Okay, so, like everyone else, I’m a huge Warriors fan, right? I mean, who isn’t? And I’ve always loved going to their games. The energy in the arena is just electric. But I recently did something kinda crazy – I finally decided to look into getting season tickets.
Getting Started
I started by just browsing around, trying to figure out what being a season ticket holder actually meant. I found out that an annual season ticket lets you go to every game at any time for the whole year! So it is much cheaper than buying single game tickets. But also you have to know that the admission to any Club playoff game is not included with your purchase of season tickets. The Warriors may give you the chance to buy playoff tickets in their sole discretion.
Diving Deeper
Then I started digging into the prices. I found out that the membership fees and actual ticket prices for the Chase Center haven’t been totally finalized yet. But they did say the one-time membership fee changes depending on where you want to sit. Makes sense. One guy on a forum said he pays $4 for the whole year because he sits on row 5 in the upper-level corner! I don’t think I’d mind sitting there, honestly. But I also heard some people pay $310 per ticket per game! Another guy said the tickets for the Warriors’ visit to the Garden this season cost up to $19. It is all so confusing! The prices just go up and down all the time, it seemed. But I guess that’s the way it goes with these things, depends on how popular the other team is and all that, I’m sure.
- Contact the Warriors sales team.
- Ask about the different seat locations.
- Ask about the payment plans.
- Ask about the benefits of being a season ticket holder.
Making a Decision
After thinking about it for a while, I realized it would be worth it for me if I went to like 20% of the games. Season ticket holders will have the opportunity to purchase either their seat or an alternative seat. I still wasn’t sure if I was ready to take the plunge, though. It’s a big commitment, you know? And then I found out that season ticket holders get first dibs on playoff tickets, which is a pretty sweet perk.
Taking the Plunge
So, after a lot of back and forth, I finally decided to go for it. I contacted the Warriors sales team. They were super helpful. After all this, I went with some seats that were a little more expensive than the nosebleeds, but not crazy expensive either. I’m still paying it off, but I think it’s gonna be worth it. I can’t wait for next season!
My Final Thoughts
Getting Warriors season tickets was a bit of a rollercoaster, but I’m so glad I did it. If you’re a die-hard fan like me, I definitely recommend looking into it. Just be prepared for a bit of sticker shock at first, and make sure you do your research!
