Ticket prices

[blueisbetterthanred]

I still haven't made it to the Big House but I am trying hard to this season. A friend of mine has a kid enrolled at UM-Flint now and is checking on tix for the uos game in nov. I'm just wondering what a fair price is for these? I'm sure she will want to make a few bucks on them...

Face value is $65 I believe. 2 years ago I scalped tickets to the game and payed $250. Any amount is fair really if you can buy the tickets for face then you are a lucky man.

[rickyleach]

the only fair price is face value, and tickets you buy at the end of august or beginning of sept, could be both great value or a total ripoff depending on how the season goes. atleast as far as the ohio state game goes, and for the other games .i would just go to the game ,and buy the tickets ,from someone selling around the stadium, i have seen people get rid of them for 10 per ticket just before kickoff.. especially the games like app/state or ball/state eastern etc..

Yeah, the best I've found for that game so far is $250 a piece. Pretty steep for a football game.

Buckeyes ticketes were almost face value from a scalper till 2003 - now they are insane. I'm sort of surprised that ticketes are that high for Michigan games based on the size of the stadium and the record the last two years. That is not a slam on the program but I can understand high prices when a team is winning. You would think that you should be able to get into the Big House for a reasonable amount of money.

That's one of the differences between schools/programs nutball. UM fans and alumni have jobs, money and can afford tickets. tuos fans are loser scums without jobs and money.

Now pull yer mouth away from tressy's wanker and think before you post something.

Isn't it sort of silly for a fan of a program that is losing money to scrutinize the business practices of a program that is making money?

Look closely at your fans - scalpers couldn't sell tickets above face value until the program won an NC? Sounds like you have a bunch of front runners down in Columbus...

With the auto industry doing so well - we will see how tickets sell for the Wolverines, Red Wings, Pistons, Lions and Spartans sell in the next year or so.

[rickyleach]

oh your right nut , columbus is another world away from the detroit area so c/bus shouldnt be affected if the big3 falls apart, i mean your like in another country , that must explain your lack of education and being the retard that we all know you are..thanks for being honest though

I am very concerned that tUOS athletics is losing money. This just can not be allowed to happen. I ask all of you to join me in writing OSU President E. Gordon Gee and demand that Tressel's salary be capped at $50,000. In all good conscience, how can they continue to pay him an exorbitant salary when he blows games to Florida, LSU, USC, Penn. State, and Texas? Cap Tressel's salary NOW. Save tUOS athletic program. It's the patriotic thing to do.

[blueisbetterthanred]

Cool guys thanks for the info. Hopefully they come through!

[RichRodriguez]

depends on both teams records. for sideline seats expect to pay $300-400 each for OSU

[RealwomenwearMaizeNBlue]

I bought mine from www.mgoblue.com last year - they were $50 a piece - which I believe is face value. They were going cheaper than that on Ebay though.

If you don't care what game you go to and your just looking for a game, I would go to Delaware State or Eastern Michigan, stand out in front of Pioneer High, and you'll get tickets given to you for at worst $5. For Ohio State, I would look for around $100-150, if the records are close to where say O$U could go to the National Champioship game, double them. If you would pay face value for them ($50), I could probably get you four to six tickets one or two rows off of the enzone for one of those two games

the other big reason they don't scalp tickets at Michgian is because it is agianst the law to do so. They just inforce it rarely there
