Buying tickets via scalping vs internet...

Some stuff fell thru this and I'm not gonna be able to use my normal season tix. So my question to y'all is how much if any cheaper will it be for me to get tix at the game vs Craigslist,stubhub etc. They are going for around 150 on the net for LL seats. I've never bought tix there before cause I've always had mine. I'm thinking I should be able to get LL seats that aren't in the endzone for around 60-65. Am I out of line on that?
Or if anybody has two extra and doesn't feel like but frickin a fellow UGA fan let me know TIA

Hey Spank, sorry about your tix situation. I have gone the scalping route before and it can be hit or miss. Non-conference and crappy SEC opponents is easy. Everyone thinks they have gold if it's a highly anticipated matchup. I've made the mistake of thinking prices come down after kickoff. Yeah right. My advice would be to have a ticket in hand before entering Clarke Co. Never used stubhub but with Craigslist you usually have to meet up with the seller.

Post this on the SEC ticket board. You may get some responses over there as well.

I have used stubhub and never had issues. Pay a little more bu at least you know what your getting. Normally sit ll in 108 for about a bill. It bein Tennessee will undoubtably bring prices up some.

I've scalped one ticket in my life and it was the Florida game in 2010 for 5 bucks over face. Granted, it wasn't hyped up at all, but it was the first guy I tried and I didn't even bother bartering with him.
Are you looking for a single ticket or a pair/foursome together? You'll be much more likely to get a deal on a single from a group of Dawg fans that have an extra or have someone get too drunk/back out last minute.
ETA: Oh, you said pair. I'd still go scalping but make sure they're legit tickets because they're fakes sometime. I know it's common knowledge, but I've had friends buy tickets to the wrong team or a ticket to the right game that happened two years ago.

I use to get into playoff games for the Braves by giving the dude on the golf. $20 to take me in thervice gate.
Wait until the lines are long and the breeze ways are packed and scale the fence. Security will see you but not be able to get to you. They will put out an APB for a white dude wearing a red shirt. Oh yeah, the crowd will cheer for you like you just did shots with Garcia in the huddle.

Do not pay $300 for two end zone tickets to that game.
Just keep looking. I would be really surprised if you didn't get them for face value or less.
They usually free up, the closer you get to game time for a game like that.
