    Im heading to boston at the end of august and want to go see a Red Sox game in Fenway Park. I've had a look online and all the tickets are sold out for the dates im there, however there are tickets available from a ticket agency http://www.aceticket.com at a premium. Having being there last year but didnt attend a game, i know that tickets are usually available on the game days from touts outside the ground, just wondering which would be the best to try and get tickets from, its really crucial that i get tickets to a game while im there.

    THanks

    Those ticket agencies are a rip-off
    Who are the Sox playing?, some games are more popular than others.
    I might be wrong about this but I think they have a thing called a ‘ticket exchange’ near Fenway, apparently it’s a area where fans can buy and sell tickets for face value prior to a game to try and eliminate the touts (or scalpers as they are called in the US).
    If that is not the case and it’s only scalpers (touts) around, wait till the game has started and the prices will drop, an unsold ticket is no good to them.
    Also try Craig’s List http://boston.craigslist.org/, a good source for all sorts of things in Boston including tickets
    If you have any friends or family over there ask them to have a look around for tickets for you from their friends or work colleagues, a lot of people have season tickets and do not attend all 81 home games therefore they are willing to sell the ones they are not pushed about going to.

    When are you headed over to Boston? They generally release more tickets 1 week prior to the game.

    I was looking for Sox tickets for a game in New York in September and found this site

    www.frontrowking.com

    from a link on the Boston area Craigslist.

    The prices look too good to be true, I have e-mailed a friend in the US to see if they have heard of them. If anyone here has I'd be interested in hearing from them.

    I have absolutley no connection to the site in question.
