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!

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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might pay a little more but you can get some pretty good tix. I have in the past. Reaper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got a $75 dollar ticket for $30 bucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
