do we have a sense as to who is buying these secondary market tickets? is it folks who live in vegas? folks from the opposing cities (ie., winnipeg, washington) making the trip? random visitors who may happen to be in vegas at the time?

by all accounts the "show" rivals other Vegas Strip shows in terms of glitz and glam. seeing Gladys Knight sing during the intermission was pretty incredible, hardly a common sight. in some ways, im reminded of that old joke ... paraphrased ... i went to see a Vegas show and a hockey game broke out. very very impressive stuff, i can see why demand is so high, its like nothing else out there in NHL-land.

There are locals buying Tix.

But Monday's game seemed to have a lot of red.

Im asking: Where is the upper limit?

 

[LadyStanley]

I guess it will depend on resellers. Have they set their price too high and end up with ticket unsold? Will they reduce?

Well...I'm sure the Caps tickets wouldn't be this high if this was their 4th straight SCF appearance.

Depends on how you look at it.

A couple from Vegas bought Caps season tickets for next year just to get access to Game 3.
