Does anyone know if it works to just buy the General Admissions tickets? Those seem to be the cheapest on seatgeek rather than vividseats or ticketmaster and then I assume you can sit wherever you want within those sections. I've never been to the Barclays Center, but I'm planning to drive down for the day, and just wanted to check before I buy.

No way this is a sellout. My guess is that you’ll do better at the box office, both $-wise and seat selection.

I went to an A10 Barclay's game sometime in the past 10 years (I forget when) and my lasting memory was how insane the usher was in keeping people to their assigned seats when the place was nearly empty. I have a feeling this was just the 1 usher playing God and it's not like that throughout the arena, but she was brutal.

Any connection to FancyFree? How did you guys choose that bar? in the lovely Fort Greene neighborhood right on the downtown Brooklyn border where Barclays is

We have a member who lives in the area and did a lot of legwork to find a place. There were a couple others in the area that were already hosting other teams or non committal on hosting a large crowd but FancyFree has been great to work with.

Do we know anything new on Keon and Robert? Foot and concussion, respectively, is all I've heard.

I wouldn’t count on that. I went to a Celtics - Nets game a couple of years ago and the usher wouldn’t let my boys go to our seats in the upper level, because I was at concessions and I had the tickets on my phone😁

Am I understanding you correctly - the usher wanted to see the kids' tickets but only you had them?
That seems a bit much. If you're trying to sit down low, yeah I could see them checking. But upper level? Who cares?
