Stub hub seems grossly overpriced. Should I wait for game day and buy them outside of the stadium? TD ticket exchange?

What should I expect to pay for the average seat for the UF game?

Eta: I should note that I don't live in LA.

I usually get them from friends, but I'd look outside the stadium. Stubhub is retardedly overpriced. Ticket Exchange isn't bad.

There's always tickets at the game.

Wait about 15-20 minutes before the game starts and the scalpers become relentless and start cracking.

You might miss pre game but if an extra 75-100 dollars is worth it, then missing Pre game isn't a big deal..(is to me, can't miss pre game).

I know this has been asked a bazillion times previosuly, but how much should I expect to pay for the big SEC games? Average seats.

When playing the Furmans of the world, it is likely that 15 minutes prior to KO some will be given to you. Happen to me last year. Given 6 tickets by 3 different people... just kept upgrading. Many times I am unable to sell our own tickets...Lower East Upper 40 yard line, when family(my daughters) has conflicts. The big games like Florida will be a more difficult but definately doable.

I've gotten them off Ebay. Some will be asking high prices but you can find some at face value.

For 6 years I never missed a home game and never sat in the upper deck. I also never had tickets before game day. Only twice did I pay more than face value. Tebow "concussion game" and a game with the gumps. Those two games I might have paid %50 more than face.

Other than that, getting tickets is easy. You just have to know what you are doing:

- Ask around at tailgates. Friends of friends are always willing to help.

- ALWAYS stay away from pro's. Look for ordinary people looking to dump tickets.

- Don't get nervous and buy too early. Later isn't always better, but it generally is

- Make sure they are real and not counterfeit. FL fans have a ton of fakes.

- Visiting fans have tons of tickets. Especially visiting fans that buy from stub hub or some other ticket site. This especially true among Gumps. They tend to buy a ton of tickets. Then someone gets arrested for beating "the old lady" and can't go. The trailer park rallies and sells their great tickets.

Trust me man, its easy as hell to score good tickets below face.

Depends on how many u need? U could prob get 1 upper deck ticket for basically any game for face value or less if u are patient.

The more tix together, the more difficult it gets.

Nah, face should be about it.

Different case. Since it is their first time to BR in years, their fan base will buy a ton off ticket websites. They will also bring a lot of people looking to buy tickets outside the stadium. Tickets will be high for this game.

Either way, its a hell of a lot cheaper than pay the TAF fee for tickets.

Great info. You sound like you know your shite soo I'll take your advice. Being OOS sucks but I'm making a commitment to make 1 home 1 away every year.

Probably two wins for this year. The UF win at home and the one on those cousin frickers in gumpville.

Outside stadium works well except for big games like Bama - you'll usually find few sellers for those games.
