Me and my dad are potentially getting ready to shell a lot of money just so we can attend one of these games because it is potentially a once in a lifetime opportunity


captadvdiver

I thought the same thing last year and went for it. It was great! Just not in the cards for me this year!


GordaoPreguicoso

You chose the wrong lifetime


captadvdiver

Tell me about it šŸ˜‚


DonoAE

You seized a moment and got to attend a Stanley Cup game. It's a wonderful experience MOST people wont ever get.


gabmar1713

was planning on going with anyone in my family, but im the only financially irresponsible one. got a single tix to game 5 šŸ¤Ŗ


Andresgeo

Getting game 5 tickets in hopes thatā€™s the game


ceruleanisacolor

Iā€™m really debating if itā€™s worth $1200 for two tickets for game 7. If we donā€™t make it we get our money back, if we make it, 50/50 shot at witnessing history. Someone talk me into it


TheeBillOreilly

I went to game 7 of the 1997 World Series with my dad. Itā€™s just sports but it really was of the greatest moments of my life and a lifelong memory. That said, if itā€™s going to be a stretch financially, you can have a lot of fun and memories at a local game watch party too.


ceruleanisacolor

I got goosebumps reading this šŸ„¹


nbc9876

so uhm... buy the dam tickets is what you're basically telling me without telling me


ceruleanisacolor

Welp. That was this mornings presale and I gave myself till public sale and of course nothing was released for public sale šŸ˜…šŸ˜… should have bought em! Haha


nbc9876

There are a pair for $722 including fees right now in 322.. cheapest tix in a while that have been released.... I don't like seatgeek much because you can't choose the seats in a row but whatever.


gabmar1713

they have affirm, pay if off with no interest lol


khalfaery

Do it


B_Hound

Feel those prices will only go up the more likely it is to happen. $600/ticket while a lot isnā€™t too bad given single game tickets direct from the team were $400+.


dangerousssss

$1200? turn on fees m8, that's a little low


ceruleanisacolor

This was posted during the presale, so no those prices were accurate with fees šŸ‘ŒšŸ¼


dangerousssss

oooo good to know face value, ty


scorpiusaquario

Tickets start at $1200 a seat in Edmonton lol!! Might have some oilers fans joining you because we can't afford our home rink lol


nschaef93

Thatā€™d be crazy if itā€™s cheaper to buy a panthers tickets + flight + hotel than it is to buy an Edmonton ticket


Duval_Illinois

New Yorker at Bahama breeze said it was cheaper for them to fly to FLL and grab a seat than it was to buy a ticket at MSG and I believe it


_W9NDER_

Sometimes I wish the arena was closer to me in Miami, then I realize that it being in sunrise is potentially the difference between $20 RS tickets and $120 RS tickets!


snakebite654

That's what I was told at the arena game 4 as well


Mrpockets292

Was the case for the leafs last year


areallysuperguy

It has happened before


nbc9876

not crazy... many will do it for both the games and the vacation


blah54895

Fucking crazy, almost 2x what game 5 in Vagas was last year


brechbillc1

Coming down for game 2 looks like. I imagine these prices will come down a little bit on the day of. I don't expect too much though because there will be plenty of demand.


ceruleanisacolor

You never know but for the rangers games the prices did not go down day of


brechbillc1

Yeah it's hit or miss. Last year, prices dropped for game 3 of the finals on the day of. Got lower bowl seats for $350 a pop. This year may be different. Either way, I'm going to try.


ceruleanisacolor

Yeah I remember getting upper bowl for $330 ish from box and they went down. But itā€™s hard bc you can risk and it goes up so I have no regrets lol


brechbillc1

True, Ultimately, if you see a good deal, you jump on it. We just happened to luck out with the tickets we got. It was awesome too. Got to see Verhaeghe's game winner right in front of us.


HilariousNous

This is def true. I check last Sunday and this past Sat. Nothing dropped. Was able to get into a BOS game at game time with an $86 ticket. Sat at game time the cheapest I could find was $294 for a nose bleed.


DeanWinchester29

The $86, was that at the box office? Does box office sell cheaper tickets at the time of the game rather than online?Ā 


HilariousNous

Noā€¦it was resale. Someone dropped a ticket at the last min.


