We've never heard of the lines at the DCU Center box office being excruciatingly long on the day of the boys' and girls' state basketball finals, but if you're not one for waiting, you can order your tickets to Saturday's games online through Ticketmaster right now.

You just might want to check that limit on your credit card.

A typical $12 general admission ticket will cost you $18.65 online. See, there's the $12 ticket, the $6.15 convenience charge, and a $.50 building facility charge. A $7 student ticket will cost you $12.75 online after charges.

Oh, and you'll have to pay $2.50 for the TicketFast option to have your tickets emailed to you. Otherwise, you'll have to pick them up at Will Call, and probably stand in the same line that you'd otherwise pay just $7.50 or $12.50 to buy a ticket the day of the game.

Gotta love TicketMaster.
