|RayDoggBengal| Posted June 19, 2005 Report Share Posted June 19, 2005 They finally have the ticket pack info on bengals.com but it appears they are going to make the public go thru ticketmaster: Ticket Packs for this season's games at Paul Brown Stadium will be on sale beginning Saturday, July 9, exclusively thru Ticketmaster. Single-Game Tickets for the two home preseason games will also be on sale at Ticketmaster beginning Saturday, July 9. [url="http://www.bengals.com/tickets/SingleTicket.aspx"]Bengal Ticket Pack Info[/url] **UPDATE** Just talked to my ticket guy and non-club/box seat season ticket holders will be able to buy packages on 27 Jun from the ticket office before they are released to ticketmaster to sell.

BengalBeotch Posted June 19, 2005 Report Share Posted June 19, 2005 just looking around in the stadium... there was pretty much nothing left! They had the seats marked that were still available for season tickets and there wasn't very many! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My son-in-law works for Delta, but he only gets so many buddy passes a year. I doubt that I can help, but I can talk to him. One of the bad things about buddy passes is you're on stand-by. If the plane fills up with full paying customers, you get bumped until the next available flight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lindust20 Posted June 19, 2005 Report Share Posted June 19, 2005 I just have a couple of questions that Bengals.com didn't say. Maybe one of you might clue me in..... 1) If there are tickets available for the public through ticketmaster, is ticketmaster going to charge the extra 8 bucks per ticket for each pack? 2) Could we go to the stadium and buy ticketpacks without the ticketmaster surcharge? Because if I were to get 3 of those packs, I really wouldn't want to pay an extra $48 or so on surcharges. (call me cheap, I don't care). TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Dan_Bengals_FL- Posted June 19, 2005 Report Share Posted June 19, 2005 Also, I am thinking about going to one game at PBS this season. It really doesn't matter which game it is, I just want to get to the stadium. Would it be better to buy a ticket pack and then sell the other on Ebay, or just look for an individual game ticket on Ebay? I would think the later would be the better choice, but just checking. I plan on going to the Eagles pre-season game (if anyone else plans on it, let me know). Also hopefully we can organize something for the game at Baltimore, and then I will probably also attend one game at PBS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You bet ya, ticketmaster is going to get theirs. I've never bought any kind of tickets thru them but someone else may be able to answer if their different outlets charge a different surcharge. 2. I don't think so since they don't even list the ticket office phone number as a number to call for the packs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jungle1 Posted June 19, 2005 Report Share Posted June 19, 2005 I am going to try to talk my friends in to the Minny/Steelers pack. Probably 8-10 people. Hope I can get tickets. I saw the tags on the chairs for season tickets. Looked like a few seats on the second level in the corners and pretty much of the top level. I didn't notice tags at the upper area of the third level, but I am just assuming they didn't worry about tagging those as open. If I can't get the packs, and any of you need to sell some tickets to games let me know. I am interested in one of the preseason games too. Thanks.

|RayDoggBengal| Posted June 19, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2005 Jungle1, the second level (Club level) seats are great I set right across the rail in the club area and those seats are padded just like the club seats and bigger then the standard seats.

[right][post="104854"][/post][/right][/quote] Definitely interested. Those are the two games I'd most like to see. I'm trying to talk the wife into letting me buy 3 season tickets, selling the extra 2 for every game at a profit, and standing by the railing with friends like I usually do anyway. She's not thrilled with the idea though, so it probably won't happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turningpoint Posted June 20, 2005 Report Share Posted June 20, 2005 i feel kinda retarded.. i have season tickets... and I'm just now realizing how good our home scheduale will be.....lots of great teams coming in....these packs should go fast.

I'm actually doing that since I make about one trip up there a year, but wanted to guarantee that I would be able to get seats. I am actually selling pretty much the entire season in the 2nd level (201 row 20 - all they had), so I can always have tickets to every game including a shot at the playoffs. I am actually just trying to break even. More of an insurance policy than anything else. The sale through Ticketmaster should make the Ticket Packs sell more effieciently.

|RayDoggBengal| Posted June 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2005 Maybe we can get Go to set up stickey for people willing to sell extra tickets to board members for cost. To keep the thread clean, only those with tickets to sell would post what they have in the thread and instead of a million replys saying I want them the buyer would pm the person. That way anyone looking for tickets wouldn't have to go thru 20 pages of post to see what was available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whodey319 Posted June 20, 2005 Report Share Posted June 20, 2005 just a note, i bought 2 tickets to the houston game on ebay for $75 total. They are in the 7th row of upper deck on 25 yard line. The guy is on ebay and i have to look up his name but he thinks these tickets are for preseason games and he has several auctions for houston vs cincy on oct 2nd. All the auctions are cheap as hell.

BrassBengal Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 I dont think the tickets are going to make it to ticketmaster unless they saved a few because the season ticket holders will buy them all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Droopy Posted June 22, 2005 Report Share Posted June 22, 2005 Hey Raydogg, Thanks for your info. What price did they quote you for the tix on the 50, and what section, row were they in? The letter sent to me says $98 for Corner Endzone and $116 for Sideline. I tried for the hell of it to get some tix this morning, but they denied me until Monday June 27th when regular season ticket holders get a crack. Only the Club Season Ticket Holders go now. From seeing your seats, doesn't look like much is left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
