Outdoor NHL action in 2014

[NJHalo]

You'll hardly see the puck from there, if at all, because a lot it will be blocked by the boards plus the angle of your seat location. Fr these games the upper deck seats will offer a better sight angle, but they'll lose plenty because they're so far away.

If you go, I hope it works out well for you.

 

I was thinking the same thing about getting upper level seats.

 

That is where I usually sit at Madison Square Garden unless it is a special occasion.

It'll definately be weird rooting for the home team at Chavez Latrine.

Go Kings Go!

ticket prices released. prices will range from 90 - 280. the higher up the more the cost.

 

also, they're not planning on making any tickets available to the general public. kings will get 25,000 seats and ducks will get 15,000. kings ssh have the option of buying extra tickets. corporations/sponsors will be getting a few thousand so that people who know absolutely nothing about hockey can go to this game.

Where did you see this, Tank?

[Tank]

Some of my friends are ssh and they were discussing it yesterday on Facebook after hearing from their ticket reps.

That's how I'm seeing it. Strictly a 'buy and resale' game to all the people who are into the hype.

If it was at Anaheim stadium, I might consider it. But to go to Dodger Stadium and deal with all that will involve - not a chance. I'll take the money, thank you.

Would like to see an outdoor game but with the limited number of tickets available and on top of that, only a few sections will have decent sight-lines, I think I'll save my $$ and watch on tv.

As a STH for the Kings, I'm going to pass on this game. Sure, it'll be a spectacle and a "once in a lifetime" experience. But with the ridiculous pricing? No thanks. I think even if I bought tickets during the pre-sale just to re-sell it... I would end up at a loss. I'm going to take my chances and see what the prices are on Stubhub, Barrys Tickets, etc.

 

As much as the truth hurts, we're not a hockey market... yet the NHL is pricing it as if we are one. I hope the pre-sale does really bad so they could be "shocked" and then they'll have no choice but to lower the prices dramatically so Dodger Stadium isn't half full.

 

Of course, IF the stadium is half full... they'll blame Kings and Ducks fans for "not caring" rather than pointing the blame at themselves for pricing it too high.

NY Rangers announce ticket pricing for the two games at Yankee Stadium. Starting at $79.

outfield pavillion seats in dodger stadium are going to be absolutely horrible. they'll sell, but people sitting there won't have a very good view because they'll be so dang far away. same with people sitting out by the foul poles.

[HaloCory22]

Well they have two absolutely amazing HD screens they can watch it from lol. Better than nothing right?

[halobob]

I went with Field 2 row X (last row in section so I can stand without blocking the view of anyone).  I just hope its high enough to have a decent view.

[HaloCory22]

Just got my email from my Ducks rep. I can purchase tickets on Monday. Looking at the pricing. Loge and Reserve are 250+ a ticket. I might try and go your route, Halobob. Field level as far back as possible to get some height. At least 120 dollars cheaper.

[halobob]

Yeah, no way I was dropping $250+ to see this game...prices definitely seem on the ridiculous side for this game.

It would have been kind of a neat experience at a place like the Stubhub Center (formally the Home Depot Center).

That would've been a great idea!  Sight lines would be so much better in that stadium!

[HaloCory22]

Just bought my ticket. Sitting Loge 107 row L. Center ice!

That should be a great seat to view the game!

[HaloCory22]

Better be for the 300 bucks I spent on it lol. I'm flying solo to the game. No way was I going to cough up 500-600 for two seats.

[halobob]

Yeah, that'd be one expensive date!

[NJHalo]

My kids wanna go..........yea right!

[NJHalo]

Not at those prices
