This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

My best guesses …. by fortune_smith

I believe stubhub de-lists events once they have started, and I wouldn’t be surprised if they de-list this Saturday’s game at 2:30 pm even though kickoff may not be for another 5-10 minutes or so.

The last-minute market softens for a lot of events. Tickets, after all, are the ultimate wasting asset.

I suspect a third-week-of-November home game with a line of 16 or 17 points or whatever falls into this category, even more so if the weather doesn’t look pleasant. But, obviously, there are no guarantees. If I were in your situation, I would probably try to transact in the half hour or hour prior to the game, but not 2:25, 2:30 or 2:35, particularly given that internet access near the Stadium can be erratic.

I can’t speak for stubhub at ND Stadium, but my experience is that the stubhub bar code will work without requiring a download into a wallet. That has been my experience at a half dozen or more sports venues this summer-fall (MLB, NFL, MLS).
