Arians to Cardinals fans: ‘It ain’t worth’ selling your tickets

[Hollywood]

This thread is great. I sold my tickets. I got $1,071.10 after fees for $120.00 worth of tickets. I'm sorry I'm not a real fan. I will have to learn to live with myself. Funny thing is I have never sold my tickets before. Never knew I could get so much money for them until I read about it here. $951.10 in under 48 hours. Now if Green Bay gets beat by the Raiders and we roll Philadelphia all guilt will be gone. [emoji14]

My wife is a school teacher here in Scottsdale where a certain old Cardinals QB coaches football. I hope he forgives me. I did donate to his charity for the singed helmet.

I don't know if I'd go so far as to say you're a better fan, but I think it definitely makes a BIGGER fan. We all love this team to death, we wouldn't all be posting on a message board and wasting countless hours of our life if we weren't all GREAT fans. But as far as who's a bigger fan, when it comes to situations like this, it actually CAN be quantified. If you love extra cash more then your team, the guy who values the team seems like the BIGGER fan. Not necessarily better or worse, just bigger. More diehard if that makes sense.

Exactly. Diehard means steadfast, resolute, unwavering, dedicated, etc.

Not just in the face of change, but also in the face of cold hard cash.

this I don't have a problem with. if you're not going to be in town, be all means, sell. I just can't for the life of me fathom selling the tickets, while in town, unless you're really hurting for cash.

Why does it matter why they get sold though, if they end up in opposing team's fans?

You're damn right I claim to be a better fan than somebody who sells out purely for the money. And if that puts me on a perch high above them then good. The view is better in the air cleaner.

You have no idea what that guy did as a fan before he sold out his ticket. That game might have been the first one that he has missed home and away for 20 years. If you are basing the fact that you are a better fan than them based off of one action, you are basing your opinion on ignorance.

The real loser in all of this is me. We have family coming in for holidays, and the guy next to me and I are friendly and he has family coming in from GB.. so I just gave him my tickets so we could both spend time with family. He even offered to pay but I was fine just being a nice seat neighbor. I had no idea I could get so much money for them!!

I also think it means a little insane. Look, I get wanting to make a little extra cash, but one of my favorite things in the entire world is going to a massive game with my Dad, Brother-Not-Ouchie (sometimes Ouchie when we're both in Phoenix) and now Mom (who it took 35 years to break, but we finally did it). Can't put a price on that kind of experience for me. I just value the game and experience more then money.

Technically I gave them to another Cards fan, but he will give them to Packers fans. So yeah....

...and one of my favorite UoP experiences is when I brought my brother who is a Denver fan first and Cards fan second (at the time) to a Denver preseason game.

...and another one of my favorite experiences is when he got us tickets to the Carolina playoff game last year even though I had to witness Lindley in person.

worse yet, he will probably sell them to his Packers fans.

I made note in the 'Roof' thread that I thought Chris and Shane were friends....Not so.

I'm making note in this thread that I thought BIM and Shane were friends.....Apparently not.

Common denominator is Shane. He has no friends... It's all his fault.....

Shane and I are good friends

That is how I feel as well, the money couldn't out weigh the fact that I am not at the game.

Dumb minds think alike?
