I've been blessed with the opportunity to have a good paying summer job at my church and the common sense to save up that money for special things. The money has really gone a long way. Over the past year, I've bought tickets to concerts and shows, a new pair of Supra shoes, and a new G-Shock watch. With my 2011 Challenge basically blown to smithereens, I decided to make yet another huge purchase: tickets to the UNC/Duke men's basketball game! I got them through Stubhub and paid a mere $250/ticket for upper level (aka "Nosebleed") seats.
Call me crazy, but since I had the $$$ I thought carpe diem. Plus, my mom always told me that I won't be able to spend my money like that once I get my own responsibilities (i.e. bills) so I said "let's do it!" I couldn't have picked a better game to go to because, not only is it the best rivalry in all of college sports, but it is the deciding game for the ACC regular season championship!
I'm so excited to go but I am a little nervous. I've never ordered tix through Stubhub before, so I'm kind of afraid that I'll get to the gate and the tix won't work. I've heard stories of this happening before but they do have a "Fan Protection Guarantee" and this very thing happened to my grandma when she ordered tix to that Vince Gill concert through Ticketmaster. We ended up getting into the show but the tix never would scan. In other words, you're not guaranteed being free of mishaps with any ticket company. I'm feeling better about things now and I plan to have an awesome time at the game!
P.S. I will be live tweeting as much as I can while I'm there (hopefully with pics too) so stay tuned!
