I paid $300 for a pair lower level. They were the $95 seats, so it's
not like i paid a whole lot more when you consider the ticketmaster
fees and shipping. i wound up paying $40 more per ticket. For a once
in a lifetime event and the atmosphere on Sat, it's well worth it. I'd
rather sit downstairs for that money then upstairs. Besides, it not
like alot of people knew 2 weeks ago or even a week ago that the
cheaper tickets would become avialable on ticketmaster once again
after the 12th.

This game will not have 17,000+ meat in the seats. There are still too
many tickets left on broker sites for astronomicla prices. ($25 seats
for an average of $150-200). I have to agree that this is going to
get botched somehow.

But, you're in the ballpark. If you pretend to sell a ticket on Stubhub
you can see what recent sales were going for, and uppers were going for
10x's face.

So, for people that payed $200 for $20 ticket, and could have gotten
well, a $20 ticket for $20 or a $200 ticket for $200, it's kinda funny,
you have to admit.

I agree, there's no way, especially if there's a monsoon.

Drenching the scalpers isn't going to help them sell tickets, and it pisses
off customers that paid a premium for those tickets, when they could have
bought tickets for 10 games for what they paid for one.

We'll see if they held back too many tickets, and the wrong type,
to boot. Holding back $100 corners is moronic.

LOL, the last thing they need for for that place not to be full.
