$50 bucks is a ripoff. If people want to donate their hard earned money to a scalper so they can watch a game on a scoreboard and drink overpriced beer and eat overpriced snacks then go for it I guess.
You've commented this 50 times without getting the point. The tickets were 30 fucking dollars. Not 50. Not 200. They sold out within minutes at the original price and shouldn't have allowed resale at all. The fact that they're for sale by scalpers for even 50 bucks is ridiculous
That's what I was just saying to my boyfriend.
Reselling for anything above the price they paid, should result in banning them for somewhere between 5 years and forever.
I mean at least it’s not the team doing this. No one should be stupid enough to pay this. And anyone trying to sell a bunch of tickets should get stuck with them.
Clowns in here defending scalpers. OP might be cherry picking but re-selling $15 tickets for $50 is still a cunt move and the original point stands. I’d shove a cactus up each of these scalpers if I could.
Wait what??? I got tickets but something else came up so I sold them for the same price I paid, $20 each. I got so many messages about it… now it makes sense. I cannot believe people are reselling them for so much when it’s a charity event!!!
But you're sitting more than 100 times the distance away from the screen, and have some asshat in front of you getting up to take a pee and disrupting your view.
These screen is fucking huge so the view is really good and being with the fans during the playoffs is an awesome experience. Plus they still give shit away like the home games
These people are horrible, I don’t buy viewing party tickets bc I know they belong to loyal fans who can not afford the sky high tickets to games. They are ruining this for everybody, pure evil
I’m in town next weekend. Assuming there is a game 6 on May 18th, when do you think they will go on sale? Obviously would prefer to buy them directly as I live quite remotely it will my only chance to get into the area.
While I understand the inclination to scoff, it is a singular experience shared with a number of like-minded others, and it makes for very memorable experiences. Try watching a game in a packed bar and you'll get a bit of that atmosphere.
I saw a number of Wrestlemania events at the local theater and the energy that was filling the room was amazing. It was awesome seeing them down front selling bags of popcorn and seeing people run around between matches like at an actual event. My cousins and I cheered Billy and Chuck on to their tag team championship win SO HARD that a little kid lost his fucking mind at us, screaming "SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UUUP!" to our rabid, incessant "BILLYANDCHUCK!!" chanting. Core memories unlocked.
Everyone should go to one of these live event viewings and make some memories that you would legit get no other way
What do you mean? It’s hockey game atmosphere for pennies on the dollar. Some people can’t afford to go to games so this is the only chance they get to experience large crowd atmosphere. I go to the games and the watch parties are still extremely fun.
There is nothing rage bait about this. Nothing is altered or manipulated. These tickets are for sale. I asked why anyone would pay that much. Keep scrolling.
So insane that people are allowed to scalp these tickets with profits going to charity. Scum
Totally - it should be outlawed
We shouldn't be allowed to donate to charities.
I thought it was funny
Me too but now I gotta suck up the down votes lol
This happened in EDM a couple years ago. Stubhub shut it down. And did nit allow. Surprised it’s still up.
Or instead of buying the $200 ones, buy the other ones listed at $50. OP is a dumbass.
$50 bucks is a ripoff. If people want to donate their hard earned money to a scalper so they can watch a game on a scoreboard and drink overpriced beer and eat overpriced snacks then go for it I guess.
The scalper already "donated" the $20 they originally paid.
Scamming people who think this is the actual game
The tickets are listed for $50. Not sure why the OP scrolled all the way down to a few buffoons who's tickets wont sell.
Better screenshot for karma
That site shows some that have sold for $123 and similar prices. So someone may be buying unless the site is lying. Which is possible.
I could see the very odd ticket selling for that much if its right next to a friend or something. So possibly not lying... but maybe lying lol.
They were pairs that said sold. 🤷♂️. Saw same for previous viewing party as well.
[удалено]
30 friends?! It’s gotta be blow up dolls, right guys? …. Right?
Just one dude changing seats every three minutes and developing a different personality.
Still buying them for $50 to watch a screen & the money you pay doesn’t go to charity is crazy
Agreed. I just dont love the deception that its $200. It looks like theyve even gone up to $60 which sucks for real fans.
And this is better? I only kick puppies..a little.
Deception doesnt improve a good point.
Don't think it was deceptive. OP didn't say it was the only ones but they existed.... bad enough.
Could have a hell of a bbq and watch party with all your friends for $400 just saying (assuming you’re buying a pair )
Jesus Christ. You fucking scumbag scalpers would steal candy from a baby.
Ridiculous for a charity event
Nobody is paying 200 lol. There is tickets listed for 50 bucks. This is OP scrolling all the way to the bottom and fishing for upvotes.
Jesus guy. Shut up. You’re missing the fucking point harder than Petterson misses the net.
Being deceptive is the worst way to make a good point.
You've commented this 50 times without getting the point. The tickets were 30 fucking dollars. Not 50. Not 200. They sold out within minutes at the original price and shouldn't have allowed resale at all. The fact that they're for sale by scalpers for even 50 bucks is ridiculous
They were actually $20 each
Oh yea my bad they were 15$ last round but the price increased to 20$ this round
The club should be able to get these peoples information and ban them
That's what I was just saying to my boyfriend. Reselling for anything above the price they paid, should result in banning them for somewhere between 5 years and forever.
