Morning All! As most of you probs already know i booked up to go to vegas months ago thinking there would be no problem getting tickets for this fight, however to huge disappointment I was left in the dark when I went to order my tickets an hour after they came on sale to find out they had sold out, and the only tickets left were something like £800+. 14 days away before I fly out with a few mates and still no tickets, Do any of you know weather it be easy to pick up tickets when we get to Vegas? I understand we will not be paying face value, but i am willing to pay more for a fairly decent seat. I have looked on seatwave and they have reduced their prices to 260 pounds but its for a seat at the very back of the area, Id rather pay 50 quid and go to Closed circuit TV viewing at the MGM or Mandalay bay and have a view from inside the ring than pay that not to say anything at all? or is this not the case? I dont know weather to just take it on the chin and just watch it with a group of people on the cctv or pay 250/300 quid to be live at the event but just to see 2 dots in the centre of a ring?? dont get me wrong there is nothing compared to the atmosphere inside the arena and this fight was one of the main reasons i booked up to go to Vegas as i do not drink or anything im just in 2 minds what do to atsch what are your thoughts on this lads? cheers G
So you haven't ordered them yet?. I know people that have ordered them can pick up from box office IIRC.
like i said last month you going to have to go to ebay or look for scalpers but either way your looking at spending a silly amount of money. the view in the MGM Arena is good from anywhere. where you staying?
Yeah seen them on ebay not many on there but the ones that are on there are ridiculous in price. If the view is good anywhere in the MGM i will be tempted to buy 300 pound tickets right at the back! staying at the Luxor mate! cheers
Not yet mate, coz i wanted to find out what the view was like right at the back of the arena. dont want to waste 250/300 quid if im not going to see F all rather pay 80 dollars and watch cctv on big screen cheers G
are your mates big boxing fans? your in a good location. go to burger bar in the Mandalay Bay your right next door. Best Burgers in Vegas. go on a weeknight or there will be a long wait there that good.
only going with 2 others, 1 of them is my training partner so he as big of a fan than I am and Mark is casual he will only really watch big fights, and has some knowledge of boxing but does not really follow it. big enough fan to want to go to the fight. just really reluctant to pay 300 quid for a seat at the back. im used to paying 300 quid in England and going ringside lol. As I do not drink or smoke all my money i save goes on ringside seats. I guess ill wait and see what happens in the next week or so, and go from there. its a shame really I am gutted, but maybe next time ill wait about and hopefully go out again for a British fighter. hopefully I can pick a few tickets up that are fairly decent seats though! cheers for you help and comments though mate appreciate it G
There will be plenty of tickets offered to you outside the venue by scalpers,and not all will be overpriced.Conversly,you can always attend one of the closed circuit locations where for $75 bucks you watch it on the big HD screens and there is bar and food set ups .Either way you will have no trouble getting tickets.
