Question: I tried selling two Center Court, 3rd Row Basketball Tickets for a Big Ten game on SeatGeek last year and ate the tickets. Any Success?

Can you request it and provide?

Otherwise I think this is stale information or wasn’t factual to begin with.
It’s 100% factual at the time of the information. Lmao no I am not filing an open records request for you. You can choose to not believe it. Ignorance is bliss as they say.

I am not asking you to send recordings of your conversations with high school football coaches about recruit commitments, which is less credible than an organization with direct ties to the athletic department. Especially when others in thread who communicated with knights of the raritan have been told the same thing.

I know you’re just busting balls, mostly.

Your just said earlier in this thread your information was from the Fall of 2022.

I’m 99% positive last season (2023) was the first year we officially partnered with Seat Geek.

Prior to that it was Stubhub (2022).

So your information is almost certainly outdated.

If you’re going to tell us this is factual and it can be easily requested then why not request it?

Otherwise maybe stop trying to pretend that information from 2 + years ago with a different ticket broker is still good information or that this represents the “deal Hobbs signed” present day.

If you’re referring to my information on Sidwar I have direct contact with multiple Lasalle coaches who were on the prior staff lol, but nice try.

I am referring to that. And you missed what I said about it. I said I believe it. But it’s less credible that you said a coach says it than when I say a reputable Rutgers organization says it, and someone else verifies it.

Choosing to bust balls over something inherently credible is the what I was making a point of.

Again I don’t know what you’re getting at. I said that was a deal in reference to other people who mentioned Rutgers sells tickets to third parties so why would we hold ticket holders to a different standard. I then said the information could be outdated.

Not sure what got in your craw today.

Let’s rehash how this played out…

Your first post said “Rutgers gives 1,000 basketball to their third-party seller every home game”. Your statement insinuated this was current practice today.

Then when questioned on this by multiple posters, your second post said this was true as of last Fall (2023).

Then when questioned further, you say this was actually true as of Fall 2022.

In reality in the Fall of 2022 we used a completely different ticket broker which would mean this amount 1) outdated and also most likely 2) not accurate today.

You then come back in and state “this is the deal Hobbs signed”…as if the deal you’re talking about still exists (it doesn’t - it was replaced with a SeatGeek deal).

It’s really a silly topic but another thread where you purposely state or insinuate things in a certain way that isn’t actually reality.

Reached out in interim, still 1,000 in SOW.

Hahaha yea that clause in the SOW isn’t getting fulfilled then.

You still talking about the Stubhub SOW?

And for the record I was never saying that you were lying about what KTR said. My point was that this isn’t up to date or accurate. If it was there would be more than the 50-150 ticket listings available on SeatGeek for the non-conference games over the next few weeks (this amount includes tickets posted by season ticket holders as well….so the actual # posted by SeatGeek is even less).

So this solves the mystery of who's ticket those are when watching games on TV and seeing visiting fans in those exact seats.
 
With all due respect, several points:

1) rutgers has a right to allocate tickets to season ticket holders and/resellers any way they wish to, and change the rules any way they want to... To revoke or assign tickets any which way they wish to. To the poster who says he'll sue and win: no way you have a case. You do not own "rights" to your tickets from year to year. Now, can rutgers revoke your tickets within the season once you have paid and "received" them? That I don't know. They may need cause. But for the next season? At least until they sell you the next season the tickets are rutgers' to do with them as they wish.

2) sometimes, for either occasional games or even blocks of games, a season ticket holder may not be able to attend or use some or maybe even most or all of their tickets. Maybe health, or business travel, or temporary relocation. But the tickets are "owned" and fully paid for by that season ticket holder. Who is anyone on this board to tell said ticket holder what to do with their tickets? Maybe a ticket holder needs the money from an above cost sale. Maybe a ticket holder can't afford the entire season, and the only way they can afford to go to only some games us to sell other games at well above their cost to recoup or offset their expense of buying the entire season.

3) and some have suggested if a ticket holder can't go to the games they should not buy the season tickets and let someone else who was shut out get season tickets. Except there are "points" granted for consecutive seasons as a ticket holder which would then be list if a ticket holder gives up their seats for just one season even. Also, I can personally attest to the non-dollar cost of giving up seats for just ONE season: I gave up 3 fantastic seats in the 100 level for JUST ONE SINGLE SEASON due to health considerations plus temporary job-related relocation, taking one 300 level seat to maintain a multi-decade consecutive season ticket holding point bonus. And because of that I am now shut out of the 100 level seats... Just one season doing that. I should have kept my seats and sold every game.

4) some say ticket holders should only sell to rutgers fans. The only way to do that is to sell on this board... And to reveal one's private contact info on a public board. No way would I put on this board my email or phone number. And not even sure I'd want to reveal those in a chat room. I feel that is a huge security risk.

5) why do fans without tickets, who either were unwilling to purchase a season ticket package, or even we're shut out the last 2 seasons after NOT shelling out money for the years the way some had when the tickets were less popular, have a "right" to buy tickets at face value? And why do some posters think they have the right to "demand" or even to JUDGE, those who have been loyal purchasers of season tickets for decades, or who have given enough money to rutgers to have high "points" that enable the purchase of prime season tickets, if they wish to use years of loyalty and expense to make some profit to offset many years of large expense?
all great points and sorry you got screwed there...however with respect to #4 you really only have 1 email and you don't know you can create multiple secondary one's to conduct such transactions or use things like the Seat Geek Rutgers Discount code more than once?
 
One thing to keep in mind is that SeatGeek wouldn't be showing all 1,000 tickets of inventory at once. They would likely only list 100-200 tickets to make the supply look limited and keep the prices up and then refresh inventory as tickets are sold

That's a good point and was made earlier in the thread. Hard to believe Rutgers THIS year would do that and not sell themselves given the demand and money they would be leaving on the table. But its Rutgers so I would. If Hobbs had anything to do with it then it makes even more sense.
 
If even a shred of this stuff about dumping tickets to StubHub and SeatGeek to sell is factual it's a massive indictment of the way the athletic department is run considering there are no more than 6,500 revenue seats in the building (and likely less when you consider what is held back from recruits, special visitors and the tickets Rutgers players and coaches receive).

Bingo
 
I have fooball and basketball season tickets. On rare occasion I resold on third party site my parking passes/tickets when a buddy gave me his. 9/10 times I give them away to friends or parents of my sons friends and they are so appreciative.
