To go along with this thread i put myself on the waiting list 2 years ago thinking by the time i finally came up i would have a steady good paying job and could afford them, but apparently ive already come up as they are offering them to me as well, but in no way shape or form can afford them as im a broke college puke, i can barely afford making it to one or two games a year. the only thing that i can see that happened is that my dad was on the list a while back and took himself off of the list a while back for some unknown reason and since we have the exact same name i somehow got bumped up to the top of the list... has anybody ever heard of anything like this happening because i was under the impression it was like a 10 year wait.

Is this odd to anyone else?

Are you sure it wasn't the deal that they have offered for the past 4 or so years where you get bumped to the front of the line if you pay a 1 time fee and also pay for the tailgate? I hoped on board that train 2 years ago. The tailgate club is average, I mean its great to have a all you can eat buffet and redskins alumni to sign autographs but its exspensive.

I say buy at least 2 and if you can afford 4 buy them. Think of it as an investment and as long as you sell the ones you don't want BEFORE the season starts you will be fine. Believe me when the Skins go say 5-10 and have 1 home game left, good luck getting anything for that ticket. On the flip side if they have a good season they are worth alot of money.

Well I decided to go for it and sent in my deposit for 4 tickets. I won't know anything until sometime around May.

If I do get them like I said I will only go to 2 or 3 games and will sell to you guys for face value. I told my wife and she was kind of pumped to get them so thats will help. I didn't tell her that I wasn't going to take her to any games.LOL

Send her (and a friend/sister/another woman) to the games you're NOT going to. She'll appreciate the break from the kid and you...and you'll appreciate the break from her. :D

I started in row 29 of Section 419...they were $58 seats I believe...had no trouble selling my extras in those seats. Last year I was upgraded to row 14 in the same section for $80 each...I had a much harder time selling the better seats. the problem is that the general redskins fan public does not realize that there are many different price levels in the upper deck. In order to get my money back on an $80 ticket I need to sell it on Stub Hub or Ebay for between 90 and 100. People with tickets in my section rows 16 and up can sell for 80 or even less and still make a profit. So my tickets look like a ripoff compared to others for sale online when in reality I have marked them up less than the ones that look like the bargain.

My point is that you will have no trouble selling until you get upgraded...it's sort of backwards.

StubHub.com! Check them out for selling your tickets. Since you know that you are only going to three games, you might work a deal with them now on the game tix you won't use. That way you have an upfront commitment for your unused tickets.

Ticket brokers will work with you, too.

Congrats on your tickets.

Stubhub does not buy and sell any tickets...they just provide a forum to connect buyers with sellers. And they take a handsome 15% profit of every sale for their troubles...

Wow Im shocked! I pay $100.00 for 25th row lowers. I thought upper deck tickets were no more than $40. Are you adding in parking or tailgate or anything like that? If not that sounds steep to me.

No, the ticket alone is $80 each. Your not alone in that thought...that's why I had a hard time selling my extra tickets last year. There are different prices all over the stadium depending on the row and yardline they are located on.

I am in section 419 which is in the corner of the endzone...the price jumps from around $60 to $80 from row 15 on down. Directly behind the end zone up top might be in the $40's but most of the upper bowl is $60+.

Please be sure - before you plunk down any cash - that the seats do not have a "partially obstructed view". They'll be a bit difficult to unload if they do.
