I'm trying to go the game tomorrow, and on AUBTIX, it says game tickets will be sold for $20.

I apologize if I sound cheap, but $20 is a bit steep for this game, during break, two days before Christmas.

Does anyone have suggestions for getting a cheaper ticket maybe at AA (Auburn Arean)?

Do people still stand outside looking to give away free tickets?

I appreciate any help!

I heard several scalpers offering half price tickets before the Xavier game if that tells you anything. I'd just go without tickets, there's absolutely zero chance you won't find some deep discounted tickets prior to the game.

You can sit in any empty seat. Buy the 5$ tickets on stubhub that you can print at home wait till you find open seats

If no one shows up for their seats no point in not taking them. Usually about 3-4 hours before tipoff tickets start auto declining in price. Found the courtside VIP seats for 20$/ticket one game.

As I said though I normally buy cheapest decent seats then look for good unoccupied ones

Bleacher seats should be $10 bucks.

Only sold them as a bundle this year. Srubhub has tickets for 5$ right now though so no point in going more than that since you can just take elevator down there

I just checked again. They sell them at the window before the game for $10. I'd go the stubhub route personally. I tried to go to the bleacher seats either last year or the year before with a regular ticket and they tried to not let me down there.

Stubhub is the way to go if they're cheap. All you need is a printer. I would get tickets for 3 and 4 dollars each in the past.

When students are there they won't but right now I don't think they check bleachers .

There is easily patches of 4-6 seats here and there in the standard lower seats though. I am buying a 5$ seat and sitting in better seats

I've never tried it when the students are there. I had someone give me tickets for one of the holiday games and walked down to the bleachers and the guy stopped me and looked at my ticket. He told me that I couldn't sit down there. I argued with him for a second and he finally let me go. Other than that, I don't think I've ever been moved by anyone working the games.

I usually do the same thing you do, but got season tickets this year.
