Pacquiao-Hatton Tickets Information, May 2 in Las Vegas

[Kenny Blankenship]

That's the trouble with holding fights in an overgrown lounge bar rather than a proper stadium.

It's a good arena, holds well over 16,000. It's not the size of it that's the problem, 90% of the tickets (the berst ones at that) are already sold to the brokers before today.

If they offered all the seats for sale to the general public today there would be no problem for anyone to get decent seats.

What did you pay if you don't mind me asking? What was the face value?

$1,500 face value, paid $200

A steal.

where the helllll can i get tickets ?????????????

My friend who was supposed to get the tickets for himself and I failed to get any of the $100/$300 tickets, he was on the phone (constantly busy) and on the site for Ticketmaster simultaneously. What a crock!

He said when he finally got through (10:03am) there were only the $500 tickets left, ugh. Upper deck. I really want to go but that **** is really expensive for those types of seats.

I'm tempted to try MOREBASS's method of booking in Vegas anyway and waiting till the last minute to get cheap tix but that seems like a huge risk. It would suck to miss out and end up watching the fight on a crummy Vegas hotel room TV.

Someone help me out here with advice, this would be my first major sporting event and I really want to go!

If anyone turns desperate and cannot get hold of tickets I will be able to get hold of some myself. There will be no $150 or $300 tickets for sale though just $500 and up.

If you're interested get in contact.

Not really a risk at all. I see what you mean in not having a 'guaranteed' ticket in your hand, but there are usually hundreds of tickets floating around before every fight, and usually by that time, people aren't nearly as greedy or choosy about how profit they're making, but rather are more concerned with not letting the tickets and their money go to waste.

If you're really stuck on having a ticket physically, you can always buy the tickets from a ticket broker, but unless you are willing to wait up until the fight gets really close, maybe two weeks out, then you are most likely going to get ripped off.

D*mn, Oh well, I guess I'm stuck with my $300 wack @ss seats. ****, ****, ****. The moment I purchased it yesterday, I knew I f**ked up, my cousin was tellin' me to just wait till it gets closer to the fight date, then look around, but didn't wanna risk it.




Anyway, It's on, it's gonna be a crazy fun atmosphere, see y'all there.

the ticket situation is bull****, my friend was up and at em first thing in the morning to get tix to the fight, his bank card made him authorize 3 times, by the time that was all done, there was nothing left but $800 seats, and the time it took to authorize his card 3 times, everything got bought up, which was only 7 mins after 10am.

the freaking casino's and credit card companies buy up all the tix before and during the release, they don't give the public a honest chance to pick up tix, it's really a messed up little racket they got going on.

i got my pimp $1,000 seats! Who's with me????????

Thanks for the tip.

Im still planning to go to vegas that weekend so im hoping to the best. I just worry about actually being able to get those extra few hundred tickets with thousands of Brits flying in at the same time.
