Well this sucks

[TxJudsonRocketTx]

I click the 'Get Tickets' button exactly at 12 on ticketmaster, put in the request for 2 tickets and 5 seconds later theyre already sold out. Fuck ticketmaster and ticket brokers.

[MadDog73]

Pretty shitty.

A lottery system would be better than this!

[Kori Ellis]

This happens every Finals. And then they release more tickets later as the games approach.

[sprrs]

same here....ridiculous

[Horry For 3!]

Yeah. Right when I clicked get tickets when it turned 12 and I was even tryin to get $30 tickets, it was all gone.

[johnpaulwall21]

same here i went right at 12 and less than 30 seconds later those sons of bitches were sold out.

Well that's usually how it works in the playoffs - on gameday or the day before they release more tickets.

[MadDog73]

Of course, StubHub has plenty...

Got $$$$?

[MajorMike]

You can still click on the 'buy from fans' link to buy from ticketholders.

[RonMexico]

Nothing sucks as much as the stupid Hawks somehow getting the fucking 3rd pick... we Suns fans never should have angered Stern...

damn thats evil, dont tell me they up the cost?

[Ginofan]

They don't ever release all of the tickets at one time. You just have to keep checking back at various times before game time.

[Mt.Spur]

*sigh*
once again finals and no tickets :(

[101A]

Section 8, row 11.

Look it up and cry.

I've got mine.

[CubanMustGo]

I got one for game 2 !!!! Sec 112 Row 12. OK it's not the greatest seat in the house but it's the friggin NBA Finals Baby!!

I kept trying, apparently someone must have timed out. Started at noon and just kept pinging away until I got in.

[Kori Ellis]

No, they don't.

They just have some tickets set aside for various things and if those things don't happen, then they release the tickets to the public.

[exstatic]

I got a singleton upstairs for game one. I think they release them in dribs and drabs. I searched for singles and doubles for 3-4 minutes and hit one finally.

The exstatic mojo will be workin' in da House. I'm 2-0 in Finals Game Ones attended. :smokin

None for sale.

That's an awesome seat actually.

EXACTLY.

They will definitely release some on gameday, too. That's how I got tix in 2003 AND 2005. Start trying after 4 PM.

[spursfan09]

booo!!! i tried exactly at 12!

[veronicamae]

this would be due to only 500 tickets being available.

it's always so lovely of them to sell everything to season ticket holders and hold back tickets for the players families, etc.

[ploto]

Check especially the day of the game-- right at 8:00 and also in the afternoon. Your best bet always is to check for singles while everyone else is checking for pairs.

[exstatic]

OK, if you go in there, search ONE TIME and give up, you're never going to get fucking tickets. KEEP TRYING.

[ploto]

That's an awesome seat actually.
Perfect view of LeBron.

Well, I have no problem with that. Season ticket holders spend a LOT of money.

I just wish there was a better system to distribute the 500 tickets to fans, and not scalpers.

[Kori Ellis]

Yeah I remember in 2005 like 100 people on the forum got them around 4pm on gameday.

[ploto]

I know someone who got one on row 6 that afternoon.

[veronicamae]

i'll be checking regularly from now through game day, and on ebay.

i only sat out game 2 in '05 (due to $$), i shall not miss out this time either.

[Mt.Spur]

damn stub hub has at least 100 tix ugh

[RonMexico]

The Spurs are in the Finals?

[CubanMustGo]

damn stub hub has at least 100 tix ugh

Yeah, glad I paid $179 instead of the $525 they are asking. Crikey!

[veronicamae]

well actually i had season tickets, but the only way to buy the finals tickets was to spend ANOTHER $800 per seat to buy tickets for all 16 games of the playoffs, and that's just not feasible. having season tickets was pointless without having a ton of extra cash handy. :bang

[mrsmaalox]

No, they don't.

They just have some tickets set aside for various things and if those things don't happen, then they release the tickets to the public.
So the TM tix price will be the regular prices right? So on the "buy from fans" they are allowed to up the price?

[Kori Ellis]

So on the "buy from fans" they are allowed to up the price?

Yes, they can.

[SpursWoman]

Well that's usually how it works in the playoffs - on gameday or the day before they release more tickets.


In 2003, that's how I ended up getting 3 lower-level tickets at face value through Ticketmaster. I kept trying all day for 2 tickets for game 6 ... and I accidently typed in 3 instead of 2, and I got some.

So try for odd numbers, too....if you end up with an extra, you'll have no problem finding a taker. :)

[BlackFlagg]

No, they don't.

They just have some tickets set aside for various things and if those things don't happen, then they release the tickets to the public.

Yeah, a certain number of comp tickets are set aside for those friends/members of the organization -- just like concerts. The ones that aren't claimed go on sale the day of the event. The good news is, they're almost always great seats!

[td4mvp21]

I can't afford tickets, even in the "nose-bleed" seats. :pctoss :lol

[CubanMustGo]

Someone posted a site that lets you see the view from your seats a while back .. tried Google and can't find it. My first time to the AT&T so if anyone could either post that site again or PM me with it, I'd appreciate it.

[LavaLamp]

same here i went right at 12 and less than 30 seconds later those sons of bitches were sold out.


Well, funny that, I ordered 2 tickets and it gave me 2,000. (jk)

[CubanMustGo]

Found it, sorry for the false alarm:

http://www.seats3d.com/nba/san_antonio_spurs/

Yeah, Kori, that is a pretty nice seat. :tu

[word]

spurstickets.com has ticks available.

[ballhog]

Try Stubhub.com. Good luck.

[SpursIndonesia]

Your team still will get their future 1st # pick, right ? Without any restriction starting from next year ??
