RexIsMyDogg Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 Hi everyone! Longtime lurker, first post. I'm planning on going to the game this Sat and was wondering if anyone recommends scalping tickets. There are a bunch available on Stubhub but I don't feel like paying their bend me over fee. Anyway, just wondering if I could get some advice. Thanks everyone and I'm very excited to be part of this board. There are a lot of quality posters on here with excellent insight. BTW my Weimadors name really is Rex. Can't stiff arm you, but he's one bell of a good dog. Quote Link to comment
HskerFever73 Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 Bring $100 bill to Lincoln. You'll find a ticket for less but just in case. Quote Link to comment
Rocketsocks Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 Are you saying you want to buy tickets from scalpers? That is a terrible idea. Why would you do that? Find a fan selling their tickets and buy from them. Quote Link to comment
da skers Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 Best prices will be right before kick off. Best selection however is about an hour before. I've picked up extras pretty regularly near face value for games like this. I've gotten them for $10 right after kick off. There are a couple of guys right by the Embassy Suits that have good seats and prices. Just look for the laminated sign. At one time the ticket office still had tickets for this game. I don't know if they still do or not. Quote Link to comment
RexIsMyDogg Posted November 3, 2011 Author Share Posted November 3, 2011 ^^^^ Thanks for the advice skers. I will look for them. Quote Link to comment
The Maudfather Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 I wouldn't waste your time or money on stubhub. Like posted above, bring a bill with you, but I would imagine that you will be able to find a decent seat for ~60 maybe even less if you wait long enough. Beware the scalpers in the downtown area...I would try closer to the stadium. Good luck. Quote Link to comment
huskrplaya Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 Use husker ticket exchange on facebook Quote Link to comment
hskerholic Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 Craigslist works well! Quote Link to comment
Bacon Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 StubHub is terrible value Quote Link to comment
RexIsMyDogg Posted November 3, 2011 Author Share Posted November 3, 2011 Thanks for the awesome insight guys! I will probably just try to get em right before kickoffs. When i lived in St. Louis for 4 years, I never once purchased for Cards games online. Got one every game I went to after the 1st inning started and it was great value. Will probably have to miss the Tunnel Walk, but no biggie. Quote Link to comment
dergibog Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 There are still tickets available at the box office Knappic posted a link in a previous post. I just checked at 3:00 PM thursday and could have picked up a ticket link to knappic's post link to ticket office Quote Link to comment
Lyons in the Sea of Red. Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 I have seen students selling their ticket to this game for 10 bucks. Go to husker ticket exchange on facebook and you will have no trouble finding one. $10+$49 validation fee=$59=cheaper than face value. plus sitting in the student section is awesome. Just make sure you get there somewhat early. Quote Link to comment

Just make sure you get there somewhat early. Relatively minor but important distinction. Sitting is allowed for those about to pass out and halftime. Quote Link to comment
