Outside the stadium for the LSU game....are they usually plentiful or is it the normal scalper crew?

Wait until after kickoff.

I hear they take livestock in trade.

What do you think is reasonable?

Face value is $90...so I would say $150 or less per ticket

I have 2 for sale a little cheaper than this, if interested.

It's possible, but will still be tough. I got lucky last week outside the stadium and found two at $30 apiece. Just gotta find the right guy that's ready to get rid of tickets and not willing to deal with scalpers.

I don't think $150 or less will be outta the question. Just gotta wait for the right time. Don't get antsy and buy tickets 2-4 hours before kickoff. Thats when they will be at the highest.

This game is tougher than most, but if you look and are willing to hold out, you can probably get some cheap seat tickets for face value right before kick off.

Is face value really $90 for this game? It was $75 last week.

Find sketchy looking guy near ticket entrances.
Wait for him to offer you a 'way' in the game.
Offer him $30 to let you in.
Go to the SRO area in the upper corners.
Worked two trips in a row for me.

For the LSU game this year? not a chance in hell of finding a ticket for anything "reasonable"
For any other Alabama home game this year? You can easily find tickets at or below face value.

This. $150 may may be too low until after kickoff. Will just depend on luck. I've generally had good luck running across an older fan just looking to dump extras and get to his seat before kickoff.

How does he know he found the right sketchy guy......would expect them to be a dime a dozen.

$150/ticket? You can find tickets for that right now on eBay.
Prices are no where near where they were 2 years ago.
Good seats now are going for about $250-$300 but if you just want to get in the gate you can get in for about half that now.
As far as outside the stadium you probably shouldn't have any problem finding any tickets but avoid the guys who are both buying and selling- you'll know them when you see them.
The closer you are to the stadium the less you will pay. The people who are blocks and blocks away from the stadium are hoping to catch a sucker willing to pay more .

These guys crack me up.
Sketch guy: "You need some tickets? I got four good ones I don't need."
Me: "Nah man, I'm good."
Sketchy guy: "No? Well, you got any extra tickets? I need 2."

They're nothing more than common scammers. I hate watching people sell their extras to them instead of directly selling to other fans.

Yeah, I wouldn't think it'd be hard to find tickets at this price or below at the stadium

they are not scammers. they are no different than used car salesmen. Buy tickets cheaply that people don't want to go through the trouble selling, then selling tickets to wanting customers.
of course, I don't hold a high opinion of used car salesmen anyway.
