Eagles single game tickets, how'd you do?

by JasonB on Jun 16, 2009 10:15 AM EDT in Philadelphia Eagles News

Every year when Eagles single game tickets go onsale they're sold out in minutes... then of course hundreds of tickets show up for double the face value on ticket agent sites that the Eagles call their "partners."

In other words, it's pretty hard to get Eagles tickets for face value. Personally, I've tried getting them at 10am on this day for 5 or 6 straight years and never had any luck...

Until now! After a few tries at a few different games, I was able to get two upper level seats to see the Eagles play the 49ers in late December.

Anyone else have any luck?

For the 49ers as well! I’m the only one in my office that got any and now I feel kinda bad for the rest of the people who were trying…
Oh well, I got tickets!! Suckas :)

Every year, I go after what I feel is the least appealing game and usually get at least 2, sometimes 4 tickets. I got 2 vs Tampa, but unfortunately f-ing ticketmaster logged me out so I had to enter all my credit card info, which ruined any chance of getting an additional 2 tickets.

And by the way, this ticket partner nonsense is bullshit. How is it legal? I mean, how is it any different from the scalpers outside the stadium? Can anyone help me out here?

I had 3 people at ticketmaster refreshing

for 3 different games. Not one of us got anything.
Bullshit.

Section 203

Same thing for me with the 49ers. This is the first year I’ve ever gotten tickets at the 10am start time as well. The trick? Learning to settle in life. I went right for the 49ers — no cowboys, giants, broncos, etc.

Yeah I went for the Kansas City game first, got nothing… and then got 49ers tix.

I went for the Broncos first (4). Then quickly figured I was gonna have to settle to get anything, hense the 49ers.

That's the other thing...

You can’t go for 4. Gotta try for 2… 4 seats together is an extreme unlikelihood.

203 for me as well

Row 20. Where are you at?

I went right for the Niners as well. In the past I tried others, and didn’t get through. This year I got right in and ordered right away.

Maybe we can have a BGN meetup?

section 203

Row 28, seats 22-23. Your tickets are 8 rows better than mine. Fie!

But yeah, BGN party in 203.

You haven’t leveraged your blog as an “in” to some perks with the birds? I’d be selling out a la Eskin like crazy if I were you.

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i cannot believe i forgot… i’m in the process of moving into a new house and just totally forgot!

However, its not the end of the world… i decided last year that i’m done buying tickets before the season. The last two years i wound up paying like $50 more than i would have if i had waited (this obviously excluded getting them from the team during the 10am sale).

For instance i ended up with 2 tickets to the game at washington, 10 rows up for $20 total last year.

It just all depends on the season i guess

8 games in 8-0 we goin.

let me also add to this...

that i think the best/cheapest way to go to game is to be flexible and watch ebay up to the day before th game. There are ALWAYS people who have to sell tickets at the last minute, and most of these people have ticket fast tickets anyway, so they can just email them to you.

But Congrats to you guys on the tickets!

I’ve never gotten through during the sale… well actually i think i did once on standing room tickets

8 games in 8-0 we goin.

I’ve been lucky the past two years I guess.

I got 3 to Arizona last year and I got 2 Broncos tickets this year.
