Does anybody know how the camping thing works? I wanna get those $8 game tickets for game 5. I heard there are over 200 people camping out for Game 1, but I dont' know if they can stay in that line for Game 5 as well.

A proud bandwagon fan!

You can camp out whenever you like.  I believe the line for the next game forms the minute the previous game ends.  They will kick everyone out who doesn't have tickets before the start of Game 1, meaning you can't just stay in line and get Game 2 (I believe).

A word of advice.  Plan.  Bring sleeping bags, coolers with food, a grill, magazines, etc.  People are going camping with NOTHING and then go "Oh, gee, I'm hungry" after 6 hours.

You probably won't get tickets unless you're in line like THE MINUTE the game ends.  There are enough crazies out there now who have basically nothing else to do but camp out to save 51 bucks.

its not just to save 51 bucks anymore, since the games are sold out, it is the only way to even get a ticket at any cost.

I'll be sitting in a recliner watching the games.

   I much rather pay $80 but I couldn't get tickets.  This should be fun.  I'll bring plenty of books and food. If anybody else in the board is planning on camping let me know.

PS. Thanks a lot for the advice.

Anything can be had, for a price  ;)

I do agree with the second part of your post, though  :)

 I just got my wristband which gurantees me two tickets as long as I'm there from Wedneday at 10am through Thrusday at 9am.  You gotta be present for the Roll Calls that are done every two hours.  I think the Glazers can learn a few things from this. I can see them doing something like this, only that they would probably charge you $100 for waiting inline so you could get your $8 tix.

Check out E Bay for tix. You might pay a little more but you can get some pretty good tix. I have in the past.  Reaper

I got a ticket for the NHL All-Star Game in Tampa in 1999 about 5 minutes after the puck dropped.  I got a $75 dollar ticket for $30 bucks.

  • Quotes

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."
