How to Get UNC Tar Heels Basketball Tickets

If you are a life long UNC Tar Heels Basketball fan then you know how exciting it can be to attend a game. You also know how hard it can be to get tickets to these games. But with a little smarts and a little savvy you can get tickets to the greatest and biggest games on the UNC Tar Heels basketball schedule...maybe even the Duke game. Use these 5 ways to get your tickets.

1. Fans on the Street. I have never traveled to Chapel Hill for a game and gotten turned away because I could not find a ticket. That being said this may not be the cheapest way for you to obtain tickets. Buying tickets from fans on the street who have some extras can be illegal, so you need to follow the local laws before going about this. Before you head up for a game make sure and bring cash and be ready to negotiate. Don't pay more for the tickets than they are worth. Buying UNC Tar Heels basketball ticket from a fan on the street has gotten me into Duke games as well as NC State games at the Dean Dome.

2. Stub Hub. Stub Hub is a great resource for finding the best tickets for the best games. It is also a good guarantee for those not wanting to make the trip to Chapel Hill without tickets to know they have tickets. Stub Hub matches fans who have extra tickets with fans who are looking for tickets. Stub Hub charges a premium for their service so this again can be expensive. Stub Hub is perfectly legal and accepts credit cards online. Stub Hub also guarantees your tickets will be delivered in time for the game. Check out the Stub Hub website.

3. Less Popular Games. If you are looking to attend a UNC Tar Heels Basketball game on the cheap then you need to attend games in Chapel Hill that are held against lesser opponents when school is not in session. This happens the most in the Winter while students are on Christmas break. The Tar Heels will bring in lesser opponents from smaller schools as they prepare for the upcoming season. You can often buy tickets at the gate for these games. Check out the UNC Men's basketball schedule early and look for these games near the middle of December through the early part of January.

4. Attend an Away Game. UNC Tar Heels basketball fans are some of the most avid fans in the country. Many of the college teams don't sell their schedule out so if you want to see a game on the cheap you can always attend a game on the road. I always check out the UNC Men's Basketball Schedule to look for games held close to my home. I have attended UNC Tar Heels basketball games in Texas, Louisiana, Georgia, Virginia, Florida, and even New York. I have never had a problem finding tickets when I head to an away game and I usually find that there are as many UNC fans in the arena as there are of the team they are playing.

5. Distribution List. If you are a real UNC basketball fan then you want season tickets. There is only one way to do this. Tickets are distributed to alumni who donate money to the school, or who are lucky enough to find luck in the distribution of season tickets. Check out the alumni web page here for more information on getting tickets.

Hope these Ideas help you score some tickets this year. Go Heels.
