  • Apologies if this isn't a good place for this. My sons and I are headed to Huntington at the end of next week to see some baseball, and I'm trying to get some reserved seats for the Thursday and Friday games. I'm just really wanting to avoid SeatGeek fees if I can. Any ideas?

    Thanks in advance.

    We attended our first game this past Saturday.  I was under the impression that we would have to purchase $10 standing room only tickets.  When we got to the gate, the guy offered us $15 and $20 reserved tickets.  I had also heard the seat geak claim so not sure if that changed and wasn't advertised or what.  We bought the $15 tickets.

    I was reading an article on the Coal Cats last night and it said single game prices are $7.  When I went to the tickets section, it takes you to Herdzone.com and prices are from $12-$20.  Seems nobody is ever on the same page...http://wrvc.com/tri-state-coal-cats-announce-roster/

  • Not a fan of Seat Geek. Tickets prices are inflated and they kill you with a big fee. MU needs to sell tix on it's own and do away with Seat Geek. Not fan friendly. jmho

    Totally agree, although for next weekend's games the SeatGeek cost isn't ridiculous.  $26/seat for Thursday.  WAAAYY to much for a regular attendee, but if you're just going to see a game or 2 its doable.

  • Isn?t seat geek a reseller?

     If so

    Mu can?t sell those tickets as they?ve already sold them.  The owner of those tickets is selling them. 

    Interesting thing to me in this discussion is there are walk up reserve seats available and there aren?t online.

    From everything communicated before the season, any reserved seats were to be purchased via Seat Geek. Only SRO could be purchased through Marshall. Obviously the demand wasn't as high as MU thought - so they now sell them at the stadium. Good for the fans. jmho

  • I would have no problems buying the SRO and bringing lawn chairs.  There are a lot of spots where you can sit on a lawn chair and get as good a view as the reserved seats (if not even better).  Even if reserved seats are available, I would probably still opt for SRO.  I'm almost sure you can also find unused reserved seats that you can sit in if it's still empty after the first several innings.

  • I attended this past Sunday's game against GA State.  We purchased tickets at the ticket office 30 minutes before the game.  Had great seats for $20.

    Did the same on Saturday, $15 reserved.  Just wonder why this hasn't been communicated?  My hesitation on attending a game before was having to purchase a SRO ticket because I didn't want to purchase from seat geek.  We had reason to attend Saturday and was pleasantly surprised to have the option of reserved seats.  Online still only offers SRO or $50 club.

    Exactly, using seat geek is ridiculous

  • Thanks for the information everybody. I feel better knowing I'll be able to pop up at the field and make a purchase. I'll have my two boys with me, but probably some local family will join me as well. Looking forward to it, and I hope the weather holds up for it for at least one of those games!