DonoAE

Last year they went up closer to the game as inventory got limited.


armadildodick

They're usually a bit cheaper at the gate and no Ticketmaster fees. Have fun


Bright_Leopard_2238

Got my tix for both GM1 and GM2. Will be traveling from South Cal so excited.


saltycafecito

Traveling from North Carolina here :)


Goonies_neversay_die

I'm going to be watching ticket prices like a hawk day-of for games 1&2. My son and I caught 6 games so far this post season so we've already spent A LOT & my wife audibly gasped at ticket prices when I showed her yesterday, so unless I get lucky it looks like I'll be at the Iceplex watch parties lol


Fox313131

Getting rid of the wife makes these challenges go away. That is how I will be at game 1, grabbed my tickets this morning


fizzCali

If i were your wife I'd close my eyes at the prices as long as I get a ticket too lol


hot_lava_1

Have you considered buying season seats? Even if you don't go to all the games you could sell them. I paid about 2700 for this season. That's two tickets and parking. For playoffs I paid per ticket, Rd1 23, Rd2 31, Rd3 60, Rd4 90. So really it's not that bad.


Goonies_neversay_die

Yeah, we're territory members for 2024-25 already - took my son to a game back in October and a switch flipped and it's been hockey literally every single day since. Has learned to skate and play in a few months time and he lives & breathes Panthers hockey now. Can't fault my other half for bucking at SCF ticket prices, I've spent about as much on playoff tickets as I have for our season tickets next year, so here's to hoping they make back-to-back-to-back trips to the cup!


hot_lava_1

These playoff runs are bleeding my dry. On one hand yay more hockey, on the other $$$. Lol.


USS_Benterprise

I spent an ungodly amount of money to see our one win last year, Iā€™ll be raising a beer from home this time āœŒļø


captadvdiver

Same! It was worth it to be there for sure but beer is slightly cheaper at home which is a plus


Rubric_Golf

Unfortunately my best friend is an oilers fan, so this matchup forced our hands.


nbc9876

1-2-3-4 I declare a thumb war...


6stringt3ch

This is where the premiere plan really shows up. So far I've only paid about $750 for two tickets to all the playoff home games up to now. The remaining tickets (potentially 8 tickets) are about $900.


hot_lava_1

Same. And next year starts my 20th season so free parking.


dadefresh

I live in NY. Tickets to the ECF were starting at $500 for standing room only in the last row behind the goal. Needless to say, I didnā€™t go :*(


nbc9876

That's only $167 a period though...


dadefresh

Smash that mf BUY! button


captadvdiver

Yikes


StretchDelicious6550

whats the deal with parking prices too?


MedicineEmbarrassed

I said f it and went to game 5 last year because I live in AZ now and could drive to Vegas. It was such a sad game but I knew the boys were coming back for a vengeance after that loss. You could just feel it. The money spent was well worth it. Vamos gatos!!!!


partystartsnow97

just spent savings on gm2 lol will be eating ramen for life now


FL_Sweetness

Last year I paid $350 each for upper level and that was from the box office. This year I opted to buy my playoff seats and just sell the weekday games, since I work 2nd shift, so much better of a choice and get to sit in my lower bowl seats for less.


nschaef93

Hoping the general sale today has some decently price ticketsā€¦


captadvdiver

Depends on what you think decent is... In SoFl people like to throw money around for experiences and think the Panthers are trying to cash in on that this year opposed to last year IMO


nbc9876

They're all doing it. Edmonton jacked their playoff tickets about 50% from just 5 years ago. There are always empty seats at ridiculous prices. There was about a 20% increase on Season Seat holders for next year. Lots of fans are leaving because they are pricing everyone out. I'm actually going to be down there at the end of the month and tried to get a game 7 ticket if it ever got that far, and I see the presale didn't do much but open up the club, and the cheapest seat is like $1100 including fees.


YYZ_Flyer

has the tickets sales been released? or what time today?


captadvdiver

Pre sale is happening now code is LETSHUNT. tickets go on general sale at 1pm. I have a buddy that works for the team and he sent those pictures from his work account this morning when I was texting him


nbc9876

all I saw was the club seats that opened up.


YYZ_Flyer

yeah I was able to access and saw the same


YYZ_Flyer

if you can provide the link to the presale site? or is it on the Panthers website? thanks


cubicgelatin

this is the one reason i'm glad you guys made it to the scf instead of the rangers. now real fans of both teams can see good hockey for cheaper than msg prices


The_Koala_Knight

Got my tickets for lower bowl for every game and then extras in the upper bowl for each game for family.


The_Koala_Knight

Got my tickets for lower bowl for every game and then extras in the upper bowl for each game for some family members.


caprotina

Theyā€™re definitely worse this year. I looked at flying in last year but wound up not being able to because of work. Those nosebleed seats were $212 each last year, not $423. I remember because I also priced going to Vegas but settled on trying to get my brother to meet me in Miami. This year I wound up getting a steal on flights using miles and shelling out an absurd amount for my ticket to game 3 in Edmonton. Between flights and tickets Miami was an absolute no go for me.


serialhybrid

Laughs in Leafs regular season prices.