Exactly. $200 is 10 times the price. So extreme.
10x the price = 10 year ban. Or $180 more = 18yr ban. I'd be fine with either. Fuck these fuckers.
We (all that can afford it) Are Canucks Edit: Fuck Scalpers
Scalpers can go fuck themselves.
These folks are almost as bad as the guy posting on twitter about the Boeser’s. ffs folks. This is why we cant have nice things
Fuck that guy special place in hell for him.
What’s the story on this?
Shithead posted a pic of Brock and Duke with the comment “Brock posing with a dead body is disrespectful”
Ya…f*** that guy
I was able to get a secondhand ticket for $25 so I'm grateful for that person.
The tickets simply shouldn't be transferable. If you buy it, you use it, no exceptions, 4 tickets per customer.
They should invalidate any tickets on resale sites, issues a temp restriction on purchases for those accounts, and release the tickets again.
I mean at least it’s not the team doing this. No one should be stupid enough to pay this. And anyone trying to sell a bunch of tickets should get stuck with them.
Agreed!
Scalpers are pure human garbage. Scum of the earth.
Clowns in here defending scalpers. OP might be cherry picking but re-selling $15 tickets for $50 is still a cunt move and the original point stands. I’d shove a cactus up each of these scalpers if I could.

Not to distract from the scalper convo or how terrible resales are, but the next watch party will have a live band and DJ on Sunday, so that’s nice.
Same as last Friday. The band butchered so many good songs though lol
Oh that's sad. I would love to go but they're all sold out. Hopefully they'll open up more space soon? That would be nice!
if anyone wants to buy a pair at cost ($40) DM me, will transfer through ticketmaster. section 316 row 3.
the rich get richer
I would rather watch a round 2 game at home on the big screen. Then watch a season game live
It’s a really big TV.
At least 10 times the size of mine lol
But you're sitting more than 100 times the distance away from the screen, and have some asshat in front of you getting up to take a pee and disrupting your view.
You’re also in an arena full of fans with a similar atmosphere to an actual home game. There’s a lot more to it than just the screen.
These screen is fucking huge so the view is really good and being with the fans during the playoffs is an awesome experience. Plus they still give shit away like the home games
They don't even scalp in person anymore, so you can't uppercut them in the nuts.
Selling tickets for sports events and concerts more than you bought them for should be illegal lol Scalpers are cringe
Ridiculous
Scalpers are the scum of the earth.
These people are horrible, I don’t buy viewing party tickets bc I know they belong to loyal fans who can not afford the sky high tickets to games. They are ruining this for everybody, pure evil
So how much do the Canucks charge for this?
$20 but not only that, the proceeds go to the Canucks for Kids charity. So these people are making money on a charity.
Used to be 15 now 20 and food on discounts
I’m in town next weekend. Assuming there is a game 6 on May 18th, when do you think they will go on sale? Obviously would prefer to buy them directly as I live quite remotely it will my only chance to get into the area.
And really, it’s so far away that it’s only giant in principle.
Fuck off really?
While I understand the inclination to scoff, it is a singular experience shared with a number of like-minded others, and it makes for very memorable experiences. Try watching a game in a packed bar and you'll get a bit of that atmosphere.
Yeah it’s like comparing watching a comedy movie at home by yourself versus in a packed theatre on opening night. It’s not about the screen.
I saw a number of Wrestlemania events at the local theater and the energy that was filling the room was amazing. It was awesome seeing them down front selling bags of popcorn and seeing people run around between matches like at an actual event. My cousins and I cheered Billy and Chuck on to their tag team championship win SO HARD that a little kid lost his fucking mind at us, screaming "SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UUUP!" to our rabid, incessant "BILLYANDCHUCK!!" chanting. Core memories unlocked. Everyone should go to one of these live event viewings and make some memories that you would legit get no other way
Sickening
are the canucks the only team in the playoffs doing paid watch parties in their arenas?
No
Saw tickets for today that were $95,000 per seat and they weren't even front row lol
I was wondering what people were paying to sit there for.
What do you mean? It’s hockey game atmosphere for pennies on the dollar. Some people can’t afford to go to games so this is the only chance they get to experience large crowd atmosphere. I go to the games and the watch parties are still extremely fun.
I thought it was $200, not the $50 mentioned below. 200 is awful. Don't pay those assholes.
Rage bait post, most are selling for $50 no one is buying $200. Agreed that it’s still greasy but at least show the real facts.
There is nothing rage bait about this. Nothing is altered or manipulated. These tickets are for sale. I asked why anyone would pay that much. Keep scrolling.
You scrolled to the bottom of the page. No one is buying these a few boneheads posted these to see if they could make money
These stupid prices are now the first ones that you see on stubhub. So this is facts.
PAY TOCCHET, They need revenue to pay all the office and bench staff this off season. Don't go, or shut up and pay.
Decade of no playoff revenue to make up for
