Hawk Fan Freakout On Ticket Prices

Seats anywhere inside the 20s were going for 300 as of a week ago. 90 for hillside is not unreasonable at all. Just because you found some sucker to sell their ticket to you for lower than market price doesnt mean that someone is out of their mind for buying or selling at market value.
Most who refuse to pay $90 to stand on a hillside will be sitting at home if they want to watch then.
As a hawk fan, I'd expect to pay 90 or more for these tickets. I think your story is full of sh**.
Fortunately, I dont get in panic mode and make a stupid purchase and overpay for a what should be a 30 dollar ticket. Here's the ad off hawkeyeinsider I bought the tickets from today. It isnt that difficult. Everyone looks on craigslist, ebay or stubhub instead of waiting for a local fan, who needs to get rid of tickets and isnt trying to pay the mortgage on his house with his tickets.
"Hi folks,
I have 4 tickets for sale for Saturday, 2 seats in sec H and 2 in J. I want the 90 I paid, no more. I am in Coralville. email is ****************or cell evenings , days phone"
Should be a $30 ticket? You realize hillsides sold from the ticket office for $60. And in a sellout, face value isnt market value. There is a shortage of tickets, so the market value goes up. $90 is a completely fair value for those tickets.
Just because you've found someone who doesnt care about getting the fair market value for their tickets, doesnt mean that the average fair market value isnt higher than what you paid. ****, id tack on a $50 charge just because you're a hawk.

2007 Iowa/ISU tickets. I don't know why you wouldn't sell as many tickets as possible but that was a year when ISU chose not to.
However, that was the season ISU had the highest overall attendance. The move paid off...
