MSU students can buy Conan O'Brien tickets Wednesday

It's all a go-go for fans of Team Coco.
Conan O'Brien's Legally Prohibited from Being Funny on Television Tour is headed to Michigan State University's Breslin Center on May 21 and Spartan students can buy their tickets beginning Wednesday.
Eric Branoff, a spokesman for the Associated Students of Michigan State University, told the Free Press today that MSU students (with student ID) can scoop up seats starting at 10 a.m. Wednesday. The special student pre-sale, $15 for MSU students (plus a $5 Breslin facility fee), will continue through 5 p.m. Friday.
Beginning at 10 a.m. Monday, tickets will be available to the general public as well as students. General public seats ($25, plus the facility fee) will be sold at the Breslin Center box office or through the venue's Web site: breslincenter.msu.edu/. Student ticket prices will remain $15 (plus the fee) and will be sold only at the box office.
Only 4,500 tickets will be sold for the Breslin Center show, though the facility holds more than 15,000. Branoff said that most of the tour stops O'Brien has scheduled are in smaller theaters and that his reps preferred a smaller audience for his MSU stop. Prices for the East Lansing show are "significantly lower than any of the other shows" on the tour, Branoff said. The late-night host's 30-city tour kicked off April 12, the same day it was announced he'd be bringing his show to TBS this fall.
"This is a way for ASMSU, as the undergraduate student government, to provide a low-cost event for the students to enjoy," Branoff said.
Comic Reggie Watts will open the show. Doors are at 6:30 p.m. and the show begins at 7:30. For more, go to http://teamcoco.com/ or http://asmsu.msu.edu/. http://bit.ly/bUNY2F
