My son wants me to take him and a few friends to a Saints game for his 10th birthday...we live in Pensacola, FL a couple hours away. We have targeted the game against the Cowboys on Saturday, December 19th since the kids will be out of school the following week.

We will need to get 6 tickets...but want to have somewhat decent seats to see the game without paying a broker an arm and a leg.

Are there any good tricks to getting tickets in advance other than the usuals like EBay, StubHub, Ticket Liquidator, CheapTickets.com, etc.?

Thanks for any help!

as we talked about kids at games in another thread- for what they will get out of it, the cost, etc you might want to consider another game. Game for 6, hotel, food, travel, etc. ya probably couldn't get by under $1000

Anyone know the age at which you are required to buy a child a ticket? I've heard 5, but that seems kinda old.

I remeber it being 4 or 5. My wife and I are discussing taking our daughter to her first game. They get in free, but they have to sit in your lap unless nobody has the seat next to yours. This guys boy is in school so no freebies due to age.

After checking around I can see it will be expensive.
Is there a "best site" to buy Saints tickets anyone else has found?

For tickets neworleanssaints.com use ticket exchange, and buy now this is the cheapest it will get.

Hotel go to hotwire.com always good prices hint choose 4 star for good room anything else is risky.

Bring them Who Dats and make some noise

Thanks for some of the suggestions. Fortunately I will not need a hotel coming from Pensacola, FL...that helps.

I just wish the Cowboys were not in town!...that probably would have helped the price if it were the Texans or something!

A child 5 and under gets in free and has to sit in your lap all game unless there is an empty seat around you.
