Wow The UFC Pre-Sale in Toronto Sold Out In Like 5 Minutes
 
Unreal! We are certainly in the wrong business LOL! My buddies picked us up 4 seats in the 200 level and 4 seats on the floor. I tried to but they were pretty much all gone within 5 min! Crazy expensive but then again this is Toronto LOL!

Anyone else grab any seats?

moeloubani 02-10-2011 08:50 AM
damn so is that all the tickets in the whole thing gone? or just ones set aside for a pre-sale?

InfinityOscar 02-10-2011 08:51 AM

Georges St Pierre vs. Jake Shields Fight will take place in Rogers Centre in Toronto, Ontario on April 30, 2011. I enjoyed watching the interview with Georges St Pierre on Feb 8, 2011.

Shap 02-10-2011 09:12 AM
I was sleeping but got 4 tickets too thanks to a friend :)

Dwreck 02-10-2011 09:32 AM
Thank you for posting this Mark. I really want to go but after taking to Fuzebox about his experience at past events it really seems like getting nose bleeds wouldn't be worth it. I had no idea it would be that expensive. Oh well...

You can't deny the energy in that place would be insane!

Are you going?

Anthony 02-10-2011 09:33 AM
GSP vs Shields will probably be FOTY.

TheStout 02-10-2011 10:02 AM
I got 6 tix. Let me know if anyone needs 2 them as I only need 4. Section 230 Row 11.

Toronto is an MMA hotspot

The only way for the UFC to be more popular in Canada is for them to find a way to put GSP on skates... :2 cents:

Jman 02-10-2011 11:13 AM
What's crazy is someone paying $800 to go see a cage fight LOL ;-)

With that said the tockets prices was brought to you by the one and only French Quebec Pepper GSP ;-)

Oui OUI!!!

unless you are right up close, i don't see the appeal. it will just be a couple of somewhat blurry dudes getting gay with each other.

He?s a very good grappler, probably the best jiu-jitsu guy in the sport, plus now he?s been working very hard on his Muay Thai, so he?s the kind of guy who?s going to try and knock me out standing up and try and submit me on the floor. I have to watch out for a lot of things.?

"You learn also from your victories as well, but I?ve learned more from my losses. When I fought Hughes I learned that I could hang there with everyone in the world, even the best. When I fought Serra and I lost I learned that even if you?re a champion and you mean to be great when people talk about you, you can?t stay on cruise control and stay champion. I learned mainly it?s not the best fighter that wins the fight, it?s the fighter that fights the best the night of the fight.?
Watching this fight live will be awesome. I'm jealous.

Evil Chris 02-10-2011 12:43 PM
I like MMA, but it's true... unless you are ringside, you can't see much of anything.

TheStout 02-10-2011 01:17 PM
Lucky for us we have one of the worlds largest screens aka Jumbotron :)

AzteK 02-10-2011 01:18 PM
what's this a Canadian bitch slap contest?

fuzebox 02-10-2011 01:19 PM
How much were the floor seats?

bronco67 02-10-2011 01:23 PM
That's probably a new world ticket buying record for tapout shirt-wearin, over-tatted douches.

czarina 02-10-2011 01:23 PM
you mean people rather see two guys smacking each other than buying porn? this world is going to the dogs

$600 - $800 but I couldnt get any to show up and I was on at 10 AM. Will try again tomorrow.

TheStout 02-10-2011 03:51 PM
WOW,

http://www.tsn.ca/mma/story/?id=353297

I thought they released them in blocks. 42,000 tickets SOLD OUT

Mike Honcho 02-10-2011 04:10 PM
I heard Manwin bought up all the tickets for his 30k+ employees.

gaffg 02-10-2011 04:29 PM
sportsbetting on UFC/MMA is also picking up.

$800 according to the map GTS posted. I'm not cheap, but that's insane. Probably tax on top of that also.

I guess it is one way to get rid of the scalpers. How much can you really mark up an $800 floor seat? Maybe the first 5 rows you MIGHT make something, but it looks like UFC is pricing to perfection.

GTS Mark 02-10-2011 06:00 PM
There are guys selling floor seats for 2k a pop on craigslist right now. 42k tix sold in like 10-20 min INSANE!!

fuzebox 02-10-2011 09:08 PM
$800 would have been a good price, $2k is normal for floor seats (you almost always have to buy from the scalpers).

irwin99 02-14-2011 05:46 PM
Unless its the first couple rows, I doubt they will get near $2k. Alot of people ask alot, but reality is that scalpers will get killed on $800 face value tickets most of the time. The rolling stones started this perfect pricing years ago.

GTS Mark 02-14-2011 05:59 PM
One of my friends bought 4 of the $800 tickets and sold them for a really decent profit the next day. :)
