Question on Finals Tickets

[TxJudsonRocketTx]

Now IF we are to get that far, how much do tickets usually cost? I am usually only able to make it down for the parade and stuff to celebrate but this year I'd really like to go to a game. Advice on where to buy or anything would be great

[Man of Steel]

Best advice I can give on Finals tickets.

To save money--

DO NOT--

I repeat

DO NOT BUY THEM BEFORE THE GAME.


Case in point--

I used to go to brokers and even bought them on Ebay--for pretty premium prices.

I finally learned the trick that the smart fans do.

Stay where the ticket sellers are away from the Arena--ask them for tickets--

They will quote high prices.

Go away for a few minutes.

Wait until the game STARTS!

The prices on unsold tickets plummet like you would not believe.

Yes--you will miss the majority of the first quarter.

But your tickets are about 75% cheaper than what you would pay the brokers or on ebay.

Upperdeck for game 1 of the '05 Finals costed me about $65.00, I was lucky enough to get them at ticketmaster. Most of the people around me wound up paying $120-$200

Ok here's another question. Would you rather: (a) See game 2 of the NBA Finals having never been to one before, but miss the parade and rally
or (b) See another parade and rally if we are to win

Go to the game.....nothing like it. Awesome sensation.
Besides, you may just wait for a parade that never happens.

a game by far. in 05, I wasn't able to go to a game but my godparents did and they brought me back some of those thundersticks from game 2 of the finals and I still have them and they make me a little sad thinking I didn't go to that game

1. Where exactly for instance?
2. How much compared to face when all is said and done?

There are tickets for Game 5 already showing up on ebay if you don't wanna risk the ticket brokers (by the hotels) running short on goods seats....

Upper deck (sec 211) $75 for 2 tickets:

2 tix UTAH JAZZ @ SAN ANTONIO SPURS 5/30 Rd 3 GAME 5

Keep checking as we get closer to the game.
