Guys,
Been a few years since I've been able to pull off the BET - I was wondering how difficult it is to buy tix off the street from the unofficial ticket vendors? (not that I would ever do such an immoral thing, however).
Any sense for going rates these days?
Much appreciated.
-Tex

Yesterday I got there very early - about 9:30 for the 12pm game. There were only 2 guys selling. They wanted around $60 for $25 tickets.
If you go closer to game time you shouldn't have a problem getting a ticket.
Good Luck.

Much appreciated. -Tex There is a Georgetown suite on the main floor of the Athenia Hotel -- used to be the Southgate. It is on 7th Avenue, east side of the street, between 30 and 31st streets. They had tickets yesterday and said they would have more today...at face value. Not the greatest seats, but you're in. Try that. or, go to Cafe 31 and ask Hoya fans.

Just don't do it right in front of the Garden. They really don't like that.

My friend just bought 3 at the Affinia in the 300 level for 50 bucks each.
I should note that he is not a hoop club member and just walked right up. I am a hoop club member and have not heard word one from the hoop club about the availability of tickets.

I really hope it won't be too hard to get tickets. My roommate and I won't be getting up there until 4 or 5 tomorrow.
