Just because you want to make a quick buck doesn’t mean you should prey on scalping tickets to an event where people are literally just watching jumbotron screen.
It’s people like you who make actual live games impossible to attend.
Scalpers exist for everything I know, but this is actually so disheartening as someone who has a senior father who’s been a Canucks fan through their entire existence who has Parkinson’s, rheumatoid arthritis, Ankylosing spondylitis, and is starting to show signs of dementia who will now never be able to afford to come to Rogers Arena to experience this.

it for charity….think of the children
Not surprised, this is how supply and demands works
So many FB marketplace scammers too!!
Lol trash behaviour
Canucks should have required ticketmaster resales at face value.
They didn’t allow resales period which is why people went to stub hub
Scalpers are actual human trash, get a real job.
The part that makes it insane to me is the fact it’s literally watching the jumbotron together. It’s not even a live show and the tickets are $15.
Considering how cheap it is and the fact it’s not even a live event, like cmon. It feels closer to a community event than a big sports game or concert. I understand the incentive to flip $200 Drake tickets for $600 or whatever, but scalping for a $15 charity event that’s basically watching TV is insanity
Make the tickets non-transferable in Ticketmaster. The original sales proceeds go to Canucks for Kids fund, and it is design for those (majority of fans) who couldn’t afford the actual playoff game tickets to get to experience a playoff atmosphere. Make these non-transferable so none of them can be resales.
Should be banned from the resale market. The fucking world is going to shit, can people at least try to not help it along for 5 goddamn minutes.
Not to mention the people who stole towels off of seats and left fans in attendance without a towel to cheer with.
Do something aqua
When I went to the watch party on Friday neither I nor any of the people I went with got a towel because people were going around grabbing as many as they could to hoard. Stay classy Vancouver
Don’t buy resale. If you don’t have one, show up and see if they’ll release some seats once it starts. They probs will. Fuck them resellers
I wish that ticket prices were lower, and distributed more to younger fans. I remember during the first watch party a kid won tickets to game 5 while dancing on the jumbotron. He was so happy and excited that his eyes almost bulged out of his skull when he won. That’s the type of fan I’d like to see at the games in the playoffs, not older people with enough cash to get a marked up resale ticket.
Scalping/resale is shitter behavior.
People are literally reselling towels they took from the stadium too, absolute wankers
If you’re out here scalping tickets to a 15$ community event you are literally the scum of the earth. Go get a job for fuck sake
Despicable. This is a great opportunity for families and less fortunate to get a great experience. Don’t fuck it up.
It’s embarrassing behaviour.
I still remember when people were selling Covid test kits
Greeeeeeasy
1. I fully agree that this shouldn’t be scalped. The main reason is the fact that all the proceeds go to a charity. Making money on this is despicable.
2. Not sure why you had to bring in your dad into this.
I’ll be so bummed if scalpers make watch party tickets unaffordable because I definitely can’t afford playoff tickets, couldn’t make it to a viewing party for round 1, and really really want to go to one for round 2.
A lot of us can’t afford to see our team play in the playoffs in person and this is the closest we can get, to fuck over so many people out of sheer greed is just peak asshole behaviour.
You’re upset at the wrong people.
The Canucks with ticket master can prevent price gouging overnight.
They don’t.
This is why Vancouver can’t have nice things.
Lol petterssonsneck. Love it
Agree ! Lay off making a few bucks and let some families finally afford to bring their families to rogers arena !
