    Buying nosebleed tickets, sneaking onto other seats at boxing match?

    Never been to a boxing event before, looking to buy tickets for Froch vs Groves but a mate only has enough money for nosebleed tickets. Is it easy to sneak onto empty seats closer to the ring? Does security check tickets of people seated? Has anyone attempted this?

    Here's a vid of someone doing it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PErg43ZOGtU

    Thanks!

      just be confident, charismatic and wear a nice suit.

      also would be good to create a whole new identity and back story. like you're dad is a big time oil tycoon or something.

        for that fight, good luck, i just went to the marq alavarado fight and i had noise bleeds, but i found a much better seat with my bro in law. that was awesome!

        but for floor seeting at that place, there was security, so we stayed on second level, but i think it was better viewing than some floor seating.

        GOOD LUCK LAD!

          the place is going to be packed, bro.

          at the very least, you'll probably be relegated to your own section / level. i'd be shocked if you can move down to a better level / price range.

          you might get lucky and find something several rows closer. i've done that plenty of times in casino fights, but they weren't freaking wembley.


          this sounds lame, but one of the best seats in a boxing match is on your cough with a big, HD tv. i've been so far from the ring that it was impossible to score close fights. you get home and watch the replay, and the fight looks totally different.

          there's value in being in the building. in 40 years, you can tell your grandkids that you were there. you'll remember things about viewing the fight from the stands, but you'll get a better understanding of what happened when you watch the replay from home.

            Might get KOd by the guy who arrives late and bought the seats

            At most boxing matches a lot of the people arrive just as the main event is starting

              You can likely move to better seats for every fight but the main event.
