So I was real close to buying a ticket for tomorrow night
$25, lower level section and I just couldn't do it. would of been my first live event ever, but I just don't think Raw is worth it. we'll see.
how have your live event experiences been? |

IMO live events are always a blast. Matches you might think blow when watching on TV become 100x more enjoyable with the crowd and the whole environment
I'm going to the 3-hour 15th Anniversary Raw Dec. 10th. Can't wait

I've been to almost every major PPV in the NYC area since SummerSlam 97. Been to tons of RAWs, SmackDowns! and House Shows as well. I've never been to a live event that I didn't think was awesome. Sometimes it doesn't look as great when watching on DVD or taped, but live it's always awesome. |

One cool thing about live shows is the little things being entertaining. Crowd taunts, and simple spots can still get over and you appreciate them way more.
Want proof. I checked out a small TNA live event this past summer and had a blast |

I guess that could be cool, even though Flair being around pisses me off. But even still that could be entertaining, Especially since Santino is gonna interupt him and call him a dinosaur

Nothing like giving John Cena the middle finger from the front row of a 1,000 person capacity arena and having him glare and threateningly point at you from the ring.
I'll never forget that. First live event. Luckily I just moved to Orlando, so WrestleMania 24, here I come. |

25 dollars man you can't go wrong!
Live events are unreal, even the ones in the U.K. I've been to two; Insurrextion 00 and Insurrextion 01, for the latter I was front row behind the commentators so that was even more unreal. So yeah if any opportunities come up like that again I certainly suggest you go! Also a kinda-related question: I just got tickets for Raw in U.K in April, I got in very late so I brought upper-tier seats row R 'cos they were 25 pound and I thought it'll still be a really good experience. So just wondering has anyone ever sat in the Upper Tier around Row R? Is the view reasonable enough from up there? Like can you see what's going on and stuff? Cheers. |

Would they televise a show in an arena that only holds 1,000?
It was a little house show in Ocean City, Maryland back in like, 2002. I just remember that Los Guerreros were the Tag Champions at the time, and I got to see Rhino GORE a chair into Charlie Haas' chest. |

If you/anyone has the '01 tape I'm on TV loadssss. I was like 10 at the time though lol. I'm wearing a blue nike cap, know for sure I'm seen holding a replica title on Dudleys entrance and after promo-vid for Y2J/Regal. And somewhere later, I think after that match I can be seen ripping some boy's 'KANE' sign

You probably shouldn't go to this live show. Let someone else have your ticket who can appreciate the all-fans-in-attendance inclusive nature of a Ric Flair promo/match. WOO! |

I live about 10 minutes from Harbor Yard, so I really have no reason not to go to the 3 hour RAW.

Hopefully I'll be able to get tickets to the Rumble at MSG this year... last show I ever went to actually was WM 20. And that was one hell of an experience, probably best live show I've ever seen out of anything, wrestling and non

I think the Rumble tickets go on sale late December
Just got tickets to the 12/10 RAW, 3 hour deal so hopefully it'll be decent. |

WWE need to get more 'true fans' at wrestling events anyway, the crowds these days are abysmal. The occasional crowd (Survivor Series) is reasonable. but when compared to the crowds of 7 years ago they still suck.
Not stating anything new here I know but I think we all need to do our part to try and liven crowds up again when we go to events .

I went to Summerslam (NJ) this year with friends and family, and the crowd was unreal, especially during Cena/Orton. The only match we seemed dead for was Punk/Morrison, only because they were smushed in-between Austin and HHH. Oh well.
Another time I remember being in attendance for an insane crowd was that Angle/Cena first blood match from RAW. I don't know how it turned out on TV (since my tape ran out), but everyone was going nuts. |
