Of course - common sense would tell you that him being "one of the biggest fans I know" that the "other" biggest fans I know already have their tickets.
Lame excuse that I hear all the time at work. Yet the same people with that excuse eat out during lunch, smoke cigarettes, drink craft beer, have updated i-phones, drive decent vehicles, and wouldn't even think about sending their kids to school with a brown lunch bag to save $$.
$40 x 9 games =
$360 total (with the option to resale any games on the ticket exchange) --- perhaps we should set up a Go Fund Me Account

HA .... wouldn't that be something. I'm sure it will happen to some fans.
OMG .... imagine booking a flight, hotel, auto for a 3 day weekend only to be shut down at the Everbank Gate with an invalid ticket.

Wow. Pompous and presumptuous. You're pretty special, huh?
Please don't pretend to know the first thing about my friend and make stupid assumptions about his spending habits. You don't what you are saying and you're coming off like a real jerk.

I've decided to sell the ticket at face value instead to one of the biggest Jags fans I know. ($95)
There. That's my unselfish deed for 2018. Good to get that out of the way.
You’ve cheapened your good deed by publicizing it.

Yeah. I regret posting that now. Should have known better.

I guess the core 57,000 season ticket holders are just moderate fans compared to this certain "one of the biggest fans"
.... just being sarcastic. hopefully, at minimum, he's nice enough to treat you to a few beers and food during the game.
Titans fans barely travel to Nashville for the games ..... they pretty much suck when it comes to the ticket market.
There’s actually a decent amount traveling to KC. Nowhere near Bills Mafia level but will be some blue in the sea of red. Regardless, I figured folks in KC would be all over this game but maybe not?
KC is not the greatest football town, and they have been to the playoffs like 5 out of the last 6 years in a now.

I disagree, posting it did not cheapen it for the guy you did it for, and hes the one that matters in this scenario.
TIcket prices are coming down. You can get 2 seats in section 233 (next to club) for $306/each.
Bottom line, most people coming into town from Buffalo or out of town most likely secured their tix earlier in the week so right now, the buyers most likely represent our fair weather fan base that now want to go to the game due to the demand and media attention that has arisen this week. Upper decks are going for ~ $175/each and will continue to drop as sellers are faced with the reality that they are no longer going to get $400 for the worst seat (or SRO) in the building.
