Lads anyone of you who got tickets today was it through ticket master.com rather than the .ie site? Any time I went to confirm the ticket purchase on the ticketmaster.com site it wouldn't prompt me for the card security code & sale wouldn't go through? Anybody else have these issues with the website accepting your card. Tried 3 different cards. Mate got us tickets in the end but paid a Grand!!

Weird , rang the bank & they said it was the website. My visa wouldn't go through either. You get tickets in the end?

You can only use ticketmaster.com for US events

This is a great pub beside MSG. The owner is from down our way in Kilkee. It's where I'll be having beers and a bit of food anyway. The Triple Crown.

Anyone get a newsletter code yet ?

sc86

some amount of giving out over the lack of sub 600usd tickets available
twitter / facebook etc is covered in people pissed of after spending 88 to join fight club and
then only have the option of 600 quid tickets

finbarrk

Maybe the cheaper seats will appear on the general sale on Friday?
Or else they have changed the $250 and $400 seats to $600 as they know they will sell them.

Section 311 which is right up the rafters going for $800 ATM. Not much worse seats than them so there won't be any <$600. The first lot they released seemed to be priced a bit more reasonably ($600 for better seats than what's going for $800 now). Only hope is that they amend the pricing back down a bit which would seem unlikely.

Yep. I'm delighted with my seat.

Sec 217 row 3. Looks to be a great seat.

Anyone heading over on their own? :pac: All my mates couldn't make up their minds so I just got a ticket for myself!

Me! Sec 16 Row 3

Yeah. I just bought one for myself also. I'm in 218 row 4. Flying from Shannon on the Friday morning.

Those 300 section seats are on the sky bridge which are kind of a novelty seating area that is separate from the tiers below. Think they normally go at a premium to those a bit front due to their elevated view (it’s actually pretty cool) and the more services, like bars, food, bathrooms, per seat up there. If you're heading over I'd say to go up and have a look at the view.

dashoonage

I'd say there will be no shortage of people heading over solo.

finbarrk

There are still tickets in the 200 sections available for the $600. Well, single ones coming up anyway.

There is indeed $606 single tickets but I need 2 together. I'll keep trying.

music to my ears!

Looking to be a bit out of my price range. I don't think I'm willing to pay the guts of 1500 quid on two tickets with nosebleed views. I'd rather watch it at home with a few mates, cans and a take away

sc86

yes im sure the atmosphere and build up will be the exact same

ironictoaster

Any recommendations on accommodation? First time visiting New York.. Thinking about going down the airbnb route. 3 of us going.

Faugheen

I have somewhere to stay thankfully! Although I looked at prices just in case it fell through and AirBnB seems to be the way to go. Some absolute bargains on it.

Blahh89

Do normal debit cards work on ticketmaster.com or do we have to use a credit card?

spend a few quid of that on a big ass projector, get the lads around and it will be a fine night and alot cheaper.

Swashbuckler

Newsletter code is BIGAPPLE by the way.

beerbuddy

I have 4 tickets for the fight but two lads dropped out leaving me with 2 spare.
If anybody is intrested ping me i will sell them for face value of 635 dollars each.
The catch is they are not transferable so i will have to hand you the tickets just before the event happens.
