so how much money would it realistically cost to watch uk duke in the united center
- Thread starter DUNNSTILLFREENALIVE
- Start date
na best tickets online is about 750 a piece so you can go sell a few rocks kwilt and be there...lol, but to make the trip happen in a big way from lexington I'm thinking about 500 a piece
Standing room only going for $50.
Behind the goal up top $100
Behind the goal lower $400
Side top $250
Side Middle $500
Down low $750
All per ticket. Outrageous but because it's UK vs. Duke within driving distance of Kentucky.
Cal's right we are crazy!!

That's a well thought out and rational response. But it requires interacting with KU or MSU fans. Not acceptable IMO.
Wouldnt catch me dead in Chicago. Talk about unsafe with zero protection.
Not my family.

Have you been? It just depends on where you go as to how safe you feel. IMO of course. I found Chicago to be a good city. I only ventured in the downtown area and enjoyed the experience.
Chicago is awesome. Always a fun scene for the Champions Classic ... just sucks it's a weeknight. I want to go but haven't pulled the trigger yet.
Wow what? I don't go places I can't protect my family, and Chicago is villain number one.
Chicago is a cesspool. Next.
Chicago is not a dangerous city. If you don't feel comfortable going to Chicago to watch a sporting event with your family, that's pretty pathetic. Chicago doesn't crack the top 100 most dangerous places to live in America.

Not dangerous at all , setting at 405 murders this year , going to be up from a total of 426 last year .
According to the neighborhood scout link Cincy is more dangerous than Chicago. Not that I wouldnt venture to the Windy city but a significant portion of the city isnt safe .
You could say that about every large city in America. But either way, I would absolutely go to the game and feel 100% safe doing it.
It's not.
If you don't feel comfortable taking your family to a 7PM basketball game at the United Center, which isn't even in a bad part of Chicago, then that is BEYOND pathetic.
You'll be indoors, inside a secured facility with police and security at every gate and every section, and you'll park across the street.
Good lord, the pu$$ification of America is on full display right there
Ha, I was warned by locals not to venture in Louisville as your safety is at risk during the day. They called it a mini-Chicago.
And I would agree, especially with Petrino and Pitino roaming the streets. More dangerous for women for sure.
I guess it depends on your comfort zone.

The are parts of every city that you don't want to be in at certain times. Chicago is perfectly fine for going to the game and for staying Downtown. We will be there for two nights in order to have dinner at Shaws.

I work in Joliet. I just can't justify the prices they are charging for the CC. I've been to a few Bulls games, and unless you have premium lower level seats, the United Center is a piss poor basketball watching experience.
Oh, please don't say that. My lil brother just took a new job with NCSA Scouts in Chicago. Moved up there last week over by DePaul University and started the job yesterday. I have been a bit concerned about safety.
Don't miss out on life being afraid. I have taken my family to Chicago many times and I have 5 girls including my wife! It's a great city. We have enjoyed NYC including riding the subway everyday, LA, San Francisco, Dublin Ireland, Paris (rode the train and the underground everywhere) , London (took the Tube everywhere we went), Rome, Hong Kong, Beijing, all safely by being aware of our surroundings, staying in groups, watching our valuables. I'd say the riskiest place was New Orleans for the Final Four for our win! The streets were filled with Cardinals and Jayhawks (and a few Buckeyes). Come on get out and see the world! My oldest daughter lives in Changchun China, up near Russia and my 23 year old just returned from Morocco! YOU NEED TO GO TO CHICAGO! Great city!
Don't worry about it. I've never had a bad experience there. In fact I've only had good experiences.
Good! Sounds like there are alot who have had great experiences there from all the comments. He is working downtown and from all the reviews, it seems like he is in a safe neighborhood of the city. Riding the subway and trans system will take some getting used to for him. It was too good an opportunity for him and he will be in Chicago at least a year.
You can get a lower for about $225 right now. The only way Chicago isn't safe is if you're an African American selling drugs on the south side of the city. Pretty much all the violent crimes in Chicago are black v black and involve drug sales.
