FOK YOU DODGERS

I'm watching at a friend's house and someone here has managed to get face value tickets for an eventual game 7, CA$500 each. Crazy.

If it goes to a game 7 those tickets will be worth their weight in bitcoin.

He says he's going unless he can get $20k for the pair. He actually got 6 of them but sold 4 to friends already. He still has all 6 tickets on his phone.

Depending on the seats $20K is quite possible IMO WAL.

I wonder if Geddy Lee is in attendance tonight, or will be for any game.

Nah, he's prolly busy rehearsing. That mofo has great season tickets.

Lol. 20k surely possible for aspirational seats (behind home plate, etc) but the current contingent price for good seats is $3500-4000 with a get in price of $1700. This is close to the top of the mountain and price isn't inelastic for sports tickets (even one of a kind). I expect very thin trading up to $5000-6000 but the bulk of these seats are going to sell for between $2000-$4000.

Sure you'll get some stupid rich guy paying 50k for a seat (and some stupid local news coverage of the same) but that doesnt define a market, just one extreme. No one is gonna write a story about the upper deck tickets selling for game 2 below face by 730pm tonight.

If you disagree, you should gobble up G7s. Theyre contingent so you either get a refund if they wrap it up before then or you strike it rich.

$10k is approx $7000 USD so $7k per seat is possible, IMO WAL.

You're saying tickets are still available for game 7 online? YOU should gobble them up.
