Stl City SC game one playoff tix. Cheapest $218 in the supporters section up to $1,800 a ticket. Way more expensive than champions league. And the $218 has a $70 fee attached to it with stupid seatgeek. insane. maybe some of these stadiums should have been bigger
 
Love his reaction to the crowd.

I watched that 3 times. Might set it up as a screen saver or something. Awesome. That little nod he gives, like "hey, I have some skill" is fantastic.

Lol same. The nod is everything. So much pride in that nod lol. There are other clips showing better angles of that nod that are great

And why are the first round games best of 3, besides more $$$? First round games do not end until November 12!

Cheapest tickets are $83 - for The Bailey (supporters standing section). $150+ for lower level (except for corners and ends).

cheapest here are $106 and then $200s for lower level outside of corners. but i think these prices were double that before they announced a 9pm sunday kickoff

Yes, but that's for a Sunday night game against the Buffalo Bills. That's kind of a big game here in Cincy after what happened last year. Under $100 for the Colts game. :)

And there are no obstructed view seats at Paycor. Not sure why a site would say otherwise.

Cincinnati Cyclones (hockey) get-in price is under $30. :)

It's actually a fun time, and every night is some kind of giveaway, discount ($2 beer or $1 hot dog), etc. But, they're the equivalent of AA baseball (two tiers below NHL).

You want to see expensive? Check out the tickets for Purdue basketball games at Mackey. Indiana @ Purdue, tickets start at $350 for nosebleed. Lower level are $1,700+ each (for a pair). Hell, lower level for the mighty Samford Bulldogs (not Stanford), on a Monday night, are $100+.

that's crazy. made me wonder about IU Football at this point. I called and they said that they have tickets available for $12 and if you get there early enough they'll let you do the kickoff

I heard if you can prove you played quarterback in high school (JV or higher) they'll let you call plays for a quarter.

On SeatGeek, cheapest tickets for Wisconsin @ IU are $9, plus $11 in fees.

To be fair, Minnesota @ Purdue football tickets are slightly cheaper - $15 with fees.

I wouldn't mind going to another Purdue game (my wingman loves going to any live sports). The nice thing is I can play it by ear on the weather and know my biggest expense will be putting gas in the car. Haven't been to a Bucket Game in a long time (maybe since undergrad?).

My last Bucket Game was probably the 1986 game in West Lafayette. That was the game where Rod Woodson played almost every play of the game, finishing with over 150 yards rushing + receiving, made 10 tackles, and forced a fumble.

@sglowrider i watched the most recent wrexham episode It was focused on their acquisition of 40 year old Ben foster in goal. Pretty interesting. He said playing gk at that level is an absolute nightmare for gks bc the teams are just constantly sending balls into the box lol. I’m always fascinated by how good lower divisions are or aren’t compared to here

Yes. The lower levels are a lot more physical. That's why when they send academy kids on loan, its best to send them to the lower levels to toughen them up. They are playing against men.

The PL level's a lot more tactical

Plus Forster's like 40 now. All the bangs & injuries over the past couple of decades must have accumulated by now.

Hilarious! Someday. In the not too distant future. A bunch of drunks are going to show up at their old man futsal game in Fort Lauderdale and Messi is going to be on the other side!! Futsal is taking over old man leagues. The pickleball of soccer
Huge controversy here in my town as the park district proposes new pickleball courts. The noise!

MILF attractor!

McMurt, need an update on the 4:30 pm ex-stoker meeting yesterday. Also, do you perceive a difference between MILFs and cougars? @larsIU , we need a ruling here.
