When It Comes To Buying Golden Knights Tickets, Is It Pogoseat Or VGK Ticket Exchange?

By Alan Snel of LVSportsBiz.com

For a team leading the NHL in arena attendance percentage of capacity, the Vegas Golden Knights sure have a lot of available tickets.

But the questions is: Do you buy tickets from the Golden Knights’ own reseller, Pogoseat, which alerts fans to individual game ticket deals via texts?

Or do you buy tickets from the VGK Ticket Exchange, where tickets can drop as low as $35 or $25 a seat an hour before puck drop at T-Mobile Arena?

Let’s take a look at Tuesday’s Golden Knights vs Carolina Hurricanes game, for example.

Pogoseat alerted VGK fans today that the Knights are selling upper bowl tickets for $45, mezzanine for $75 and lower bowl for $105. Pogo is also pitching Flight Deck East tickets for $99, which includes free food, wine and beer.

Meanwhile, LVSportsBiz.com checked out the VGK Ticket Exchange site Monday night, when you can buy a ticket for the VGK-Hurricanes game for 35 bucks.
