Ticket prices to Lipscomb game dropping like flies....

If you can hold out until near game time they will be giving them away. I hope the stands are full but there will likely be several empty patches because of the greed of several IPTAY members. It's a sad day in Tiger Town when some less fortunate kid can't come to a friggin college baseball game because somebody is trying to resell tickets they don't need for 3-4x face value. I hope some of you knuckleheads rethink this strategy if our crowd looks weak for this game. Go Tigers!!!!

If any of y’all have standing room tickets and see seats that are empty all the way to the third inning feel free to fill this seats up so we can have a full stadium.

i remember when games we free for you and your family if you were a university employee
it's very sad to see that IPTAY is becoming like everything else in this new society of South Carolina.

I didn't attend any of the Monte Lee regionals so not sure if the same thing went on with the online ticket scalping then. But for the Khalil Greene and Tyler Colvin era regionals it was easy to get tickets straight from the ticket office even as non IPTAY members. Somebody mentioned a 4 ticket limit for IPTAY members but I saw somewhere for this regional that there was no limit. Somebody even scooped up a hefty majority of the standing room only tickets and are charging as much as $55 on StubHub for a $15 ticket. Ticket Master is smiling big over all of this. Fees galore! I have no problems with someone trying to profit a little for premium seats but when the whole system has evolved into people buying up 1000+ tickets to scalp we got a problem. Especially if it results in large swaths of unfilled seats in prime sections. We'll see how that turned out at 1PM today.

it makes me just as mad to see the premium seats being scalped as the cheap ones

Just because someone has enough money to afford premium seats doesn’t mean what they are doing is any more acceptable. But many people are a lot more worried about making a buck than supporting the team and it’s been that way for a while now.

No, Republicans say that handouts should come from our very generous private sector.
Not from the government.
Just because the government CAN print money and give it away doesn't mean they should. Every "free" dollar the government prints and gives away devalues all the ones you and I have earned.

The reason is so we have more time to rest between games.

What you said and why sit and wait letting the nerves take over. I was trying to think of how many current Tigers have ever played in NCAA Regional. And yeah, it's none.
Believe it or not, the object is to win each game and use every advantage. Lipscomb
traveled, slept in a hotel, and everything around them is unfamiliar. Get them early before they get comfortable.
Go Tigers and Bison Burgers are on the menu.

I blame the way they sell tickets.
I’m going to the game today, but there are a lot of people that have a 9-5 job that can’t go to a 1pm Friday game.
The way they set it up, is you have to buy the package with all the games though.
So if it’s empty today, blame the ticket office and the ncaa!

.....the NCAA dictates the package deal. They will upend season ticket holders for the Super Regional.

....join IPTAY AND buy season tickets. You will get Regional and Super Regional tickets then. If you don't do that then use the money to buy second hand tickets. Quit whining.

Simple solution…join IPTAY and buy the tickets at face value yourself. People forget that the price of tickets isn’t the only money people have invested. Charging above face helps to recover fees that allow the tickets to be purchased.
