This query is not directly on topic, but it seems to be the most suitable discussion thread to post it.

Given I live in Australia (about 20 hours away by plane), I've only seen the Saints play live once, which was at the Superdome in 2012. It was an excellent experience, made more enjoyable by the fact we beat the Bucs 41 - 0.

However, in one of the next three to four seasons, I'd love to come back for 6 - 8 weeks and just catch all the Saints games in that period.

Is it possible to do this? Are there always tickets available for home games if I'm prepared to pay enough? I'd hate to come all that way and then find myself locked out of the Dome.

Thanks in advance!

You cannot buy single game seats from the Saints; every ticket is assigned to season ticket holders. Occasionally the visiting team gives up their allocation, but that's only 1500 or so, and you wouldn't know until the Wednesday before the game.
That leaves secondary sellers. I've sold tix for 10 years, and my experience is that the high profile games go for 75-100% over face value, but that you can get other games at about 20-25% over face.
Stubhub & ebay are the most reliable- you pay the price listed. A lot of other sites reel you in and then list a $30-40 service fee when you're checking out.

Hi Scott - thanks for the comments. I'm pretty sure I bought someone's season ticket seats for 20-30% below face value for the aforementioned Bucs game in 2012, but I guess that game wasn't especially popular (and we got them from a scalper outside the Dome right before the game started).

I guess the key point is - if I'm willing to pay, I'll be able to get in, which is the main thing.
