If you are making a cross country trip or something similar that involves hotels etc. you can't count on getting tickets in the last 24 hours. Don’t listen to any of these guys. Buy the ticket in whatever time frame makes you comfortable. Now is probably early, if the price drops closer it gets, just pull the trigger. Take the stress out of it. Quote

They give something to look forward to, and I always have a great time. However, they only last a few hours, and typically I don’t remember much. Once the cost reaches this point, it’s impossible for me to justify. There are too many other ways to spend that much. 1 1 Quote

I was surprised by the number of Cardinals fans I saw at the opener, and I mentioned it to some of them. They all basically said “Have you seen how friggin’ hot it is where we live? It’ll kill ya! We saw Buffalo on the schedule and that sounded good, so here we are!” 🤣 Quote

They thought they were trading the frying pan for an ice bath coming to “Buffalo”. We were all sweating, but I TOTALLY get it. I guess Bills fans attend in droves in Miami in the winter, even when we stuck, for similar reasons. Quote

Many of the Vikes fans i met came down from Canada. They must have the second largest fan base up there behind the Bills! The other was sadly Bengals fans taking over the joint for the playoff debacle. That was awful. Quote

Guess I am just weird like that. Then you'll pay more. There are thousands of tickets still available for that game. There will be hundreds more when people decide they don't feel like going the week or two before because who knows why. This is a game season ticket holders will list their tickets for a high vaalue price toward the game because the saints don't travel well but maybe they'll get lucky and someone will pay them double the cost. If it's the Steelers, browns, packers, or teams that travel STH will list higher than that in hopes of going. But the Saints game will likely be no interest and full of regular STH. You could get lower bowl inside the 35's for less than $160 with a good deal and potentially under $120 hours before kickoff. 7 hours ago, boyst said: you're buying way too early. buy as late as 20 minutes into the game. For those that don't think I'm serious. StubHub sells 30 minutes after the event begins. An algorithm drops the price of the tickets every 30 seconds. A $300 ticket at kickoff will be $60 at 25 minutes. 1 Quote

That's $435 for a single ticket for a non-flashy opponent. This must be the perfect storm of great team plus the final season at the stadium and everyone wants to attend a game. Otherwise just wow. Ha ha wait till next year my friend. That will be pocket change. First. There is now only going to be 60k seats vs 73k seats. So supply and demand will drive those prices higher. Plus an increase for the new stadium plus ticket owners building in the price of their psl into the ticket price plus general inflation and you will see how many people will be loving Pegula. He increases his net worth by billions while screwing New York State and the fans. Oh. And no dome so freezing temperatures and snow will still be there. 1 Quote

Cheektowaga Chad Posted August 13 Posted August 13 Right now is the absolute height of excitement and prices reflect that my opinion is wait until right after week 1, once people get their fix of a game tickets will start moving down in price Quote
RichStadiumGuy Posted August 13 Posted August 13 You guys whining about the weather in the fall are nuts! My birthday is in the second week of November and for as far back as I can remember over these 70 some years I've been around the weather has historically been pretty much nice during the first half of November. I've relocated some snow on Halloween more than once and then cooked out on the patio just a few days later! Other than a few unpredictable short-lived storms over the years the REAL crappy weather that's here to hang around for a while doesn't arrive until mid to late December. Quote

I had decided not to go to this game a few months ago when some friends bought tickets, but now may want to go with them, just get a single ticket. But, yeah, I was shocked by the prices! Thought there would be mega tickets, so lotsa cheap ones--it is New Orleans! No time right now, but scanned over the thread and saw some of the reasoning. Makes sense. Question to all--are there folks selling tickets at the game anymore? Haven't needed that in years, so don't know. And am I likely to get a ticket for 100 or so? Quote

Nope, no one selling in person outside the gates anymore. I’d say it’s unlikely to find tickets for $100 each (even in the 300s) unless you wait til riiiiiight before kickoff or even shortly after. 1 Quote

Fortunately, the last time I was there for one of those was the huge beatdown we gave them early in the season a couple years back (the Gabe Davis 98-yard special). Quote
