re: What are chances of finding LSU-UF tickets outside stadium?

i have never paid more than face value for a ticket at the stadium, and rarely had to pay that much.

raise your two fingers until an old couple comes by with extra, ask them if they will sell for face value, and you will have no problem.

i would start looking around 5 or even earlier.

slim to none.........and none just kicked slim in the junk and took his ticket.

I live 4 hours away and don't get to go to that many games so $150.00 a tic would be reasonable to me for a game like this

I used to buy them outside the stadium all the time. I have always found tickets for sale, but the bigger the game the tougher it is to find what you want and the more you'll pay. Typically you can get them for below face value. However, you also run the risk of not being able to sit together with your friends. How many do you need?

For a game like Florida you might prefer to pay more online (try the ticket exchange board) knowing you've got tickets in hand.

Same here.

as long as your name is not rosenthal, you will be fine

I started buying tickets outside the stadium in the mid 70s. Since then, that's the only way I ever go to games. I have been to some of the biggest ganes in Tiger Stadium history & have never failed to find tickets at or very close to face value. Sometimes I've had to sweat it out & finally get tiokets 10 minutes before kickoff but I've probably been to 50+ games with no tickets when I arrived at the stadium.

The key issue here is the # of tickets. If all you need is a single (FOR a BIG GAME) then chances of you finding a face value ticket is pretty high.

If you need multiple tickets together (FOR A BIG GAME) then the odds are really NOT in your favor for getting a face value ticket but you will be able to get some just will have to pay 4 high $$ for them.

Another suggestion is to hang around some of the really rowdy tailgate parties and inevitably a few of the highly intoxicated folks (or their less intoxicated friends) will gladly sell you there tickets for a very reasonable price.

1 ticket - possible, two, iffy...for a price, three or more - have a heavy arse wallet. Big dollar people will pay for 3 plus togehter. Two years ago, 4 tickets to the UF game got my friend a grand. It basically paid for half of his season ticket costs. He went home happy and 4 fat cats strutted into the game to watch a great game. In short, everyone was happy.
