When do single game tickets go on sale?

[MI21]

Some info from today's presale:

1. Only upper level seats available for sale.

2. Tickets available for all games before the RRT.

3. Four price levels ranging from $11-52 for most games.

4. Seven games with premium pricing:

Oct 28 (Mavs): $70-150
Dec 12 (Lakers); $40-80
Dec 22 (Clippers): $50-80
Dec 25 (OKC): $50-80
Jan 23 (Lakers): $45-80
Jan 31 (Clippers): $50-80
Feb 6 (Heat): $25-75

Did they mention when lower levels will go on sale at all?

I've had someone from the Spurs offer me up "box" seats in section 10, $325 per ticket. I'm told that is quite a good price but amazingly, box seats in Australia and in USA mean two different things. In Australia, box seats genuinely come with food and alcohol, the Spurs man says they are just slightly larger and more comfortable seats.

I was hoping if I was going to spend that much I would be right near the bench..but I'm thinking they may be the tickets I'll just take to get it over and done with.

Anyone have any experience sitting in those types of seats?

If they're what I think they are, then they're about the only type of seat I've never had for a Spurs game. They're not available for sale and never show up on the secondary market. They should also be great seats. There is a section of box seats between the charter level seats and the rest of the lower bowl. Boxes 9, 10, and 11 are directly above Section 6, which is the section directly behind the Spurs bench. RC Buford and other FO types sit in Box 9. I imagine that boxes 10 and 11 are also controlled by the team. The seats are very large and have a long table in front of them for drinks and food. I'm fairly certain that wait service is available from those seats. If not, you have access to the charter level concessions which are far superior to the concessions in the rest of the arena.

I have a pdf with a detailed seat map that goes down to individual seat level. Send me a PM with an email address if you want me to send you a copy. It could be very useful to have on hand for your talks with the sales rep.

In short, $325 would be a very good price for the seats I described. You just have to confirm what they are.

Oh, no word about when lower level will be available.

Lower level seats are sold out unless you go to stubhub where the prices are jacked up!

Sold out is not the same as not yet available for sale. At the very least, some single seats in the lower bowl are likely to be available when general ticket sales begin on Friday. Look at the seats available for the preseason games to see what I'm talking about.

Those prices were for the STH's only... prices on the presale today were MUCH higher. For example, Dallas opener... seats a STH paid ~$35 for sold for $92 in the STH presale... are selling for $208 today. Take your list and almost double it for the general public.

Spurs also premium priced the Indiana and Sacramento games the days before and after Thanksgiving. Houston on the 28th is premium priced as well. The Clippers games are also priced differently with the Saturday game costing more than the Monday game. Dynamic pricing in FULL effect - wouldn't be shocked to see prices via Ticketmaster/the Spurs go up and down as the season goes on as it did last regular season and playoffs.

No doubt that the Spurs are making every effort to cash in on the team's recent success. There have been several other changes beyond pricing that are clearly designed to maximize revenues.

Joe is working behind the scenes, says he'll probably have to buy back a season ticket holder's tickets who can't make the game for whatever reason.

Just got tickets to opening night in Section 225!

I am also planning to travel from Asia to San Antonio in Feb / Mar 15 to see 1 to 2 SPURS game in person before TD retires. I checked the game against Heat on Feb 6 and it seems not many seats in section 101-128 are available. Will the single game tickets be sold out quickly? Any website for resale of SPURS single game ticket?

Besides, I don't drive and wonder whether there are any public transports from AT&T center to downtown still available after SPURS game end at night. If not, any recommendation for hotels near AT&T center which is within walking distance? I noted that there are hotels like Travelodge or Day Inn but the comments on these hotels are not too good.

Many thanks in advance.

I'm a season ticket holder. We got an email stating that lower level seats won't be available for purchase through the Spurs/Pre-sale.

However, if you're looking for a single game ticket, plenty of season ticket holders will be selling their tickets through ticket exchange or other ticket companies, such as stub-hub will too. Since you're looking for a single game ticket, the price on that may be cheaper if you find someone who is willing to unload it because they or someone else they got tickets with can't attend. As the season progresses, you will be able to find plenty.

In regards to transportation to and from the AT&T Center, it may be tough. You may have to call a cab after the game, but being precise as to where you will be waiting for it can be difficult, since the AT&T is a large place. Traffic may also be a concern, but it usually flows easily. Additionally, people may also steal your cab.

There are some places around the AT&T Center, but the reviews you have been coming across are more than likely correct. The area is not the best nor the safest.
