Amen to that one - I was trying to score single tickets for family and friends...they would have gone to them at Face Value.....kind of makes me afraid that there may be some empty seats as I think that it is harder to move singles.

wait until later in the week...they will get cheaper. I looked into tickets on craigslist 4 tickets in the endzone for $650...thought it was $650 for all 4, turned out he wanted $650 a piece...not great seating either. He contacted me Sunday morning wanting to sell them for almost face value...too late! So I bet the seats were empty.

Anyone that had season tickets and is trying to sell them, if this is indeed the case, needs to turn in their fan card and give up their season ticket seats. How do you NOT go to the NFC championship against the Niners. This is probably the best NFC championship matchup that I can even remember.

This. Though I don't think it will be like the Saints game, but I bought my seat to the divisional game early just in case SF or GB came out here (especially since those fans travel much better than NO) and the ticket prices plummeted before kickoff. I could have sat in the lower level for less than I paid originally. Though with the rain I'm glad I didn't.

But yeah.. just wait until Friday or Saturday and I'm sure they'll come down in price.

I looked on Stub Hub. Some serious greed going on. Though I want the seats full I hope some of those people get to eat their tickets

I know this is a very polarizing topic, and I personally don't begrudge anybody making a few bucks.

There are single tickets listed for more money than some people make in a month. That seems crazy to me.

I am very thankful somebody sold me a ticket at a fair price. More than fair actually.

Some people can't travel. Some people work. Some people are trying to repay debt.

I have three tickets and was orignally planning to sell one and I dont feel a bit bad and am not close to turning in my fan card. I make round trip tickets several times a year to see games from Tokyo, and if I have a chance to defray some of the costs thats my prerogative. In the end, I didnt sell as I had someone and her husband call in the "reservation solidarity" card but , again, I wouldnt have felt bad at all. I used to give away for free quite a few regular season tickets on this board but got burned too many times and had to stop. Now, with a kid and a wife etc.. one of the conditions of still buying my tickets was a promise to my wife to more "practical" with the tickets I dont use.
