MLB tickets
In the last two weeks, we have used seat geek twice. Once for Yankees vs Blue jays and blue jays vs cubs. Each time the seat selection and delivery were easy. I wish the seats were a better deal but each city sets their prices. We are enjoying the appBryandroo

The best
I will never use stubhub again. Seet geek is the best way to ticket. You buy the ticket and you know the price. You can’t go, sell the ticket. Takes 5 days to get money back but worth it. Thank you for this company.Charliebb7

Better than expected
As a long time user of Ticketmaster and LiveNation they end up having so many charging fees hidden and with the whole Ticketmaster fiasco I’ve been looking for a new place to get tickets and this one is amazing they include fees so I won’t have to be bothered with guessing how much more it’d be(•_•).

Terrific
I like that you can do installment payments with affirm. Wish you can choose your seating like ticket master. I use both but this here helps with the larger bill to spread out and pay off overtime.DuckyDozer

About the Rose Bowl Tickets
The Rose Bowl, often referred to as "The Granddaddy of Them All," is the oldest college football bowl game, originating on January 1, 1902. The game was first played as part of the Tournament of Roses celebration in Pasadena, California, designed to promote the area's warm climate. Initially, the game featured Stanford and Michigan, but it ended in a one-sided victory for Michigan, 49-0. This lopsided result temporarily paused the event until it was reintroduced in 1916. Since then, the Rose Bowl has been played annually on New Year's Day (or January 2 if New Year's falls on a Sunday), becoming a cherished tradition in college football.
The Rose Bowl traditionally pairs the champions of the Big Ten and Pac-12 conferences, a tradition that has defined much of its history. Known for its picturesque setting with the San Gabriel Mountains in the background, the game has become synonymous with pageantry and competitive matchups. The Rose Bowl also plays a significant role in the College Football Playoff era, occasionally serving as one of the playoff semifinals. Its long-standing association with the Tournament of Roses Parade further enhances its reputation as a hallmark event in American sports.
Notable moments in Rose Bowl history include the 2006 game between Texas and USC, often considered one of the greatest college football games of all time. Texas quarterback Vince Young led a dramatic last-minute touchdown drive to secure a 41-38 victory and the national championship. Another iconic game was the 1973 matchup between USC and Ohio State, where Heisman Trophy winner O.J. Simpson showcased his dominance. The 1997 Rose Bowl was also memorable, as it featured Michigan quarterback Brian Griese leading the Wolverines to a national title in a thrilling victory over Washington State.
The Rose Bowl's legacy goes beyond the game itself, representing a bridge between tradition and modernity in college football. As the oldest bowl game, it has been a stage for legendary players, teams, and unforgettable moments. Its ability to adapt to changes, such as its inclusion in the College Football Playoff system, while maintaining its historic traditions, ensures its place as a cornerstone of the sport. Whether as a playoff game or a Big Ten-Pac-12 showdown, the Rose Bowl continues to captivate fans with its rich history and enduring significance.
