ROCKIES!!!!!!!!!

Its actually illegal to sell them above face value within the Denver city limits. I don't think anyone really cares- although they might crack down a little more for the WS. Craigslist and Ebay work just fine though.

in case anyone was trying to get WS tickets, they will only be available to purchase online at the Rockies store coloradorockies.com. Wish i was in town to go, hope some mags score some tickets

don't sell them in front of the box office and you should be fine if you are scalping, though it is technically illegal to sell them for more than face. I have a friend who was threatened with jail time and a huge fine for trying to sell tickets even for face value in front of the Red Rocks box office once.

This article talks about selling on property. Are the official rules listed anywhere?

Undercover scalping bust yields dozens of tickets to NLCS games

DENVER - The biggest tickets in town right now are to Colorado Rockies playoff games, so police are putting extra undercover officers on the streets, ferreting out ticket scalpers.

It's an effort that led to an unusually large bust Wednesday afternoon. Denver Police say they arrested a man who had nearly 60 tickets he'd bought for $3,090 that they say he was hoping to sell for $14,220.

Police say the man was approaching people at Coors Field who'd been turned away at the ticket window- since the National League Championship Series is sold out.

The undercover officer behind Wednesday's bust says citizen complaints are helping them crack down on scalpers.

"Citizens were calling in and saying people are selling tickets for five, six, seven times what the face value is. and that's where our administration said 'you need to go out and take care of it.' Hopefully by getting the word out, they're going to know we're going to be out there all weekend, and if they make it to the World Series, we'll be there too," said the unidentified officer.

Officers say traveling ticket scalpers turn up in Denver when major sporting events are held here.

Police say this man lived in Denver and they believe he was an amateur because they say professional ticket scalpers usually don't have so many tickets on them at one time, in case they get caught.

Police say the 58 tickets were taken into evidence and the man will face misdemeanor charges.

Selling tickets on Coors Field property, even at face value, is illegal.

I'm sure the laws are in the city code somewhere. Here's the breakdown:

Can't sell ANY TICKETS for any price ON Coors Field property.
Can't sell tickets for more than face value within Denver city limits.
You can sell tickets for any amount outside of the city of Denver.

Of course, this differs for every state (and maybe most cities too).

Is anyone aiming for a particular section?
Papaghanoush? what seats are you going to try to buy?
I'd rather not spend $250, but would not mind being in the same section as some of you.

Or is there no option to pick placement?

Are the Rockies back to 10,000 people per home game?

the bandwagon rox fans are curious why you waited til now to bring up your dodger's fandom. they say a real fan would have talked some shit before friday's game

[smmokan]

I think they'll be OK in the long run... parts here and there are clicking, but they can't get everyone to play well together.

Personally I think part of it is Hurdle fucking with the lineup every goddamn game. Seriously, pick a lineup and go with it- let guys get familiar with their roles. Switch it up for L/R matchups, but leave it alone. Plus, play Spilborghs more.

Give him time ... after all, he's a REAL New Yorker these days after a year or two.
