I am on a budget next weekend. Do I have a realistic shot of getting close to face value from ticket scalpers?

Try facebook, but I highly doubt it. Student tickets for UNT were going for $40.

My neighbor just learned that I have season tickets and may not be able to attend the Miami game next week. He offered me $225 for the pair and I just laughed at him and told him to look me up when he when he wakes up from his crack high.

Hang around the stadium and you might get lucky and get a pair at face ($77 each) or right around there right after kickoff.

Well I wouldn't mind paying 100 or 110 but I really don't want to go much higher than that. I am a working man you know.

Well, I've got 4 of us going, and I'm crossing my fingers that I will find some tickets

I got an extra one (student) for my dad for $90 from a friend. With the upgrade to sit in the student section, it'll be in the $120'ish range.

All the other listings on the student's virtual marketplace are soaring above $150.

If you are willing to wait until 10:30-10:45 on Saturday you may get below face....

I don't mind waiting till even after kickoff if it saves me a bit of cash.

You know the first OU game I saw in person was 1985 Miami.

you know there are going to be TONS of people waiting until after kick off. i was going to do the same thing but my sister wanted to have tickets in hand before she came down from KC. i ended up paying $285 for a pair on ebay.

Good luck as I don't think you will have much luck finding a good seat for face value at all. If you can get a good seat for 100 bucks I would jump all over it.

0.0 Mr. Blutarsky.

I saw about 3 people selling tix Sat. We asked one of them just out of curiosity and they were going for $75/ea for nosebleed south end zone.

Miami will be $150 to get in the building.

My bet is......there will be very few tickets available.....very little time to get hammered before the game.......I saw no less than 5 people "passed out" BEFORE the game in that south end zone area. You people need to re-evaluate your priorites or go to drinking school.

Good luck finding bargain tickets, but even if you cant, you all should still come just to enjoy the Norman game day experience. Its lots of fun outside the gates too. I've only been once, but Soonerfans.com has a tailgate. :)

You can ALWAYS find tickets around face or lower at or just after KO. 'Cept maybe '00 NU.

You guys should try talking me out of going to the OU Texas game.

Why do you say? Because I have never been to an OU away game that we won :(.

**I am on a budget next weekend. Do I have a realistic shot of getting close to face value from ticket scalpers?**
NO, but it happens. This game reminds me of the Bama game. My bud and I were hopeful, but resigned, after scouring the corners and heading for the car to watch on the home big screen. Still holding hope against hope, I kept the fingers in the air as we walked. Had to pause to let a sparkling new Expedition park w/4 peoples inside. Driver motioned me over, asks if I was a scalper. Thought better than to show him my sooner underwear, I say just a fan. He sold us their extra two, near the 50, FOR FACE. Knock me over, for sure. He say he better see our butts in the seats, ........he did.......
