I doubt it's tough to find cheap tickets at the game.

Yeah, my friends and I are debating on whether to buy from scalpers or just play it safe and buy them online. I have never purchased tickets from scalpers.

^ I'm debating the same thing. How close to the game do they let it get before they just try to get rid of them?

Heck, just keep tailgating with us until the lot clears and then scalp part way through the 1st quarter. I'm sure they'll be dirt cheap at that point. At most you'll miss a couple punts or a FG.

At least for Browns home games, tickets get REALLY cheap the night before the game on Stubhub (you could have sat in the upper end opposite the Dawg Pound for $2/seat last week, with a $5 download fee.. also it was an ENTIRE ROW of seats at that price, lol). Even if the prices don't drop that low, I bet they still drop significantly on Sat. night as Bengals fans get desperate to just get some sort of money out of them.

I just looked at the Broncos game just now, and most tickets are $30. Granted it's 2 hrs before the game, but I am going to check out all the games this sunday to see how the ticket prices drop. Thanks for the tip. Reps.

For you smart phone users, have you ever had your ticket scanned through your phone?

Ok I honestly wasn't caring about the escort, I just wanted the tickets. But apparently, I can get them online for face value right now, and a keg would be WAY more expensive! lol

If you aren't actually going into the game, you'll be SOL in terms of watching it anywhere else. Game is blacked out.

Should make it easier to buy tickets then.

Mirg is bringing the turkey.
I'll be supplying a few pounds of hamburger and I have an unopened 5 or 6 pack of hot metts from the WVU tailgate two weeks ago.

If you think we need more meat I'd bring that. I am planning on running to Costco at some point on Friday or Saturday morning to pick up some side dish stuff. I'll probably just get a big tub of potato salad or something. We could use some other sides or snack stuff like chips.

How does that work if a bar has Sunday ticket?

Still blacked out according to Directv. I googled it earlier.

They black it out on Sunday Ticket for anyone who is eligible to receive the Cincinnati, Dayton, or Lexington CBS stations.

This. If the game is blacked out you can't watch it in Cincinnati no matter what.

I'm not sure if it applies to Lexington. Every Bengals game has been on for me so far, I believe. At least it seems like it.

You can always listen to Laps get over excited broadcasting it on the radio.
