If an event is cancelled and not rescheduled, any remedy, credit, or refund will be determined solely by Northeastern State University in accordance with applicable University policy.

2. AUTHORIZED TICKET SALES

Tickets are issued and sold only by Northeastern State University Athletics or its designated ticketing agents and authorized partners.

Tickets obtained from unauthorized sources may be counterfeit, lost, stolen, duplicated, or otherwise invalid and may not be honored. Any person purchasing or acquiring tickets from an unauthorized source assumes all risks associated with that transaction.

NSU Athletics reserves the right to revoke tickets obtained or used in violation of University policies or these Terms & Conditions.

3. REVOCABLE LICENSE

This ticket grants the holder a limited and revocable license to enter the designated venue and attend the specified event from the location, section, or seating area authorized by the ticket.

Event-specific age restrictions, admission requirements, and ticket requirements may apply.

6. SECURITY SCREENING

For the safety of student-athletes, coaches, officials, employees, guests, and spectators, all persons and belongings entering an NSU Athletics venue may be subject to security screening.

Security measures may include, but are not limited to, security personnel, bag inspection, metal detector screening, restrictions on hand-carried items, and other measures deemed reasonable and appropriate by Northeastern State University.

Refusal to comply with required security procedures may result in denial of admission without refund.

7. BAGS AND PROHIBITED ITEMS

NSU Athletics may establish clear-bag requirements, bag-size restrictions, and prohibited-item policies for its venues and events. All ticket holders are responsible for reviewing and complying with the policies applicable to the specific venue or event.

Prohibited items may include, but are not limited to, outside food or beverages, coolers, cans, bottles, unauthorized noisemakers, fireworks, oversized stadium seats, unauthorized video or recording equipment, weapons prohibited by law or University policy, and other items determined by NSU to present a safety, security, operational, or event-management concern.

NSU reserves the right to modify prohibited-item and security policies when reasonably necessary for safety, security, or event operations.

NSU Athletics reserves the right to deny admission, eject a patron, or revoke ticket privileges for conduct that threatens safety, disrupts the event, interferes with the enjoyment of other guests, or violates applicable rules or laws.

9. SIGNS, BANNERS, AND PROMOTIONAL MATERIALS

Signs, banners, placards, leaflets, promotional materials, and similar items may be restricted or prohibited based on venue and event requirements.

NCAA legislation prohibits institutional employees, representatives of athletics interests, and others from providing prospective student-athletes, student-athletes, or their friends or relatives with benefits or special arrangements not authorized by NCAA rules.

Presenting or using a ticket to attend an MIAA event or affiliated activity constitutes the ticket holder's agreement to applicable MIAA terms, including limitations of liability and remedies, assumption of risk, publicity rights, releases, indemnification provisions, and other conference requirements.

In the event of a conflict between applicable MIAA Ticket Terms and institutional terms, the MIAA Ticket Terms shall control with respect to the MIAA, while Northeastern State University policies and these Terms & Conditions shall control with respect to the University to the extent provided by applicable law and conference policy.

15. MIAA EVENT CHANGES, CANCELLATIONS, AND REMEDIES

For an MIAA event, the sole and exclusive remedy available to the holder of a valid ticket if admission is refused or withdrawn, or if an event is cancelled and not rescheduled, shall be governed by the policies of Northeastern State University as the hosting institution.

The ticket holder shall not be entitled to consequential, incidental, indirect, or exemplary damages of any kind from the MIAA. The MIAA's liability for any breach of the terms associated with the ticket shall not exceed the face value of the ticket.

THE DATE AND TIME OF AN EVENT AND THE OPENING OF THE GATES ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE AT THE DISCRETION OF THE HOSTING INSTITUTION OR AS A RESULT OF CIRCUMSTANCES BEYOND THE CONTROL OF THE HOSTING INSTITUTION OR THE MIAA. NO REFUND OR OTHER REMEDY WILL BE PROVIDED BECAUSE A TICKET HOLDER CANNOT OR CHOOSES NOT TO ATTEND A RESCHEDULED EVENT.

Such provisions may include releases of the MIAA, its employees, officers, members, affiliates, agents, representatives, successors and assigns; MIAA member institutions; and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, coaches, players, participants, volunteers, administrators, and independent contractors from claims arising out of or relating to attendance at MIAA events, including claims involving injury, illness, or death, to the extent permitted by applicable law.

The ticket holder further acknowledges that applicable MIAA releases may address exposure to or contraction of communicable or infectious diseases arising from attendance at an event.

If any provision or portion of these Terms & Conditions is determined to be invalid or unenforceable under applicable law, the remaining provisions shall remain in effect to the fullest extent permitted by law.

Any invalid or unenforceable provision shall be construed, limited, or reformed to the minimum extent necessary to make the provision enforceable where permitted by applicable law.
