Vegas Baby!

Cheapest tix I could find were for 545$ in the 400 section. Thats nuts. Vegas Bears Fans, Do you think a deal can be had the weekend of the game? I am planning to go and happy to tailgate Vegas style all weekend but would like to get into the show for at least half that. Any hope of that happening? Watching at a sportsbook will also be fun but would be nice to check out the new stadium and support my team.

Locals own all the tickets. And one could make a case that the city of Las Vegas with all it's tourism was hit the hardest during COVID.

To make a long story short: When hell freezes over.

you could get lucky and the prices might drop closer to gameday.

People are price gouging hard right now for those raiders games because they know people will pay anything right now

Good luck on the hotel and airfare as well. Every hotel on or near the strip went up $100+ per night that weekend the minute the schedule was announced.
Caesars and MGM monopoly of the strip sucks.

That's more expensive than Soldier Field.

Basically a new stadium and team in a new town.....lowest I was seeing was $550s on Stubhub. May just wait until I get out there

 

[Da Coach]

So these are all re-sale season tix. The price should go down once the actual regular game tickets go on sale

I used to work for eBay (which at one time owned Stubhub). Some would joke that it was cheaper going to a scalper.

Who do you know that is an exec at a casino? They bought a ton of seats just to comp the high rollers.

Tiny bits of truth among the mostly BS.

The High Rollers that want to go to the Raiders Bears game will be very few. Seats to Raiders games will go out to any consistent player on there list. You will NOT need to be a high roller to get seats to Raiders games, just a player.

Also an "exec at a casino" WTF are you talking about TBD???????? To get comps you do not need to know a casino exec, that is beyond stupid. You need to know/have a host, they are the people that hand out comps, that is there job.

Casino comps are incredibly easy to understand, things get confusing when idiots like TBD that have no idea what they are talking about offer Special person opinions.

Regular Vegas gamblers already have hosts, they will make a call and get tickets. If you do not already have a host, you will not get tickets to the Bears game comped to you. You cannot drop some cash Saturday and expect tickets for Sunday, that is 100% not how it works.

BOTTOM LINE

If you already have a host you already know what to do.

If you do not have a host, it is to late to become a rated player without playing $100,000 in the next 2 months. Please don't do that, it is beyond stupid.

Forget comps, if you didn't already know everything I have said here, you will not get tickets to the Bears Raiders game by playing video poker.

If you really want to go to the game, do the same thing you would do here and contact a ticket broker and pay through to nose.

My advice (what I will probably do), pick a nice sports book, but $100 on something and enjoy the game in a unique and insane atmosphere.

Being a fan of the NFL, just got a lot more interesting and exciting!

Idiot? Stupid? Kinda harsh don't you think? In one statement you say you don't need to be a high roller to get tickets and in the next you say you need to spend 100,000.00 in 2 months. That isn't a high roller? My comments are strictly based on being a behind the house worker in Vegas for over 10 years as a contractor. I got comp tickets to many things by knowing the right person. So now explain to me again how that makes me an idiot? I could make one phone call and get Raiders tickets and a room just based on my relationships with different members of management teams at different casinos.

Which is exactly what I said. I will wait for your apology.

P.S. My comment was basically made because of the reality of the number of season tickets purchased by the different casino companies. Which is perfectly valid and perfectly true.

You obviously have no idea what Vegas comps are.

You do not need to be a high roller to get tickets, IF YOU HAVE A LONG HISTORY OF PLAYING AT THE HOSTS CASINO.

I have a strong feeling you will not be able to grasp this very simple idea. Let me see if I can bring this down to your level.

Two ways to become a rated player.

1. A player that shows up once or twice every year and plays in the casino, and does this every year over a long period of time. This player does not need to be a high roller, just a consistent player.

2. If you want to get rated in a hurry and not spend years doing it, drop a ton of money in a short period of time.

Both methods will get a casino hosts attention, both cost money. One takes years, one is quick. Is any of this getting through your thick skull?

1. A reasonable amount of cash for long period of time.
2. A large amount of cash in a short period of time.

It is simple, if you don't understand this, I can't help you.

It is obvious you have never had any dealings with a casino host. Everything you say on the subject of casino comps is wrong, not just slightly off, completely wrong.

It's okay that you know nothing about comps, just please stop pretending that you do.

Did I ever use the word comp? And no. I never dealt with a casino host. I dealt with their bosses.

I'm going to this game but only because my brother-in-law is a season ticket holder. He was even offered over $700 per seat. I would never pay that much, especially for a regular season game. But it is Vegas and everything is overrated.

It is a beautiful stadium though right off the freeway opposite of the Vegas strip. Great location (for viewing).

From what I've heard it has no real parking by it right?

Not sure about that honestly as the parking is a bit hard to see. Though I've heard (and it might have changed), but they dont allow tailgating at the stadium. Kinda lame being a party city and a new stadium for a new city as well. Point is though, the majority of the attendees are out of towners as well as folks that get the tickets as comps.

According to Allegiant Stadium's website, the parking program for the stadium has 25,000 parking spaces near the 65,000-seat, $2 billion stadium, with 15,000 of those spaces within walking distance. There will be about 7,000 tailgating spots with 5,000 of those within walking distance of the stadium.Jan 16, 2020

Going to try Seattle game as well

Nope....me and friends were trying to work this out, but the cost all around is stupid...tickets are over $500 a seat for crap, and the price of the travel is high too. We were trying to wrap this into a trip we are already taking, but too many $$$.
