I have 2 but the email says I have the opportunity to buy 6.

GottaRun Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 From my ticket rep - "prices will range $120-$750" Ā I'm guessing Atlanta's version of club seats will be the $750 seats?Ā Anyway, for $120 I can at least get in the door and I'll probably look around the $250 price seats as that's what I was going to be paying for Buffalo.... if we beat the Bengals... damn lot of conversation for a game we may not play.

I live about 3 hours away, and have 2 young kids with lots of weekend activities.Ā I'm ok losing some $ on the games I can't make (and paying full price for preseason games.)Ā I like knowing I can have decent seats at decent prices for the rest of the games and first crack at the playoffs as well.
