Wyoming and UCLA

by Rigger on Sep 1, 2010 7:26 AM CDT

Besides Craigslist where would be the best place to get tickets for these two games. Really wanna go to these games cause they will be last games here before I PCS to Virginia. I want to be able to get some good seats, I know the UCLA game will be a harder game to come by because of the interest!! Unfortunately I am moving to Virginia here soon and that kinda sucks cause it will be harder to watch Longhorn games!!!!

I spent a few weeks searching for UCLA tix

Ticketcity (Austin-based) is offering $25 off tickets, coupon expires today. Go to hornfans dot com for the coupon code.

Stubhub is generally the cheapest option of all the online brokers. Remember that there are additional fees associated with it; Stubhub’s fees appear higher than Ticketcity’s. With the discount, I found that Ticketcity was cheaper.

I generally avoid Craigslist when possible.

I got my tickets for UCLA off eBay; comparable price to Ticketcity with the discount, better than Stubhub. Better section too.

For UCLA, ticket prices are starting at roughly $110 for the upper NEZ or upper end sidelines. If you want a good price-point, you should be able to find tickets for lower NEZ or upper midfield at around $150. Anything cheaper than that looks like a steal, anything above is probably going rate. Wyoming is cheaper, starting at roughly $50.

On UCLA, you can also try to wait and see if Texas (gasp!) loses to Tech first. Or even closer to the date, more people will be trying to unload tickets. For Wyoming, I’d go ahead and buy now if you find a good price.

Hope this helps.

I don't always watch football, but when I do, I prefer Dos Achos. Stay thirsty, my friends.

Start Here.

The guy who started this thread is a ticket broker and a Texas fan. From what I have seen/read, he will tell you what his opinion is and can get the tickets that you need. There are a lot of questions in the thread so someone may have already addressed your concerns. Good Luck.

Also, if the PCS is due to being in the military, thank-you for your service.

So basically you

are looking for someone to sell you tickets on BON?

Sports is man's joke on God, You see, God says to man, 'I've created a universe where it seems like everything matters, where you'll have to grapple with life and death and in the end you'll die anyway, and it won't really matter.' So man says to God, 'Oh, yeah? Within your universe we're going to create a sub-universe called sports, one that absolutely doesn't matter, and we'll follow everything that happens in it as if it were life and death.'" - Sam Kellerman

So basically...

I was asking a simple question, because I knew there had to be a better way then craigslist. I was just looking for some other ideas. I am not looking to buy tickets here!!! Not sure if what I did was such a big deal. Sometimes google just shows the most popular sites and such, and I just wanted other ideas.

Sometimes google just shows the most popular sites and such,

Worse than that, when looking for a product on google, you first get sponsored ads, followed by about 5 pages worth of links to sites that are essentially propaganda generated by the company that sells that product. Its really difficult to find simple, third party information.

Google is becoming less and less reliable for such matters.

The 2nd link was stubhub and the third link was ticketcity. It’s really not rocket science.

Not directly related to your question

but if you’re concerned about being able to watch the Horns on TV when you move out of Texas, look into the AT&T U-verse service – they have a sports package that’s just a little more extra per month and you get every FoxSports for every region, all the ESPNs, etc. We just got it a month ago (I’m in the Midwest), and it’s great. I’ll be able to watch all the games this season and I love it. I promise I don’t work for them. :-) It’s totally worth it.

Never ask a man if he's from Texas. If he is, he'll tell you soon enough. If he's not, don't embarrass him.
