A ? for the football fans

[tiff211]

I just found out today that DH's favorite team the Bucs are playing the Pats (his 2nd fav) this Saturday. I am surprised he has not been talking about it. I do not support his football obsession the way he would probably like. He plays in an indoor league, watches the college games on Sat. and the professional games on Sunday. He even will go to pop warner or high school games at the nearby field if he can sneak out of the house. I have been on him about devoting so much time to football. Anyway, I thought since he has been helping out a lot more with the kids lately, letting me sleep in, babysitting while i xmas shop and do my home parties every weekend, I would surprise him with tix to the game as an early X-mas present. However, the game is of course sold out. I have been looking on ebay and craigslist.com to get a deal on tix since this is unexpected and more than I planned to spend for x-mas. There are a lot of standing room only for reasonable cost as well as seats in the 300 (high) section. I have no idea how to go about choosing which tix to get. Is standing room only crappy. How about on one side of the end or the other. HELP!

I would say seats are better - any seat - as long as your at the game - he sounds like me so he would not care where he sits!

PM me for more sites to check.

Standing room only would be crappy, I'm guessing. It varies by stadium, but seats in the stadium itself are better than no seats (e.g. standing room) and typically, the closer to the 50 yard line, the better. But if he's a big fan and you can only get end zone, upper level seats, he'll still probably be thrilled to go.

Your best bet (albeit maybe not the cheapest) to getting tickets is to call around to ticket brokers (aka ticket scalpers).
