Amazing how all the complainers about wanting a good seat for cheap at the dude didn't exist this year .... that's why there will never, ever, be GA grandstand seats. They don't pay for themselves.

Exactly, Kinda makes sense doesn't it. Logical.
The complainers are a VERY small minority. They're the people who want prime/premium seats only to the biggest series as well as regionals and Supers but they want them for prices that you pay for midweeks against UNA. But the kicker is they only want those when we are good. There were Sunday games this year, Florida and Tennessee come to mind, where you couldn't give away Triple Crown Club passes. Trust me, I tried. I'll take the complaining and moaning over the stadium though, because that means we're good.
All points spot on!!Quote:

Well I can't speak for all but a lot do. And they come at a hefty price. And if your one that's willing to pay kudos. It's the ones that want a great seat at a great price whenever they want it that get me going.... sorry you live 4 hours away. Etc.Quote:

Pretty much nailed it.Quote:

I'm not going to pay big money for seats. I'll just read about the games in the morning and afternoon news papers in the sports sections.

Most fans I know use StubHub or SeatGeek.Quote:

Most of what I saw on there were GA and SRO at super inflated prices and chairbacks wanting to pay for their season tickets in one weekend. Maybe I wasn't quick enough to get the decent priced ones.Quote:

I have seen that as well. Sometimes I can sit in chairbacks at a reasonable price- often times not.Quote:

What I do appreciate is the opportunity to get the tickets. Whether that's at my price point for what I want to spend is another matter.
I think the go/no go decision is last minute for many fans. For the final game against UT, early in the week i put out feelers for chair back tickets, but didn't much response until Thursday, then got a flood of offers of tickets on Friday and Saturday.Quote:

State has an easy system, but apparently it’s not well-known. I go to my account, hit “Transfer Tickets”, and it takes me to the page with all my tickets, club passes, and parking passes. I select everything I want to transfer, enter the phone or email of the person, and it’s done. I get an email with confirmation of acceptance of the transfer. I think we had MSU fans in our seats for every game we couldn’t attend. I wold rather burn $100 than have my tickets bought by opposing fans on Stubhub etc.Quote:
