Looking into tickets for Premier League games and noticed that there are secondary market tickets from various ticket brokers for the Arsenal-Man City game, which would be expensive, but phenomenal to see. (I've dreamed of going to an Arsenal game since reading Fever Pitch--have toured Emirates, but never been to a game.)

 

Some questions for our UK Bills fans friends, if they don't mind.

 

I seem to recall someone saying that the folks at Emirates frown on scalped tickets to the point of not letting people in with them. Am I misremembering that? Or are ticket brokers common/allowed in the UK? Any particular ones to consider or avoid?

 

And finally, is there a chance this game gets moved time/place-wise because it's a huge game? If moved, would it be just later that night or possibly go another day? I'd hate to shell out and then not be able to go.

 

Many thanks in advance....

Just booked flight and hotel. All I need now is one of those elusive game tickets! 

 

At the very least I’ll get my first trip to London, so how bad could it be?    

 

 


We’ll make sure you get a ticket 👍

I’d say just be careful. Commons sense will prevail. StubHub is a common ticket re-sales market. Tickets for this game will be like rocking horse ***** considering last season. 
 

Gunner has mentioned in an earlier post he’s expecting the Arsenal v Man City game to be moved from the 3pm Saturday spot it’s currently in. However, it may be the case the powers that be might not want an NFL game and a big crowd at the Emirates in the same day. 
 

Once the TV fixtures for that period of the season are announced I’ll let

you know 👍

Any thoughts as to when the best time will be to purchase tickets on the secondary markets (such as StubHub) (i.e., now or closer to the date of the game)?


Closer to game will be cheaper. Now will guarantee there are tickets available. 
 

I mentioned in a previous post I know a good Facebook page selling unwanted season tickets for the game at face value. I can PM you the name of it if you want to go down that route.

This is a good question. Having said that, after booking the flight and hotel, I realize that if I have to spend a couple hundred more than I’d like for a ticket, it’s just one more drop in the bucket. I’ll probably overpay early just to have some peace of mind. 

 

Also, a great seat would be nice, but ANY seat will do just fine. We went to a Super Bowl (Minneapolis) and had almost the worst seats in the house. Second from the top row in the end zone. I saw the same game everyone else did, and I checked a SB game off the bucket list. Where I sat is not what I regret about that game!

Is there an official TwoBillsDrive tailgate for the London Game?  Or has anyone seen any options other than this one:

 

ALL-INCLUSIVE TAILGATE - Access to Our ALL-INCLUSIVE Tailgate Party just steps from Tottenham Stadium hosted by Andre Reed!!!

 

I'm curious to see where this tailgate is considering there isn't a lot of parking or open space around the stadium, etc.

 

Update: Actually, I don't even know if this tailgate is an option unless you buy one of their packages.

Presale was a disaster!! I got in and then just error messages

 

It doesn't start for 7 more minutes.  They even tell you to not log in early, or you will need to log out and start over again

Well, that was a ***** joke.  The only section they had available for "priority" season ticket holders were in the upper endzones.  Everything else was random single tickets.

 

The communication, execution, and entire process for this game has been a joke.  The true prioritized were those buying vacation packages or premiere packages.

 

***** them

Yep, complete freaking cluster. What a mess the whole way round. 

 

This is an NFL operation and completely out of the Bills hands, by why we as season ticket holders take it up the rear is beyond me. 

 

Just awful.

I even got back in, had tickets selected...then it kicked me out saying i was a bot. Once i confirmed was not, tickets had magically disappeared. Complete screw job by the NFL. And why even bother on Thursday if that was all the tickets they had for "exclusive ST access"

Where were the tickets you had in your cart?  Just curious if you found anything not upper endzone

Upper end zone, but like row 4 or so..92 pounds...never got to a cart..i had added the tickets...then the bot thing came out. From what i saw, less than 1K tickets available for sure, looked more like a couple hundred , all in that upper end zone section

Mine started at 10 am est

yea, part of the screw up...it put you in the waiting room, then put you in Que at 10...then kicked you right out at 10 as actual sale did not start still 10;30. Everyone did the same thing, then had to click that link in the email at exactly 10:30 put you right into buying tickets
