PowerOfDixieland 3,223 Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 5 hours ago, Planner4Hire said: With UCF buying their entire allotment, don't they have the ability to ask for more (like another block or something)? With that, I know some have speculated ticket prices will be lower, or at least, more attainable; with UCF selling all of theirs, does this line of thinking still hold true? Never been to a bowl game before, this might be my first, so I want to not over pay if I can help it. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. List price on bowl tickets is ridiculous. I've got a buddy who has been buying four Peach Bowl tickets for the last handful of years on the promise that he would have priority on CFP National Championship tickets at MBS this year (which he did not get). He called me Tuesday to offer me his tickets to our game. When he told me he paid $250 apiece I laughed. At the Outback bowl three years ago I found out that unsold tickets were not discounted or dumped and there were thousands available at the ticket window on game day. I was not going to pay face value, but there was not a glut of tickets on the street. I bit the bullet early on the Sugar Bowl last year because we traveled with our family and I wasn't going to take the chance of not being able to get 5 together. Looking at tickets on Craigslist here in Atlanta and on eBay it is looking like secondary market tickets are not going to bid up too badly. Pretty sure this game is or will be sold out, but I'm betting there will be decent tickets at below face value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AU64 10,122 Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 Technically most of these games sell out because agencies buy batches to make travel packages and such .Don't know if they get discounts or what but prices are usually all over the place from what I see....but rarely cheap.....but available.

aufan57 922 Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 I received an email today to order Peach Bowl Tickets. I was not a season ticket holder this season and did not contribute to TUF. Surprised Auburn's allotment did not sell out sooner. Was not expecting them to be available for General Public. Possibly the price at $150/ea is too high and people thinking they will get them cheaper on the secondary market, closer to New Years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We didn't sell out our allotment at the Sugar Bowl last year either. That stadium was only about 60% full. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brad_ATX 13,654 Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 For those making a weekend out of it, Cam and the Panthers play the Falcons in Atlanta the day before the Peach Bowl. Could be a cool two days of football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
