Builder 86 Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 I looked at a couple of sites and found Ticket City to have the lowest prices for tickets. Even lower than the ChikFilet Bowl Office. But now I am now wondering if there will be a lack of interest and see prices drop like a rock. I am saying they will. Not certain the MBS will reach near capacity for this thriller.

ShocksMyBrain 8,406 Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 I bet the game sells out and a lot of AU fans get Peach Bowl tickets for Christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muxi87 148 Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 If you’re going to buy at face in advance, buy from the school when they start selling. Alsways looks good for us to sell out our allotments. If you’re just looking for the best deal, i’d imagine tickets will be pretty cheap on the secondary market in the days leading up to the game...

aucanucktiger 1,552 Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 For those outside Florida, UCF fans are going bonkers this season and UCF has one of the largest student bodies in the country. Don't underestimate their interest in buying tix for this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had to go ahead and buy ours tonight as I don’t get to go much due to kid sports, and I ain’t missing it, regardless of the fact I’m not overly jacked about the matchup.

tigerman1186 531 Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 My daughter bought a couple tickets today thru UCF athletics for $75....I tried to get her to wait until the game got closer, but she wants to sit in the UCF section (she's a UCF grad)...we'll have a split house for the game...

casatiger 490 Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 I think tickets will be cheap leading up to the game. This is just not a very enticing game for Auburn fans. I might just watch this one on the 65" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linayus 676 Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 Might not be the matchup we want - but UCF can score some points so we'll have to be ready defensively. I'm perfectly fine with Auburn ruining another team's undefeated season - but I'd have preferred to see us play Miami or even Wisconsin (still salty about losing to them the last two times). Edit: I'm going to try and go to this game so reliable ticket sources are appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately for UCF, our D will be nice and rested and I have a feeling that Holland and crew are going to be looking to make an example of them. They haven't faced anything close to our D. The best D they faced was South Florida, and they didn't face a single D that has a quality rush. I also believe they are the lowest ranked (91), non-cupcake D we will face all year. Scratch that, Ole Miss was worse. The only reason we shouldn't dominate the game is if we just don't show up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got screwed out of a BCS bowl and the team gave 2 shats. I don't see it. That's the one thing Gus excels at, attitude. I think we will be out to prove that we are better that what we showed in the SEC Championship game. We also have several seniors who need a quality send-off.

Never show up for games they have trouble selling 40,000 ticket for big games. I've been to many of they games and I can walk up and purchase a ticket with no problem. Please don't get me wrong I think they will travel well just not be overwhelming demand by their metro fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely, I've been to those UCF cricket chirp games too (I remember in the '70s going to Canes baseball games with free admission to any football game on the back of the stub). UCF are sunshine fans and I'm suggesting it is shining pretty brightly on the commuters right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Builder 86 Posted December 6, 2017 Author Share Posted December 6, 2017 That leaves another 50000 seats that go to sponsors / scalpers. Interesting to see who buys those up, or doesn't. I Just hope it's a full stadium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Planner4Hire 5 Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 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.

Builder 86 Posted December 7, 2017 Author Share Posted December 7, 2017 Bowls are a scam. Most tickets are provided to sponsors and those who are bowl ticketholders aka scalpers, stubhub etc. Ive noticed some schools sell them outright where others cough cough Auburn, make them available first to the elite then on down the totem pole. Often times Ive had more success buying them through the opposing team than with AU. It can be risky but I bet you can buy good seats outside the stadium this year.
