This goes to my friends across the water, I am flying out to New York on the 21st January until the 28th. During that time, the Knicks are playing at Madison Sq Gardens twice. On the 23rd, they play Orlando Magic and me and my girlfriend want to go. Are we better paying a large fee in advance or would we be okay to get tickets when we arrive in America? Anyone know any good sites to buy from? Cheers
Hi mate,
I'd say you're probably better off getting tickets ahead of time, even if you have to pay extra.
Even if you wait , and buy from a ticket scalper on the street , you're still gonna pay over face value, unless you wait until minutes before the game, get lucky and find a fella trying to unload a few before the game starts. But that's risky, you can get shut out.
Iv'e been using Stubhub.com. Though I'm not sure if theyre international or not., Never had any problems, and you can get some decent deals. And a large selection, i did a quick check of that game and there's lots of tickets available. Starting at $60 up to $500+ depends on where the seats are. Ticketmaster has em also.
Madison Square Garden just had a complete re-modeling a year ago. The building is fantastic. They did an amazing job. Got this Skywalk way up top that hangs from the cieling and runs he length of the court. And you can sit up there, pretty cool stuff. Get in early and have a walk around.
Cheers
