Default Looking for a miracle

I'm considering coming to the Breeder's Cup Saturday card. Will be alone since wife will be laid up recovering form some minor surgery. Don't want to sit general admission, so I thought I would try here first.

Anybody end up with access to a single seat that I might be able to purchase? Would be nice to sit with someone from here and even get to meet some DT'ers...

Thanks in advance.

I'll tell you that there will be a ton of tickets floating around. My group (3-4) hasn't purchased yet, and we might wait since the only ones available direct aren't great.

I just saw some decent seats on ebay section 119 for $88. Face value for those are $80 I believe. Location is around the 1/16th pole.

All those ground level sections are tricky because they are mostly flat...meaning if you are 6 rows back good luck seeing anything other than the people in front of you. I actauuly sat in 119 for funny cides derby...didn't see the race til I got home and watched the dvr.

Probably....if the 4th guy would go ahead and get off the fence, we might buy now.
