May make a last minute trip down. Looking on all the ticket sites, any decent seat to the game is $400-$500 minimum. Not that I can't afford it if I wanted, but do people really pay that much to go to a damn college regular season game? Just curious how inflated these prices are and how much they typically drop at the last minute?

How much did you fork up for your ticket?

Not true. What are you looking for? 50 yard line? I have a buddy with 2 in the south endzone for under $250 on stub hub. Very decent seats.

Not true unless you want To get butt raped by a ticket broker on eBay. Prices typically drop the day of if you want to wait. I am driving down from Austin with no tickets. I Usually get $100-$150 the day of. I bought 2 for the 2014 game day around $110 a piece sec 409. Bama 2012 day of upper east lower chair backs about the same price. Bama 2010 I bought on eBay a week prior like a dumbass and paid 300 a ticket and had shite tickets in the east upper. Typically have tickets for sale around our tailgate spot in lot J. Just have to be patient and perhaps wait til around 5ish and I gurantee some drunk or someone got called out or wife got pissed and has to sale their tickets. The hardest ticket to come by in the last 20 years was Georgia 2003 and Florida 07.

I wouldn't consider sitting in the end zone a decent seat. Basically you're watching the Jumbotron the entire time.

First of all, most decent tickets require a "seat fee", and it varies based on the location. So for that $115 Face value ticket, season ticket holders can pay 2-3 times face for that ticket. So the markups are not as much as you think on the tickets. So do not feel bad if you pay $400-$500 for a ticket.

bullshite. I'm in the 8th row of the south upper (not new upper) and can see just fine. Even when they are inside the 10 of the north endzone

$100. Face value $126. It was basically a Christmas Miracle that got me a ticket since I was last in line for dibs on the family season tickets.

If you come down, then just wait 30 min before the game. People will be trying to get rid of them

Florida 07.


Paid $200 for a ticket in the NEZ and walked over to the student section and stood with friends. Most I've ever paid for a ticket, but it was worth it for that game.

BS. I've sat 30 rows up in 405 for 10+ years and love it, can see everything and will never move.

Well the face value is $125 per ticket to begin with for my section. I think that's way to high to begin with. But they only charge $35 to $40 for those non conf games.

Well then pay your premium for sideline seats since you're such an expert on tiger stadium seating and the views they encompass.

I've sat in the south end zone twice and had zero perception of yardage markers and depth. Just my opinion.

Don't turn down upper Lowers between the 20s. Some of the best seats in terms of watching the plays develop.
