saints @ panthers tickets resale is second highest in the league this week

[PghPanther]

If Panther take care of business on Sunday............it will be the Atlanta game that determines whether we are a wild card or number 2 seed............even the possibility a number one seed.

 

Other than fans in Atlanta wanting to see their team spoil that opportunity for the Panthers............this should be their lowest attendance of the year..........and the lack of demand and cheap ticket prices coupled with the game closer to Charlotte than any other would give Panther fans a very good chance to create a home field advantage in another stadium for the first time in their franchise................

I haven't been to a game since Panthers @Texans in 2011. Sat 4 rows behind the Panthers bench. Paid about $220/per about 6 weeks prior.

 

Who are Panther players who interact with the crowd these days. In Houston it was 70% Shockey and 30% Smitty. Shockey was funny as hell to the Texans fans who were yelling at him. He seemed to really feed off it then entire game.

 

On occasion, Smitty still grabs a hat and sharpie near the end of a game, and gives it to a kid. 

 

There is not one player that stands out and does it much more than others.  The backups and offense often turn to the crowd waving their arms to get make it louder.  When the D makes a big stop, they will briefly interact with the fans when coming to the bench.  The best was when CJ got a turnover and brought the ball back to the bench before throwing it in the stands.  Went about 15 rows into the stands.  A 60+ year old guy caught it ... that was pretty cool. 

 

I don't see much interaction from the offense ... but I am in sec 131 behind the defense.

Operation pack da bank.

Wonder if any scalpers will be out?

[panfanman]

I hate resale because it gives Saints fans the opportunity to pack our house. But I hope I can do the same for the last game in Atlanta.

Looked at ticketexchange this morning.  Prices are getting back to 'normal'.  Decent lower level for low $200s and upper level for less than $150.  Now is the time to buy if you don't have tickets yet.

Stop being cheap. Buy your ticket. Go. Be a fan. Scream your lungs out.

[Brooklyn Bully]

Yeah, I just noticed this thread was titled "resale". I wonder how many non-fans sold their tickets for mad profit to Saints fans? Sad.

Funny thing is, its a federal crime to sell any sporting event tickets more than $10 over face value.

In the US, ticket scalping is the practice of buying and reselling event tickets by private citizens, rather than by the sponsoring venue or organization, usually at a much higher price than their face value. Laws about ticket scalping vary by state, and there is no federal law that prohibits the practice. http://www.wisegeek.org/is-ticket-scalping-illegal.htm

North Carolina Regulates (strong)

NCGS § 14‑344.1 Internet resellers may sell tickets above face value without a cap price unless they are prohibited from doing by the venue

I believe the NFL only prohibits scalping of tickets by NFL personnel, not private citizens, as evidenced by the Mike Tice case.

I buy 98% of my tickets through scalpers,so God bless them,but if a scalper tries to sell me a fake ticket,may he rot in hell!

I've heard they are going below face around town. Everyone trying to cash in flooded the market.

Maybe the laws have changed since 2009 when I had to do a research paper on this topic. But the internet resellers most likely can get away due to the location of the website and or the lack of laws covering reselling over the internet.

 

I will say this anyone buying a $50 ticket for $150-$200 and up is just an idiot.Then you add the costs of parking Food drinks merchandise and so forth, that one game could cost you up towards $600-$1000. Not worth it no matter who is playing. Bu then again that is my opinion. I use to go to every home game until I was sick of driving 3-4 hours and paying upwards of $500 every game. Happier sitting at home with my home made Hot wings, nachos and a case of Michelob Ultra on my Big screen.
