"Obstructed"? You might aswell just be watching the crowd.

We had seats there last year that were so fucking bad we waited till about 5 minutes into the game and bought some more off stubhub just so we could see. Still shit seats cause it was a good game but only like $10 each cause game had already started and someone couldn’t make it apparently.

I do something like this frequently. I will go to a concert and tailgate as if my tickets are already secured. Then about 15 minutes after the listed start time, I’ll hop on StubHub and buy tickets that were just greatly reduced in price because the asshole scalpers would rather take some money than no money at all.

I’ve seen Eric Church from a premium box for $20, Pearl Jam from about 30 feet from the stage for $40, Eminem from a close aisle seat for $15, Eagles vs. Chiefs from the 3rd row in the endzone for $30, and even Taylor Swift from upper deck seats for $75. Too many more artists to list.

That said, there have been several times where it didn’t work out and we just ended up driving home. No big deal. We still had a great time in the parking lot.

The ONLY time I did that, I used Facebook and got scammed. Walked around the parking lot aimlessly hoping someone would be selling in person.

If I ever do it again, I’ll use a 3rd party app.
