous end-court seats as the Longhorns defend their turf against an onslaught of Eagles, Razorbacks, and relentless stomp-clapping to the tune of Schoenberg’s String Quartet no. 4.
