Soap Box ticket rant
Sep 21, 2015, 3:08 PM

With Notre Dame on deck, people are coming out of the woodwork looking for tickets. we had a couple extra to both Wofford and App State and had a challenge to simply give them away, ended up selling to a scalper for about 10 bucks each for Wofforf and finally found someone to use 3 out of 4 for the app state game.
I'm always happy to help true clemson fans who may struggle to find face value tix. but don't come to me wanting notre dame tix when you don't have the decency to show up for the app states and wake forests of the world when tickets are offered to you for free.

You're going to get a lot of folks here raising hell because they don't give to IPTAY and then you won't sell your ND tickets to them for face value.
I gave away some extra App St. and Wofford tix to some young fans. Didn't see the point in trying to make a buck.
But I have a few extra ND tickets and I'm selling them for profit. Did it two years ago for UGA and FSU. Didn't lose sleep then; won't lose sleep now.

I remember as a kid going into the Clemson game at Willy-B in 1981 and some guy was outside the stadium holding a $100 bill up in the air looking for a ticket. I thought who in his right mind would pay that much money to see a football game. My how times have changed.

Those people aren't concerned about the nut cuttin' ticket holders take when they have to give away tickets to Wofford and App State. Don't expect the ticket holders to then feel the least bit guilty about price gouging tickets to the Notre Dame game.

It's a simple case of pay me now or pay me later.

As much as those people enjoy bragging about how they always manage to find tickets to "most" games well below face value, spare me all the b!tching, moaning, whining and complaining when you have to pay in excess of face value (sometimes well in excess) for tickets to see opponents like Georgia, Auburn, FSU or Notre Dame. They'll get no sympathy from me.

Hard to make it 3000 miles for multiple weekends so I tend to choose the bigger game (s). That alright? Looking for tickets to Florida State if anyone has any they aren't using! Upper or lower don't matter!
Go Tigers!

i get that, i am basically talking about some friends and

family who live in greenville who just did not want to go to some of the lower tier games, yet are begging me for tix to ND and FSU. i get that people have jobs, have to travel, and other personal issues.
it is not even about the money, i can certainly respect both sides of the issue and can make a case for and against both ticket scalping and screwing over a tiger fan. i was talking about a few friends who only want to come to the "big games" who are to lazy to go to some of the sisters of the poor who visit the valley even when given the option of free tickets. got to pay some dues people!

Yeah, completely understandable! If you're a fan, go to games cause you love your team not just cause its a big game! Last season I was able to make it to 5 games, while I was going to school in Kentucky, and I scalped tickets outside stadium every game. It has always worked for me.
But since I can only make it to one game this season and I'm flying across country I'm hoping to find some before hand! Would make me feel much more comfortable haha!

I'm an IPTAY donor and never miss a game. Hell I'm just trying to find two more so my kid and his girlfriend can go to the game. But I'm not paying someone's car note or mortgage

All that gold will look nice and shiny in the lower deck and then come Sunday TNet will be filled with all these people saying they would never sell to opposing team fans. Well, somebody is. You can clearly see it.
