Okay, so I heard WWE was making a stop in Fresno. Haven’t been to a live event in ages, figured it was time to check it out again. You know how it is, sometimes you just gotta see the action up close.
Finding the Tickets
First thing I did, obviously, was hop on the computer. Needed to figure out where to even start looking. I usually check the official WWE site first, see who they link to for tickets. Usually Ticketmaster or someone like that. Then I kinda browse around, check out places like StubHub or Vivid Seats, just to see what the price difference is looking like. Sometimes you find something reasonable on resale, sometimes it’s just crazy money.
This time, it seemed like Ticketmaster was the main place everyone was pointing to for the Fresno show. So, focused my search there mostly.
Seats, Prices, and the Usual Hassle
Pulled up the seating chart for the Save Mart Center. Man, you spend way too long just looking at that thing, trying to balance view versus cost. Those floor seats right by the ring? Yeah, right. Not unless you’re made of money. The upper deck is always cheaper, but then you feel miles away.
Prices felt a bit higher than I remembered, but maybe that’s just how things are now. Found a section, lower level but off to the side, that looked like a decent balance. Not the best seats in the house, but definitely not the worst. Something I could live with, price-wise.
- Compared a few different sections.
- Looked at the price breakdowns (before fees, ugh).
- Tried to picture the view from the seats.
Buying the Darn Things
Alright, decided on a pair of tickets. Clicked ’em. Then you get that timer, ticking down, rushing you to checkout. Always feels like a bit of pressure.
Went through the checkout process. Had to sign in, confirm the seats again. Then you get hit with the fees. Service fee, facility charge, order processing fee… they have a bunch of names for them. Adds a chunk to the total, always does. Nothing you can do about it really, just gotta swallow it if you want the tickets.
Grabbed my wallet, typed in the credit card number, billing address, all that standard stuff. Double-checked the total cost one last time.
Got ‘Em
Hit the final ‘submit’ or ‘buy’ button. Watched the little spinny thing go round for a few seconds. Then, success! The confirmation page showed up. Said the tickets were mine. Got the confirmation email pretty much right away too, with the details and the mobile ticket stuff.
So yeah, tickets secured for WWE in Fresno. Took a bit of clicking around and comparing, plus those annoying fees, but got it done. Now just gotta wait for the event date. Looking forward to it, should be a good show.
