Need some information 

Post#1 » by sabonis » Sat Nov 1, 2008 11:43 pm

Hey there

I'm from Turkey, I'll come to USA in 1 or 2 weeks and will be staying at Irvine at a friend's house. I want to go to an NBA game while I'm there. Since I'm a Spurs fan and the Spurs are visiting the Clippers on the 17th, I want to see that game.

1) How can I or he (he's living there) get a hold of a Clippers ticket? and what is the price range
2) How long of a journey is there between LA and Irvine
3) Should I have my friend purchase the ticket right away or should we wait till I come to the US?
4) Any other advice you have, will be appreciated

thanks in advance

You can try stubhub, ebay, ticketmaster, or just do a search for the tickets you want on a search engine. I'm sure your friend would have a good idea on how to purchase the tickets.
I've been an LA Clipper fan since 1998 and that will never change. I hate our new logo and jerseys!

Tickets will probably be available even at gameday, so I wouldn't worry about rushing to get tickets.

Have fun in the US!

The only time you have to worry about staples selling out is when the clips play the lakers.

^ I'm a big fan of the Ticket Exchange, good call on providing the link Purp.

The "journey" from Irvine to LA isn't too long as far as milage...but trying to navigate these freeways to make it to a 7:30 game will be treacherous. I recommend leaving at around 5:30 to make it to Staples comfortably (without being rushed).

hey guys, my passport and visa just arrived today. Thank you all for the replies.

I think I like stubhub better because, there are tickets availbe alligned with the half court line. on the other sites I couldn't find any right in the middle.
