Until last year I used to have three. Then I started having to give away a $100+ ticket three or four times a year, which was costing me stupid money. So I cut down to two. The guy who sits next to me has my old third ticket, and sometimes its available, but not often.

Out of respect for Dartgod, LoneWolf will be refraining from any commentary based off of Gblowfish’s top ten list.

I get it dude. I'm glad he sold them but why bitch about the NFL charging regular season prices for pre-seaon games? This has been going on for the last four decades now.

Considering the location of those seats, there will always be a demand for them.

Do you sell to rival fans or no? All money is green right?

For those who have never been to Arrowhead or want to take a kid to their first game. George's preseason game seats are one hell of a way to do it right and have a cool experience.

Blowfish deserves to be in the CP Ring of Honor.

George -

You do realize you could sell those seats for an obscene profit on Stubhub anytime you want, correct?

Eleazar 07-15-2018 01:14 PM

If you can find one sap to buy preseason tickets for full price, then that's what they are worth. Blowfish should be commended for getting full price for his preseason tickets when someone could sit just a few rows up or a section or two over and pay nothing or next to nothing. He's put in the work here promoting them and found a way around the NFL's policy of pickpocketing STHs through the anus

Yeah, that hasn't really been my style. But more as these games get monetized by the Chiefs, the more tempting it is to scalp. I haven't been into buying season tickets as a commodity. It may get to that point sometime, but I'm not quite there yet.

If the seats list on the NFL ticket exchange, they're open game to anybody. I hope a Chiefs fan bought the Green Bay game, but Packer fans travel like crazy, so who knows?

I'm glad that you got your money out of them George. I didn't think that you would. Like you said, games 1 and 4 are a hard sell.....most years. I went to game 4 last year. That's the one I wanted to see. But that was because I wanted to see Mahomes start. I watched the entire first half, then left shortly into the 3rd quarter. There just wasn't anything worth watching once Mahomes went to the bench. This year, I have no desire to go to preseason game 4 even if the tickets were free. That's nothing against you or the location of the tickets. It has to do with the fact that most everyone on the field for that game will be cut the next day.

I'll second that.

I would've bought them, but not only do I never call in sick, I've decided to work 24 hour shifts 7 days a week as personal test of will.
