SEC Tournament ticket question

[Jpskaggs342002]

I'm going down for the first time. I know the price will probably vary the deeper we get into the Tournament....but does anyone know a ballpark figure on what I could expect to pay for single game UK tickets just outside Bridgestone? Thank you very much in advance.

I went in 2010 and they wanted over $300 for a UK game at half time.

Yeah the scalper a want a lot usually. Wife and I went last year planning to buy from scampers. Asking $200 per ticket. Sometimes more. Sometimes a little less. We ended up at the bar next door for all the games. Still a great time.

I also caution you, I believe there were more fake tickets last year than real ones on the street. Best bet is either StubHub or finding a losing team as they exit the arena. But even that is tough due to scalpers being inside the arena buying those tickets too

Last year was ridiculous due to the undefeated streak, but I went to all three games. Think I ended up dropping like $1k for the weekend including hotel room, food and tickets. So probably averaged between $200-$300/ticket.

This is why Nashville is a money pit.
Torture most fans with ridiculous prices on everything from food and lodging to tickets and concessions because the demand is >>>>>> supply.
I know lots of people that went to Atlanta, but cannot go to Nashville. I'm talking REAL fans.

Please help all of us to understand just what a Real fan is.

who is 'us'?
U all family?

I'm talking about FANS that go to watch and scream. Not go to an event because it's a social thing. There is a remarkable difference.

I'm Guessing he is talking about the fans that save all year and still can't afford to pay those prices for lodging and tix.

Look I'm a police officer in lex and can't afford those prices either. But I do what I can. I'm not going to Nashville this year, but I'll be there next time. Even if it's just at the bar.

Your guessing is incorrect.
I'm talking about people that aren't willing to buy into the 'money pit' strategy that the SEC has implemented. I can afford to go, but I choose to not fight the mess that is Nashville.
