    What's the best place to buy tickets to POR games? This idea of paying more than face value is foreign to me (I'm more used to $3 tix on stubhub for Pacer games... 2hrs before tipoff).

    I'm going to be in PDX for Thanksgiving and want to take my dad to the Grizzlies game on Friday as he has recently jumped on the bandwagon. Single seats on the official site are going for >$23 even on the absolute last row. I don't really care where we sit-- I just want to be there. What's the scalper scene like? Can I trust craigslist in PDX for tickets?

    PM me next time as early as possible. I sold the three pair that I have access to, but can trade other games for this one. I could sell you a tan if they have it or a purple at season ticket holder cost.

    Craigslist is usually safe and a low risk. However, there are usually not seats below what you can get them for as a season ticket holder.

    You might be able to upgrade one hour before the game via ExpApp but think there will be little inventory for this one.

    $11 per ticket for tan and $30 per ticket purple.

    Thanks!

    I bought a pair in purple on ebay for $50 last night. Still haven't received the email for tix yet however. If this does not materialize, I'll hit you up.

    Looks like a pretty good deal. Seatgeek and Stubhub are not showing anything less than $30 per ticket.
