Out of curiosity how much did you pay and where did you buy them from.

theebs, looks like they have the same sightline as your seats just on the other end of the field.

$375 each, section 241 4th row aisle. I got them from StubHub


oh dear.

I would like to slap the person that owns those seats and sold them for that price.

Congrats on the tickets, but that price is just absurd. The scalping thing is bothering more now than ever.

Yes, I know I can do nothing about it and yes I know its america and free enterprise blah blah blah......but prices like that are really making me mad.

Hey man, I've had a few people offer me better than $500 for my tickets for the first game.

Well it is the first game in the new stadium vs a division rival so that makes me feel better. Honestly, I expected to pay more...

I know, its a ridiculous thing that I cant get over, I dont blame the people that buy them. I paid over 200 bucks a couple of times to go to the vet......

I just hate that so many season ticket holders are doing this.

Like I said, I know it is pointless for me to even say anything, It just bugs me.....

Anyway, the game is going to be awesome, I was just at the ballpark yesterday buying tickets and showing my dad the new stadium....That first night is going to be so loud and exciting, glad you could be a part of it dude.

Well, if it makes you feel any better, I told them where they could stick it. I plan on being at every single home game for the next 30 years.

At least I kept those tickets out of the hands of some Giants fans...

Except for the few games that you're going to give me your tickets to just so I can see a few games live, right? Right? ;)

As a season ticket holder, I can tell you that for every game that you make a little selling your tickets there are other times that you can hardly give them away. The tickets will probably sell for a premium this year due to the interest created by the new stadium, but that will fade over time.

The Cowboys are not always "on top" and when the team is in a down cycle, the tickets' value dramatically drops. I have end zone seats, which I like just fine. I go to most games, and in the good years, I can make a little off the seats if I miss a game. In the bad years, I can usually get face value.

The premium seats, on the other hand can be very hard to move. In a down year, it is difficult or not impossible to get face value out of some of the upper priced tickets. I"ll bet that the seats between the 35 yard lines would not bring face value toward the end of a 5 and 11 season.

Well, I don't have the ability to go to every game, since I don't live in Dallas. But I still want season tickets for now and for the future. So I sell what I don't use. Eventually I may be in a situation where I can go to every game. Not that big a deal.

If they're not too expensive, I'll certainly look into getting any tix off your hands for face value for those games you can't make. :)

I've already got one ticket off theebs, so yeah I'm hitting you up, too.

Just PM me if it's ever an issue. hint, hint.
