If someone came from the future and told you that your team was going to the bcs championship next year and that it would be the last time in your lifetime that they were going, How much would you pay for 1 ticket to get in ???? The reason I ask is I just saw 2 go for 9100 on ebay and they were endzone seats. No way I could do it.

Are you telling me someone knows it's the last time my team has a chance to play for it all in my lifetime? I'd pay 10K easy. It's only money and to watch your team play for it all is so special

I've seen us win a bunch already so I would be fine sitting one out.

Well, we paid face value for LSU/OU in 2003 NCG through LSU lottery ... the football gods chose our number.

In 2007 we bought "dibz" for $5 on firstdibz.com (or what was firstdibz.com) and then paid face.

So I've not paid more than I guess $500 for a pair. Both times they were in the uppers of the Superdome but I didn't care. I was there.

How much WOULD I pay? That would depend on where it is and what it would cost me to get there and stay there. Can't see spending more than $1000 for tickets in my personal situation.

Already seen 3, so one last one doesn't hold much value to me. TBH, it was exciting but probably more fun at home with a bunch of friends.

I'd pay $5.

The games are more enjoyable at home to me!

Nothing. I'd stay home and watch it with family and my dogs.

I wouldn't pay anything for it. I would bet all I own and all I could leverage on the game.

I've seen Alabama win four NCs, all on TV. I could have gone last year but just couldn't justify spending the money when I can watch it with a heck of a lot more close friends in my living room.

Depends on where I was at financially. If I've got millions in the bank, I'd spend whatever I needed to. But as for me right now, I'd spend about a thousand a piece.

Oh yeah, if I won the Powerball I'd take ALL my friends and have a big time...other than that, I'd rather watch at home.

I told my wife that if I had won the $330 million dollar megamillions last night, I was buying one of the $100k suites they're selling for this game.

Most of those tickets are being bid up ridiculously high by brokers to raise prices. They just bid the frick out of them and hope some sucker actually buys them at those prices, 90 percent of the time they end up not actually selling them.
