Quick tips for going to magic game tonight  

Post#1 » by arsenal6106 » Wed Dec 14, 2016 10:18 pm

So I'm in Deland right now and in the mood to hit up Magic game.. Game is at 7pm. So a few questions..

1)Best site to get tickets last minute. Not looking for fancy seats. Just want to be in the arena.

2)if I leave now, where should I park for decent price, so I can get a bite to eat and head straight to the game.

That's it. Thanks in advance.

StubHub is where I've always been able to find cheap tickets right before game time. As for parking, I usually use a lot on Central Blvd that costs $5 last time I went.

I can't answer those, but I can maybe offer some other advice.

- Wear an old JJ Redick Magic jersey. That way, if things go south, you can audible into a Clippers fan along with the rest of the people in your section.

- Bet the guy next to you $10 that Jamal Crawford will both score 15+ points and get fouled on at least one 3pt attempt throughout the game. Chances are, he's a casual fan who doesn't know anything and he'll think it's easy money.

- If a hot chick is next to you, put your phone to your ear and start yelling at your "assistant" that if he ever gets you tickets higher up than 5th row again, his ass will have to move out of the country to ever find work again.
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

Its a little late but I guess you can use this advice for the next time. I buy my tix from Stubhub or even try SeatGeek for good pricing. I always park in the wells fargo parking garage your gonna end up pay 10$ for parking but its easy access and you'll never have an issue getting out. From there my favorite spot is Pour House or Avenue for good food and cheap drinks then a short walking distance to the arena. There's other spots around the area too incase you want to venture out aswell.

This cracked me up. I used a combination of everybody's advice and had a solid time. Once again, thanks for coming through!

Don't go to the game if either team is tired, check to see if the magic and their opponent has been playing on back to back games. I would recommend www.scorebig.com to get tickets.
