4k for 2 seats is tough to pull the trigger on..


if you want it bad enough, you'll take it. That's what I had to do. $2400/seat in the club. wanted something cheaper, but I wasn't passing again.

although i could probably make half of that back for the colts game


my seat mate is having a kid around this game, so we are planning on selling our tickets.

what do you think you could make on a seat with the face value of $298?

stub hub has some seats close to my section going for $345 and someone else asking $600 for the Indy game.

Long way to go for the market to determine what the price for that game will be.

$25 seats are the bomb - it's really hard to recoup your money on $200 tickets bc of diminishing returns. The 2 preseason games KILL you.

yeah, thats what I'm worried about. Who is going to pay 300 bucks for a preseason game.

what's the market say for club seats in the preseason?

I have a feeling I'll have to give them away.

Just got my call. All they have left is Plaza Level seats for $2,980 per seat. Still thinking it over as to if I can pull the trigger on 6 grand for two seats!




Yea I def might have passed if that was all they had left when I got the call. I'm hoping I can at least make my money back for the price of one seat (1900) by selling tickets on ticket exchange for games I can't make it to. I live in Lafayette and i have LSU season tix so I'm sure the wife will want to pass on going to NO for one of the weekends

Anyone else get their name chosen yesterday (or recently)??


They called me and tried to offer me $1900 tickets but that's out of my price range.

Off topic, but how do you know where you are on the waiting list?

I just received my call also for tickets. My choices are section 142 and section 311 for 2 tickets each. They're both the same price ($2980 ea) and not sure which would be the better option. Both of them were near the top of the sections, and I don't know how much that overhang comes into play. Does anyone have experience in those 2 sections?

I should have mentioned that I had been waiting since 2007 also. I was pretty surprised to get the message.

I called yesterday after I got an email. They offered me Section 113, 115, and 143. $2980/seat was too much for me to front. They also had some other sections available in the lowers. They also have Loge Club Sideline which are $2400/seat. I was on the waiting list since 2006 but I just moved so I would probably only make it to a couple of games and have to sell the rest. Too much trouble.
