Every year we buy our SX tickets at the stadium (Anaheim) This year we have been told Feld took away the rights for the stadium to sell tickets through their box office and we can only buy tickets through online ticket brokers, to the tune of an extra $12.50 - $13.50 per ticket. I usually get 5 so an extra 67.50 this year. We haven't missed A-1 as long as it's been there and will be there Jan 7th,... but the couch is looking better and better. I know of two people who aren't going just on sheer principle. I think A-1 will sell out regardless because it's the opener, but I'm wondering if that decision will keep more people at home ? Is an extra 12.50 a ticket a deal breaker for you ? Oh, no discounted seats for kids either, every seat is full boat. I was told they would be available "At Racetime" but limited to whatever (if any) seats are left
Sport is on its arse and the people that are keeping it above water , are fed up of getting raped for tickets.
Ticketmaster service fee prices are set At 12.5 %.
Feld you would think would make it easier to purchase tickets. Its not like Feld receives the additional 12.5 % for the 'Show'

I was already going to skip A1 and go to san diego, but the issue ive run into with san diego is that i cannot select were i want to sit.
i wish more people would vote with their wallet. But alot of people do not care i guess.... I'm going to just stay at home.. go moto or mtb in the morning then watch the race's later that night.
An earlier thread on the board brought up an issue about purchasing tickets from the box office at Angel Stadium for the Anaheim Opener. We have discussed this concern with Feld and they have helped clear up the situation. First and foremost, tickets WILL be available at the box office in early December. This change in practice is in response to an overwhelming consumption of inventory by ticket brokers in the early portion of the on sale. As a result, Feld is fighting to save ticket purchasers from being forced to go to brokers, where they are subject to unnecessarily high prices and fees. Moreover, the inventory consumed by brokers were in sections of the stadium with the highest demand. This new methodology will hopefully ensure ticket purchasers have the chance to buy the tickets they want, at the advertised price. It’s also a practice you might find at some other venues on the schedule, so please keep this in mind.
Tickets to the Anaheim Opener start at just $20, but prices are subject to market demand and availability.
As a reminder, all tickets to every event are available online at any time. Simply log onto SupercrossLive.com and select your event of choice for more details.
It’s also important to note that each individual venue on the schedule will feature its own policies regarding tickets, whether that’s the ticket supplier, box office availability, and the fees associated with purchasing the tickets. If you encounter any issues while purchasing tickets or are looking for more information, you can always use the Contact Form on the Supercross site.
p.s. you can use that code if you aren't an AMA member too.

Contrast this to monster jams...they have affordable ticket prices and the stadiums pack with families and fans. Reliant stadium packed with 3 separate shows last year! The supercross crowd was just a fraction of that in recent years. You can't attract casual fans when the prices are so high that only the dedicated will attend.
Oh, and available online with "fee's" that make a ticket a good 25% more expensive..
I'm not sure why they would consider it the best practice for A1 and then......
If I was a promoter and see that people are paying $110 for a ticket I normally sell for $60, I would cut those brokers out and start charging $110 myself. I don't get concert and race promoters.
I guess they have a large number of email subscribers to whom they send newsletters about the event.
Same reason you check in on the air plane
Not sure if it is different per venue, but thought someone with either local knowledge or that has been to past rounds might be able to add some insight?
Per ticket price: $48
2 tickets: $96
Handling Fee $5.00
Facility Fee $4.00
Convenience Fee $24.90
Amount to be charged to your credit card $129.90
If its me , im turning up , paying $48 on the door, or going home.
Would rather not go, than get scalped like that ... may as well say $1 for ticket and $128.90 booking fee, Robbing bastards.
