Default A question for our new Chargers friends

How many of you have tickets for the game? No agenda on the answers, I was just curious how many of you guys have the opportunity for season tickets out there.

Are you referring to the hose job that season ticket holders gave to outsiders. If you owned season tickets, you could buy up to 8 tickets total, regardless of how many season tickets you owned.

So, Jet fans will pay 2-3x face to get into the game, but there are definitely going to be tix available at Stub Hub and Atlas tickets. Just at an extreme premium.

I looked at tickets today, not much different than they have been in NY or at the away games I went to in NOLA and Houston. Bengals tickets were by far the cheapest for me so far this year.

I was saying in another thread, I really wouldn't buy the tickets until game day. I know that seems crazy, but I've always done better in the past by waiting. Atlas tickets in San Diego is a person's best option, but wait and see what they have the morning of the game. They'll always have tickets and if you hold out, they come way down on price on game day.

Wow, that is a hose job. For the Jets and Giants, it's been strictly a Season ticket package for years, with spread out single seats available. We're only able to get our regular seats if we were to host a playoff game. I assume the bulk of your stadium isn't filled with season ticket holders then?

With the new stadium here, both teams are having trouble selling season tickets because of the new PSLs they put in place.

Well, at least you can actually get a new stadium BUILT. We're all ourselves over the thought of the Los Angeles Chargers. It's a real fear we have.

PSL's are rough, but that's how a new facility has to get built. Season tickets don't fit with me anymore anyway... 5 kids and and a full hand every week. I'm lucky to get to more than 2 games a year.

I dont have tickets either, wish I was in a different position but I have financial responsibilities that are much more important to me than attending games. In the future I will be a season ticket holder, for now I am a mere fan ;')

I'll be enjoying this game from a bar. I can prob afford 1 game this postseason, and I'll be hoping that we win on Sunday and Baltimore can pull it off on Saturday.

I've had mine since 1991. Was lucky enough to get seats in the new stadium in the "non-PSL" area, (upper deck). I'm wrestling with how long I can keep them as well, with 3 kids. But, I do love the gameday experience.
