Idiots will keep paying so they will keep charging

I been to UFCs when the tickets started at 35 dollars and the floor seats were around 350. You must have laser eyes or something. I was on the floor and I still had to look up at the monitors if they were on the other side. The cage isn't good for live viewing.

Center Ice is best. I have been in the 100's and been 2nd last row (at MGM Grand Garden so smaller) and they are far better viewing angle then corner seats. Never been on the floor but I would think the elevated cage would make it tough to see unless you are right up front.

Its almost better for the hardcore fan when your hobby is unkown. Better for the fighter but worse for the fans.

 

[dipstickjimmy]

Is it just me or have Cr@ckstream been unreliable the last 3-4 events?

 

[Contempt]

Such bullshit... I remember paying $1100 each for a couple of front rows tickets to the first UFC Saitama card and thinking it was super steep.

Similar tickets for the current card would probably pay for my 77" OLED, speakers, surrounds, sub, a case of beer and takeout for the event. Fuck that, we're watching this from the comfort of my couch...

I was briefly annoyed at first I won’t be in Australia for this but now I give zero fucks about it. What a joke.

Yeah, I went to the first UFC in Australia and multiple since, all Diamond seats.

I think I'm done with seeing live shows... unless I can see a good card in Vegas. Speaking of, how's Vegas going?

Vegas is great, thoroughly enjoying it. Would still like to see a UFC card here one day. Have only been into t mobile for ice hockey.

Glad to hear.

I just kind of want to check it off the list so I can say that I have watched MMA, musical theater and opera on three different continents... guess I'm weird that way.

Edit: Oops, forgot one... that should read: MMA, metal, musical theater and opera.

 

[Chaotic Progressor]

That's absurd. Literally better streaming it at home for free, I mean, uh paying 70 bux or w.e

And it will sell out, with those tickets probably available for 600.


Its not our UFC anymore, if you're on Sherdog you probably make under 100k. UFC has passed us, still fun, but its not for us in person its for double income with 20k available on the CC people.

So, refusing to waste money all williy-nilly is acting the fool?

I get supply and demand, and things being worth what people are willing to pay for them. Paying $900+ for nosebleeds is asinine and only stupid people are spending that kind of cash for those seats. IDGAF who your favorite fighter is... $1k+ (after your drinks and food) for a night out to watch a a barely passable fight card on a jumbotron is not worth it.


I have been to live UFC events before, and in my opinion they aren't worth $900+ a ticket, unless you just don't care about wasting money. I'd be hard-pressed to drop $900+ on cage side seats let alone the nosebleed section. It is better watching at a bar or at home, and it would take an epic card to make me reconsider this.

One arena I went to, they didn't even allow you drink in your seats, alcohol had to stay outside of the seating areas... in the lobbies or mezzanines only.

You can’t drink in your seat

Not a fucking chance am I paying for that

 

[pinero]

If there are enough dumb people to pay for that, then they should start thinking to go over $1500, WTF, lets gonna hit the $2000

 

[JakePaulMMA]

UFC is run by the Elite, for the Elite

Hope everybody saved their Trump Bucks

 

[Tayski]

Watch it online on an illigeal stream for free. Better view, you choose your drinks, no security to tell you off, no queue for the toilets. And you save money.

 

[Van Daz]

Damn, nosebleeds are all that's left...at that price. I wonder what the decent tickets cost?

I was thinking of going until I saw the prices. $900 is the cheapest. Some great seats left, but they range from about $6,000 to $8,000.

Buy a projector
Get some mates

311 in Los Angeles is just as bad. Cheapest I've been able to find for shit seats is 730-750 USD.

 

[GIBLERTBAPTISTA]

$912 is crazy.


The first aussie event UFC 110 I paid like $50 for nosebleeds. My whole UFC 110 weekend flying return from perth to sydney, staying at a dodgy hotel in kings cross and getting a ukranian hooker probably cost less than $912, even after adjusting for inflation.
