Ticket Postings?

I was wondering how many of you get your tickets to Ram games. Obviously there are people at this site that dont attend any games but I imgaine those that frequent the site go to games when they can. For those that aren't season ticket holders, I imagine you get tickets in one of 4 ways.

1 - Directly from the Rams

2 - Friends

3- Scalpers

4 - Stubhub/NFL ticket exchange

If everyone is getting good deals from their friends or scalpers there isn't anything to do. If you are buying them from the Rams or Stubhub/ Ticket Exchange maybe there is a way to have fans of this site buy/sell tickets from each other at face and save money as season ticket holders pay less and get around the ticket master fees. I read a certain baseball blog (of a team you more than likely hate) and people post tickets per homestand when they have extras or need tickets to certain games. Of course if the Steelers are visiting few people would sell those at face and nobody is buying a preseason game for face but there are probably 5 or so games per year where it might make sense. I go to several games per year and do fine selling on stubhub but I always figure it is a fan of the road team buying my seats. With the team seemingly on the rise there might be more interest in tickets this season.

Please comment if you think this is/is not workable and if you would potentially participate.

Craigstlist could be another popular alternative

I have only used it one time but maybe that works well as there are no fees. Has that worked well for people?

There's also the new service that has partnered with SB Nation

If you look at our navigation bar next to the TST logo, you’ll see “tickets” at the far right. That aside, if you or anyone else has a couple tickets to get rid of, feel free to throw them out here as long as it’s a fan-driven effort and not a commercial one. We just want to make sure that we don’t have StubHub bombarding TST with ticket threads.

I have used 2, 3 and 4 to get tix for Rams at Niners

And used same to sell my unused tickets to Raider games, especially colder weather ones where my old surgeries complain all day long.

I have Premium Club Seats for sale if anyone is interested...

I am a season ticket holder and have a few games in the beginning of the season that I will not be able to make due to the short time left for travel plans.

They are Two Clarkson Jewelers club tickets first row(row A) in the club which includes all you can eat, free beer, wine and soft drinks(served to you in your seat) and access to the exclusive club(food and drink goes from 1 and a half hours before the game till the 3rd Q), private club bathrooms, private parking, private entrance to the park large luxury leather seats with a table next to them and cup holder etc….

The games I am looking to sell are the opener versus the eagles and one of two pre-season games.

The ticket face value is 360 but I am going sell them to the best offer that is reasonable(otherwise I will donate them to charity).

Let me know if you are interested. I want them to go to Rams fans. I do not want to put an eagles fan in my seat(rather donate them)

Please contact me with offers if you are interested(vpytleski@medrisknet.com). Again they will go to the best offer and I know Pre-season is not worth what the regular season is so make an offer if interested and the highest one will get the tickets.
