Ok it's got tickets but not the super cheap ones. There's some for under $100 still.

I believe the timing works like this: from 10am to 3pm today, better seats go on sale (for those who don't have 8-5 jobs and extra money I guess) and then the cheap ones go on sale at 6pm to give everyone else a chance, but only in CO and surrounding states. (Love the fact that many LA stars have second homes in CO...so that doesn't really focus on permanent residents too well)

Then 10am Saturday they go on sale to anybody with an internet connection.

I guess it's better then all the tickets disappearing within 20 minutes.

Unless you're traveling for one of the games, I'm not sure that's possible...

I had chances to buy a few different tickets, but they were too pricey for me. There were absolutely no $24 tickets available even a minute into it.

They should really find a way to create a virtual line, and you don't lose your place in line until you're done browsing all the tickets for the one you want....

They should give priority to people who actually attended regular season games. **** bandwagon fans who only know one player on the team, Anthony Caramello.

Also, all the scalpers make it frustrating too.

Well if they did a priority system, and instituted a menu-based system of purchasing tickets it would make it tons easier. If once you get in line, you can see all available options in front of you instead of having to hit "back" and "search" 500 times, then you can get in and out. The whole search thing as the only way to browse takes up precious seconds when everyone's competing against scalpers.

I don't care if the seat is in the rafters, I was there at 6:00pm exactly and could not get a single $24 ticket.
