Elimination Chamber will be held at teh Scottrade Center in St. Louis MO, on Feb 21st.

I just wanted to ask the wise people at TPWW if it is a good investment? I am pretty skeptical about buying anything right now because I just bought Alice in Chains tickets for Feb 22nd and they set me back $100.

Depends where these $100 seats are.

Still go though; just get tanked up and shout abuse

Alcohol will no doubt play a large role if I go. I think I'm gonna try to win some tix on the radio Monday, then I might cave in and buy some "cheaper" seats that aren't nose bleed if I don't win.

I went to Hell In a Cell, nose bleeds and it was a shitty show, I still had fun. I would say go.

Go to the event and take a metal folding chair with you. Find a scalper on the corner. Quick when no one is looking, hit him over the back, take the tickets and run.

Buy the tickets now, on the likelyhood that you wont win free ones, and you'll get better seats. If by fluke you do win the ones on the radio, its a ppv so you will probably be able to get face value for the others.

You have approx 1:7 odds of getting a Solid RAW or better. And about 1:18 odds of getting an awesome RAW.

Mostly though, attending live all depends on who you end up sitting with. If you get a section full of smarks, you'll probably enjoy the show. If you end up in a section full of kids with their acompanying adult, you probably wont have a good time. Unless of course you are a child with acompanying adult.

That's what I'm really worried about. I'm gonna get loaded and act like an asshole the whole time. If I get a section filled with kids and parents they will give me strange looks and the kids will cry when I yell "Cena Sucks." The internet fans will just encourage me and maybe even buy me another beer.

I just started another job, on top of the one I have. Money isn' as tight as it used to be. I might just buy decent seats, try to win radio tix, then sell the ones I bought on Craigslist if I do win them.

It should be a cool two days; wrestling then Alice in Chains.

I'd go, who cares how the seats are or who you get seated with? Just be true to your own personal allegiances to each wrestler and don't let anyone tell you how you feel about each different superstar is wrong. Anyone who says that is either full of themselves and disrespectful of others' opinions or just plain ignorant.

Oh I love sitting with the marks. I love it when I get looks about booing Cena and cheering Punk. I love fucking with em.

Really my last two shows weren't too bad. HIAC I was in a mark-heavy section but there were some smarks nearby. The Garden RAW was just awesome.

I really have no way to judge how a show would be in this day and age.

The last show I went to was Survivor Series 1998 when The Rock beat Mankind in the tournament. I was 12-13 back then and saw some of the smarks, but didn't know what to make of them.

I honestly think it would be a surreal experience going back to a show and messing with the kids there.

Honestly, unless it's one of the hotbeds (Chicago, Philly, NY and surrounding areas) you're likely to get a mostly mark crowd with very few smarks. Though PPVs usually bring out more smarks than other shows. RAW brings out the most marks, obviously. Though yes, it's fun fucking with them. And especially with the parents.

MC from the forums here went to the Bash and she had a mark kid confused because she was cheering for heels.

Damn. That actually sounds like some sick/twisted fun actually. The only faces I can actually see myself rooting for right now are Kofi, Morrisson, and Christian; so it would be easy to confuse the kids... escpecially if were to drink a healthy amount.

It kind of puts into perspective my wrestling viewing habits from 10 years ago - today.

I would have loved going to an ECW show in its heyday and scream "You Fucked Up" at any chance available.
