re: SECCG Ticket market historically low demand

Man, I am so tempted to go to the game. I don't think I can convince my girlfriend to want to go though.

The game has been devalued with the playoff expansion.

I keep saying this but, I think best option is a conference 4-team playoff for the Power 4. Then those 4 champions play in 4 team National Championship Playoff.

Would make the Conference Championship a huge deal. Leaves out the G5 and ND, but ND could join a conference.

Tickets are not a damn investment. Youre a douchebag if you buy face value tickets with only the intention of selling them for a profit

Just for clarity.

I have held championship game tickets for over a decade.
Most years I go to the game.
I’ve seen my team play in it 3 times.

I’ve provided tickets at costs to friends most years.

Nobody wanted the tickets this year. I grew up in Alabama and live in Georgia.
I am getting older, and so are many of my contacts so I was able to give a friend 2 tickets at my costs.

The other two tickets I could not find anyone who wanted to go to the game for $237.50 per ticket which is my cost.

So I listed them.

I lowered the price day after day until they sold. I made $50.

Last year 4 UGA friends took them at cost and were excited to get them at that price.

Get on the waiting list. You can then decide IF you are a douchebag, or not IF your team is not in the game.

One year I cleared $1800 on $630 tickets.

The vast majority of years, I went to the game with family or friends or let them have tickets at costs.

There’s also zero trash talk here between Bama/UGA fans. Weird year, that’s for sure.

Not really a shite-talking sort of series. We don't actually hate Georgia like we do UT or Auburn. It's pretty lopsided as well, so that definitely cuts down on it.

Almost all fans outside of Georgia and Alabama fans don't want to see this game.

We don't really want to see it either. We were ready to play somebody new, but A&M shite their pants.

Bama fan's are too preoccupied with LSU.

...yet again.

UGA fans will take that over, finally a big game with cheap seats...... It's great.

So stupid. Tickets are still averaging 5-700 a piece. Since you’ve never been you wouldn’t understand this, but there’s basically three sections. 1,2 and 3 which is upper deck.

1 is running 1200 minimum and up to 3500 per seat depending on what yard line and section.

Level 2 is 750-1200 or more depending on what yard line

And upper deck is starting around 250 but that’s the top of the damn stadium next to the ceiling.

Auburn sucks

A few weeks ago, I dreamed of A&M or Ole Miss getting into the game for the first time. I would sell my tickets for a record price.

I sold mine three weeks ago...got double what I got last year...when I listed this year, I made my tickets the cheapest in the section...worked out well.
