    Not personally. However, many pro and college teams direct fans to them to get sold out game tickets. I'll try to get you an example.


    Yup, You will get charged the price of the "share" and if LSU makes any BCS Bowl they will charge you $135 each. The Orange is $115-135. I'm assuming you got the BCS All-Access one because they don't have the individual Rose Bowl but the BCS one that includes all 4 BCS bowls.

    here you can see the Cavs use them.

    "Cleveland, Feb. 7 - The Cleveland Cavaliers have announced a partnership with TicketRESERVE an online ticketing program, which will enable fans to guarantee tickets for individual playoff games at Quicken Loans Arena at face-value prices before the start of the 2006 NBA Playoffs, or even before the Cavs officially make the playoffs.

    heres a news release about the BCS bowls teaming with TicketReserve

    http://www.keepmedia.com/pubs/PRNewswire/2006/10/02/1849644?ba=a&bi=0&bp=25

    "CHICAGO, Oct. 2 -- The Allstate Sugar Bowl, Fed-Ex Orange Bowl, Rose Bowl and Tostitos Fiesta Bowl have always been among the toughest post-season tickets in sports. Through a new initiative announced today, the BCS Bowls and TicketRESERVE(R) are offering a solution that fans can act on now to guarantee they'll have a seat to all of the BCS Bowls, including the first-ever Tostitos BCS National Championship Game at the new state-of-the-art Cardinals Stadium in Glendale, Arizona -- if their team makes it to any of the games. And, they'll only pay face-value price for the tickets. The same applies for nine elite non-BCS bowls: Alamo Bowl, AT&T Cotton Bowl, Brut Sun Bowl, Capital One Bowl, Champs Sports Bowl, Chick-fil-A Bowl, Outback Bowl, Pacific Life Holiday Bowl, and Toyota Gator Bowl. Here is how it works: Fans log onto www.ticketreserve.com, choose a college football event, then scroll down to select their team. To reserve a face-value ticket, fans purchase a "FanFORWARD," which guarantees one ticket should their team qualify for that event. For example, if someone holds a BCS National Championship FanFORWARD for Ohio State, and the Buckeyes advance to the BCS National Championship Game, that holder may obtain one .../continued/"

    Does anyone know of a travel agent setting up a junket to the Rose bowl? That may be the only way to guarantee tickets and a room, but expensive.

    Count me in for this trip. This is definitely once-in-a-lifetime, and there's no way I'll miss this one. Might need to sell the car for this one.

    No way in hell I miss this. I booked my flight last night....got a refundable flight just in case. I will pay what ever it takes for tickets. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity like TigerPride said.

    I'm not sure yet. I'm afraid to find out. I got our corporate travel agent to book it for me on my corporate card which I'll pay out of my own pocket next month. When I looked yesterday, they were around $475 a piece on Airtran into LAX.

    I looked at it this way...if LSU gets screwed, then I don't lose a penny. If they go to the Rose, it'll be the best money I ever spent.
