aints did a backdoor price increase on everyone.


Ahh. My tickets are in the bunker club and only went up a few bucks I believe, not a whole game worth. My tickets are already expensive but they’ve been spared for the most part on yearly increases

I finally got the presale email from the Saints

Presale Offer from the NFL: Tickets to Saints-Vikings in London

Your Presale Time is Wednesday, July 13 @ 8am CT

As you know, the Saints are headed to London for the third time in franchise history, with a battle vs. the Vikings slated for Sunday, October 2 in Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The squad will be putting its undefeated international record on the line following wins in 2008 and 2017 (see our slideshow from the 2017 visit).

All primary ticket sales for the game are being managed by the NFL in conjunction with Ticketmaster, and the NFL has provided the Saints with a limited number of presale inventory for Season Ticket Holders.

Here’s how the presale will work:

? To purchase presale tickets, you’ll need a Ticketmaster account with the email we have on file. We strongly encourage you to confirm your account is set up with the email on file prior to the presale.
? We’ll send you an access link approximately 1 hour before your presale window – Wednesday, July 13 @ 8am CT -- begins. The NFL is allowing Season Ticket Holders to purchase up to four (4) tickets during the presale, subject to availability. Due to demand, Ticketmaster's "queuing" feature may be employed. If you end up in line for tickets, do not close the browser window or you'll lose your spot!
? Per the NFL, presale tickets are being sold as the “best available location” – you will not be able to select seats -- with prices ranging from £64-£146 (approximately $77-$176 USD based on today’s exchange rate), plus additional fees of a £3.50 ($4.20) per-ticket booking fee and a £2 (~$2.40) per-order mobile ticket delivery fee. All tickets will be mobile.
? Upon completing a purchase, your information will be transferred to Ticketmaster UK for ticket delivery. But please note that tickets won't be sent by Ticketmaster UK, via email, until approximately 7-10 days before the game.

Curious - How long have you had season tickets?

Just like the other poster said, you only getting 9 home games total this year. Saints are trying to justify it by saying you still getting 8 home reg season games as last year. So you paying for 10 total games, only getting 9.

Saints are double dipping. So in fact everyone paid an increase this year. On top of that, mine went up 20%

That’s surprising that you’re not ahead of me. My friend who got tix in 2006 is at 10am instead of 8am.

Yeah you are right. I guess I never even consider or think about preseason. I always just give those tickets away so in my head I’m looking at the price for my regular season tickets. Which is how most people think and probably how they get away with it without pushback

Just purchased a pair through the pre-sale option. It kicked me out a few times but got through.

Section 119 row 10. £279.00 total. There was one tier higher.

Were you able to select your tier or is it basically you get what they assign to you? From the presale description, it sounds like the latter. I just pulled up the seating chart, and section 119 are pimp seats.

They had 6-8 tiers if I remember correctly. Each with an assigned cost. You pick your tier and it automatically assigns seats in that tier.

From looking at the seat chart before and after, my guess is the top two tiers are sideline seats in lower bowl. It then moves to end zone lower and repeats as you go higher.

Good to know. My rep just told me that we would not get our actual ticket location until 7-10 days before the game. Good to know that is not the case.

lol, I was just about to post here. The site is not working. I've called the ticket office and said that many people are having issues. And since this is a ticketmaster event, they're pretty much just throwing them under the bus. Their only advice was to "keep trying".
