I haven't had to buy tickets outside the stadium in years, so I figured some of you could answer a question for me.

I'll be there Saturday with either one or both of my children, and maybe my brother. Based on the past few years, how good are my chances of finding 2, 3 or 4 lower bowl tickets ouside before a 2:30 game against Ole Piss? And what kind of money should I expect to pay?

Thanks and as always:

My guess is that you will be able to find them, and probably at face, worst case. Try hanging out in the tailgate areas in front of the Journalism building and the dorms. There are usually a number of sellers (not scalpers) there, and it isn't as mobbed as down by the stadium.

Thanks for the advice. I will definitely try that area.

Yeah I know that may be the best way. But it makes me a little nervous. I'd like to have tickets in hand early enough to enjoy some festivities outside and then get in a bit before the game. You think they will be a lot less shortly before kickoff?

if the ticket exchange board is any indication, you'll have NO problems finding tickets on saturday.

for cheap.

Hoping to pay a little less than what most there are looking for.

You just got to shop around. For the Miss State game, I talked to about 4 or 5 people who wanted anywhere from $75.00 to over $100.00 per ticket.

I found some for face value (I think it was $45.00 a ticket). My wife was kind of anxious but I enjoyed it. It brought back memories of my Dad who was great at that kind of stuff.

Now parking, that's a whole different issue. Hope traffic contol is better for you than it was after the Miss. State game.

Thanks.

How long before kickoff did you find them? And where were you. nycajun recommended by the Journalism building which I will try. But I'm open to any and all advice.
