Have a spare ticket if anyone is interested.

Section 226. Price around the $575 mark.

JoeyJJ · 21-09-2018 1:50pm

Great deal on the flights if you can sleep easily on a plane.

Yep. 6 of us going, and one had to pull out due to a family bereavement.

With the AXS fees and the split of the fight club membership, it's not far off. If anyone's interested, I'll get an accurate, fair price.

Mr. Manager · 23-09-2018 4:42pm

Think I just managed to get 2 free tickets from our account manager. Will post back tomorrow to confirm. Might take that ticket from you if not

Joekers · 23-09-2018 6:05pm

Who is the ticket partner for ufc 230 does anybody know? AXS or Tickermaster?

The Ayatolla · 23-09-2018 8:36pm

AXS

AXS

I thought east coast would be ticketmaster

The Ayatolla · 24-09-2018 7:15am

Ticket sold. Thanks folks!

JoeyJJ · 24-09-2018 11:30am

That esta site sucked the happiness out of my monday morning.

If they don't like your address (work for me) you have to submit the page a couple of times without changing anything before you get a check box to say it is correct.

Happy days. That's class man, enjoy.

Mr. Manager · 25-09-2018 1:24pm

Now I don't feel so bad that the payment was declined during the pre-sale

JoeyJJ · 25-09-2018 2:52pm

You'll have to cancel your fancy viewing party now.

Keeping the table at The Venetian as I only managed to get 2 tickets and there's 6 in the party altogether

And also, I can almost not believe that we've managed to get these tickets so keeping that table for a safety net!

According to Revolut concierge, these tickets cost £6,400 each... and we got em for free...

:eek:

Is the lack of a main event not a big issue for you? I'm not trying to pass a smart arse comment I'm genuinely interested to hear.

Ah fair enough. Can't help you with the fight club unfortunately but I kind of suspect there may not be a huge demand for tickets with the card as it is.

finally got into flashseats bull****

i can see the numbers of tickets and seat numbers - but what do they scan?

You should have a QR code on the app that refreshes, also I've read your credit card should work like a contact less ticket but I'm skeptical about that.

You've more hope of getting in by walking up to the entrance shouting "Dana..... 60 G's babaaaay!"

sc86 · 26-09-2018 9:26am

finally have it sorted ffs

stone age set up

JoeyJJ · 26-09-2018 9:35am

Yeah its a joke, im wary of entry now, esp for my wife who won't enter with me as I will be there for first fight she will come in for last 3 or 4 fights.

The Ayatolla · 26-09-2018 9:54am

Ask her to setup her own Flash Seats / AXS account. You can transfer her ticket to her then.
