1 here, 1 there. My friend is a STH, and I was able to get a single ST through him for the lower bowl. I think the only two that I saw together were in the Club for $2000/each. I'm not sure how they handle the wait list, but with 70k+, it seems kind of wrong to let current STH grab as many as they want. Then again, I could be wrong, as they could be offering the same to people on the waitlist and it's just that no one wants single tickets.

While STHs should get first shot, I suspect the same seats will be available to those on the waitlist as all that is available is the overpriced Plaza Club seats.

yeah i was going to pick up any upper pairs then see what friends wanted them but when I got on at my time this morning it was 2 singles upper and 5 or 6 lower pairs ranging from $2,000 to $3,000 a ticket. I'm not messing with those

I have no problem with them getting first shot, but there should be some sort of limit. My friend started with 2 in 2004, and now has 12 under his name. Of course, there is always the argument that "If you wanted ST, you should have gotten them in 2005/6," but for me personally, I was 17 then, so that wasn't an option. However, now that I have mine, they can do whatever they want with the wait list

Just checked, there are 49 still available in Sec. 115. They come with a hefty price tag of $3,050/seat. But, if you have the $$$'s there are plenty available together with two sets of 3 on the aisles.

There are no upper level seats and just singles in the loge. There are also singles all over the plaza.

How is the order determined? Length of season ticket holder?

Yeah, not everyone was old enough or had enough money or whatever 10 years ago. Personally I've been living away from NOLA since 1999 and around 2008 I had enough money and was coming in town enough every year that I figured I'd get a set and split with my younger brother. Well, years later and I'm still waiting. And people just keep getting to add to their income. They should be for fans wanting to go to games, not supplemental income.

I've never gotten an email from the Saints other than for single game tickets that come available. I'm sure whenever I finally get offered it will be the way too expensive seats. It sucks. I'd love to get me some $100-150 range season tix but it will be years I guess..

We did the same thing. We have 5 between 2 of us.

They were $12/game at the time. $90 something per seat in 2006 because of no preseason games

Was a junior in HS

I started with 10 because I told friends and family i would pay for them up front and they pay me back. I needed 9, but the rep suggested i buy 10, so i did. Well, after a couple of years of sucking, no one wanted their tickets, so I was stuck with them. I didn't want to lose them. Well, once they started doing good, everyone wanted tickets again. I even had one of my brothers get some from me just so he could sell them. He would then get free tickets from a friend of his and invite other people to sit with him. Not once did he invite me to sit with him. After a couple of years with that, I stopped letting him get tickets from me. I've added some and put some in another brothers name since then. I sell my extras for profit because I would always have either my brother or others sell them for more money. I tried to be nice with people and let them get them cheap, but they would go and resell them. Every year someone buys a set of my tickets, and no one ever sits in the seats. They could be reselling them, or just using them to get in the dome to hang with friends at a bar in the dome.

Haha. We get along great. I have a big family, and we always have fun when we get together. You just don't mix family with business or money.
