...For A Price

If you want to be a part of hockey history in Western New York, be prepared to empty your wallet. Tickets to the NHL "Winter Classic" on New Year's Day come with a hefty price tag.
More than 42,000 tickets sold out in less than 30 minutes Tuesday morning, and if you're not a Sabres season ticket holder, online auction sites like eBay and StubHub.com may be your only hope to see the game in person.
The bidding starts at just under $200 for a pair of tickets. Of course, the better the seats, the higher the price. Some tickets are listed at $1500 a piece.
To view tickets for sale, go to eBay or stubhub.com
Sabres season ticket holders have until September 28th to give up their Winter Classic tickets, but other season ticket holders get first dibs on any extras.
There are roughly 7,000 obstructed view seats on hold. Sabres officials say it's unlikely those seats will be opened up, but if they do become available, it won't be until days before the game.
NBC will broadcast the game live, so you can see it right here on Channel 2.

I just found out, I might have a seat forthcoming.
Season Ticket holders can order extra tickets.
Friends are trying to get extras
and if they do I'm near the top of the list
for one.
