Tickets: scalpers vs StubHub vs prostituting myself

I'm out of state now and thinking about breaking away to try and go to Death Valley for Louisville game. Biggest problem is that I currently have no tickets and prices on StubHub are already soaring. Anyone had experience recently at high profile games like this scoring tickets for a decent price? Is it worth just taking a chance with scalpers, maybe even after the game starts? Do StubHub prices drop after the game starts? I'm trying to figure out the best way to get in to the game without having to sell my body behind the dumpsters around back of Mellow Mushroom.

I believe in the case of stubhub, listings are automatically pulled after the start time.

Oh, that's good to know. I didn't know they pulled ticket listings after start time.

i have always found a ticket outside before the game, had to sit on the hill for $60 for the purple GT game a few years ago, but it was fun, good luck

Price drops on stub and here. Trust me. Supply and demand!!! I watched the greed on here with national championship tickets.

the extras so they can sell at huge markup to cover their cost when that leaves other true Tiger fans left out. You will never change those types of people but hopefully something will. I would wait until kickoff and then buy a ticket.

stubhub tickets will drop drastically over the next two weeks. People are just trying to cash in on the over reaction of Louisville beating down FSU.

I can't believe what some of these people are asking for these tickets. I would never price gouge a fellow Tiger fan. I don't wanna hear about "seat equity" I pay it as well, and have seats under the overhang. $500 and $600 upper deck tickets are ridiculous.

I bought a ticket for the Auburn game on StubHub 2 weeks before the game...there were 6 available and I only bought 1. The folks sitting next to me bought their tickets on StubHub (assuming from the same source) the week prior to the game and their tickets were $50 cheaper. Same thing with the FSU game in 2013...ticket prices the week of the game fell about 30%. It seems they reach their peak about a week before- and that makes sense as by then most people have plans made to either go or not go. 2 times and now I know when to buy....and remember the price you see on StubHub does NOT include their very high $30-35/ticket "convenience fee".

Mellow mushroom is gone. You should probably just stay home.

Same as others said - Stubhub pulls listings a few minutes before game time (or maybe right at game time?)
I would strongly recommend avoiding scalpers. We always buy our tickets outside the stadium but high profile games are very difficult - especially for this game, supply will be VERY low at the stadium. Last year at the FSU game I bought from a scalper out of desperation (game had already started) and was scammed - the ticket said "already used" when they scanned it. (thankfully the guy let me in anyways)
Just watch stubhub, tigernet, craigslist, and eBay over the next 2 weeks. Won't get CHEAP, but prices will likely go down.

If traveling from out of state, I would purchase a ticket before leaving home. Tickets won't be cheap at the stadium. If we get past GA Tech, it will an insane environment on game day.

You don't want to be running around the stadium in panic mode looking for a ticket when the game is starting.

Not that this will help you for the Louisville game, but maybe you should consider becoming an IPTAY member. For the 2016 season, $765 would have gotten you a "best available" parking pass and one ticket to all 7 home games ($400 IPTAY "Orange" level donation + $365 for one season ticket). IPTAY will even let you spread that $765 over 12 monthly payments...
Not to be an IPTAY pimp, but I just think the advantages afforded to Clemson and yourself through IPTAY membership outweigh paying $250(+) for a single high profile game and the hassles/stress that comes with it. Even if you only make it to a couple games a year it seems to be a good deal to me and you don't have to worry about scalpers, fake tickets or lining the pockets of people that don't give a crap about Clemson. Besides - IPTAY is a good thing for all Clemson student athletes and a chunk of your IPTAY donation is tax deductible.
