Plan B in Glendale?

[andyh64000]

My wife and I are definitely going to Phoenix for the Super Bowl but I am not going to pay $4500 each for a top deck corner seat. Is there a good place to watch the game in the area in case ticket prices don't come down?

I know of a group going to Skeptical Chemist....it is a 12s bar.

WestGate district right next to the stadium. Then you can look for tickets up til almost kickoff and still catch the game right there next to the stadium, sure it will be packed too.

 

[Seahawkfan80]

There are about a half dozen to dozen bars there. I think at McFaddens it is $1000 for a table to sit and watch the game. Not sure if there is a cover charge to get in to the other locations too. Just to be aware tho.

What about a place just to drink Fri and sat night?

$1000 for a table?!? For reals? :shock: I would hope that it comes with a 'happy ending', at least! :mrgreen:

Yup...I dont think you can guarantee a happy ending. Wasted grain has the same situation downtown Scottsdale in the Old Town area. Special couches booths etc. 950 to 1000 or more and part of it is for foods. I am not sure if the tables at McFaddens were with food or food and drink were extra with a minimum purchase of 150 or so. I dont know. :shock:

So if I take a shot at cash at the stadium for some last minute seats the nearby bars have predatory pricing?

 

[Seahawkfan80]

Just that one that I KNOW of. There are about half a dozen or more in that little strip mall.

I'd be leary as there is little to know way to verify actual tickets in person paying cash.

Dom, I would consider the Skeptical Chemist unless you want to do some micro brews. There are a few of them around. I went to the one near my motel the first night in with the 2 I went to the game with. Paulos or some such in a strip mall on Scottsdale road and Mcdowall. I seem to think there are a few bars in the local areas. and their Local Trolley is easy access to most areas. Remember you are in Mariposa County..Sherriff Joe Arpaio territory.

I think as far as tickets, you could probably bring the person with you that has the tickets until you get to the ticket check station and then if the ticket fails....well, that is up to you....

And with security, unless he walks with you to enter, 30 minutes to enter and could be long Gone. I'd hang out at the stub hub pick up centre or tic exchange etc.

I would like to watch at Westgate to take in the atmosphere but I'm concerned about being shut out on a place to watch the game if every place starts charging the crazy prices just for tables. I'm all for opening my wallet if I can't get into the game but $900 a table is a little much. We will be at McFaddens on Saturday so hopefully we can get it figured out then since there is very little information on line about Super Bowl sunday on Westgates web site. If we don't make it to the stadium we will try the Skeptical Chemyst (I know it will be packed) but I'm ok with a Buffalo Wild Wings, I just want to be with other Hawk fans after making the trip down.
