Rupp ticket question

[JonathanW_rivals]

What kind of availability and prices likely can be had outside of Rupp from scalpers for a Saturday UK game in Feb?

Given that it's an 8+ hour drive, I wouldn't take the chance on scalpers unless it's a pretty sure thing.

I bought some from a scalper last week and I would say that you would have no problem for a February game, however don't wait till last game of season I would say a lot of these guys playing for last time in rupp will cause ticket prices to soar and availability to be sparse, it will cost 2-300 to get a good lower.

I am talking 8-10 rows up on side court, maybe I overpaid but after a 4 hour drive I wasn't going to quibble and I had to wait till hour before game time to get the lowers.
