Get rich quick, State Fan

Bookmark and Share

Tickets for Saturday's ECU-N.C. State game are hot. 

Over on eBay, which had 14 auctions listed, the prices currently range from $55 to $150 per ticket. There are quite a few parking passes included in those auctions, too. The bidding is active, though, there were 24 bids on two tickets that just sold for $125 each.

Stub Hub has upper-level seats for sale for $125 and $139 each. The lower-level ones range from $177 to $499 (huh?).

N.C. State's web site lists the face value of single-game tickets at $49.

Remember, it's somehow legal to scalp tickets online but not in the parking lot. Go figure. Or go get rich, er, find enough gas money to fill up your tank for the drive from Greenville.

The above thought is smart and doesn’t require any further addition. It’s perfect thought from my side.
Easy Money

You have to think Pirate

You have to think Pirate fans are the ones paying the higher prices for the tickets. Not too many people get to celebrate Chritmas twice in one year! (a win in C-F) whether it is a big deal in 08 is irrelevant. any win against the Wolfs is a good win!

I hope this doesn't mean

I hope this doesn't mean that the whole stadium will be filled with ECU fans. Further, I find it hard to believe ECU graduates can afford $400 tickets. ;)

tempted to put my two

tempted to put my two tickets on there!!  this is not last year and its gonna be a rout!

equal time rule....

Looks like there are plenty of tickets for UNC and VT on Saturday too at Ebay (close to 64).  Selling tickets isn't limited to State fans....

 

wasn't condeming the State Fan

More like pointing out that ticket is hot. I believe that was the first sentence.
