It would be interesting to see a timeline of the seats getting bought up last year to this year. Last year prices went up considerably but by the time my timeslot came up it was competitive to get the $300 sideline seats (End zone to 15 yard line ish). This year it seems like I can have my pick of those but to find consecutive seats in the cheaper end zone setions its going to be difficult.



I know they give a lot of those cheaper ones to youth groups/scouts/kids club but it looks to me like everyone is just trying to keep their place in line for as little money as possible. The 14, 15, and lack of 16 home schedule is a tough pill to swallow at 2013 prices. :sick:

A lot of Legacy level members this year are buying their usual number of seats, but then using their remaining allotment to buy seats in the endzones which they can then resell during the season and recoup a lot of their overall ticket purchase price.



Buy your 6 tickets between the 30s, and then buy your remaining 6 in the endzone to resell on KSL in the fall, and you can generally get back what you paid for the endzone seats plus 40% or so of your sideline seats' cost.

I think that would have worked well last year and I regretted not doing it myself. I don't know about this year though.



Who on hear has tried to go to a lot of games buying tickets from scalpers/KSL and do you usually pay above, below, or face value for a Nevada type game?

Depends on weather. Texas tickets going for $200 a few hours before game time, were worthless by kick-off time. Utah tickets were like gold. Other opponents were tough to give away. If BYU is undefeated, prices will be good even versus mediocre opponents. Everyone will want to be on that bandwagon.
