Scalping at or around Miller Park?

Hey guys, long Twins fan here but the Brewers have been my favorite National League team since they left the American League. Me and a buddy are making the trek down to Milwaukee this weekend and we already have some tickets for Friday night but none for Saturday night and we were wondering how the scalpers are around Miller Park. Thanks guys and lets go Brew Crew! Miller Park looks like an awesome stadium and I can't wait to be there!

I've never bought tickets from scaplers

but there is a “ticket resale zone” by Halfaer Field, just to let you know

"my goodness"

They're all over the place

Especially along the walk from the lot to home plate, or along the bridge near left field. You can generally get pretty good deals near gametime if it’s not a sell out.

Or even after the game has started.

I got in to opening day a few years back for 5 bones

Imagine the Brewers offense without Ryan & Prince.

The drunk chick stumbling around the parking lot paid for our tickets.

Another small suggestion.....

Instead of trying to haggle with the scalpers and overpaying, stop in at a few of the bars along Bluemound Rd. A lot of times, there are people in there just trying to get rid of some tickets for face value. McGinn’s and Rounding 3rd are two of the places I’ve bought tickets at in the past.

(Plus it gives you an excuse to stop at a bar and have a/some/many beers, which is not a bad thing.)

I have two tickets

to the game that i need to get rid of. I accidentally bought tickets for saturdays game instead of fridays (which i will be at). I’m willing to sell undervalue.

Seats?

Where are the seats and what would you want to get rid of them?

Lower Deck Tickets on 50 yard line behind Vikings bench = $119.00
Parking by the Metrodome = $25.00
Souvenir Soda = $6.50
Being there for 296 = Priceless

I got screwed

A scalper offered me a ticket for 20, I said I only had 12 and he said ok, thinking great, but not thinking about it I gave him my 12, with is a few bucks under the ticket price for the worse seats so I figured big gain. Uecker seats, I paid 11 bucks too much…

In good news I just sat in the bleachers with my buddies, but still

by Brewers on Jul 7, 2009 5:08 PM CDT reply actions  

yeah, always ask to see the tickets before buying them.

Section 222

20 rows up. They are 36 normally but 20 a piece would be great.

Actually I take that back

Sorry, I just sold them to my cousin for full price. But yes, definitely check out the bars and carry a little miller pack map with you. Good Luck!
