We also have 2 extra seats up for sale (wife and I both bought a set) in section L2, row G- for face ($106) and TM fees only of course. PM me if you are interested.

Just got my parents to agree to come out for the show. Thay retired a couple years back and we could not get them to come out to Vegas. This will be their first buffett concert. Oh what a birthday this will be.

<<<Happy Dance>>> Too broke for anything other than the cheapies, but L204 row A has me pretty excited. Now Ms Nerd and I just need to find cheap hotels and airfare. Looking forward to this as it will be our first vegas show.

Ended up with two in U17 Row N. Hope I don't end up with a Pole blocking my view like last year.

I haven't been to Vegas before and I have two sets of tickets. Which would have a better view Floor L or U17?

I would go for the U17. There will be alot of heads in front of you in the L Section. I was pretty happy with U16 last year and this year I ended up in U17 is just the opposite side of the venue.

Good Luck

I tend to agree, I would go with U17...but I'm vertically challenged. :wink:

Seriously, I've been to this arena 3 times and I think if you don't mind being on the side, I think U17 may be the better bet. Not sure what the sound is like there, but the view would at least be up close and something other than the back of someone's head.

Looks like I'll be Vegas-less this year. The first show definitely doesn't work for me and this one isn't looking too good either.
what I really mean . . . I wish you were here
