Last week the NCAA launched the Men's Final Four Marketplace, a new stress-free way to get tickets to the Final Four.
Through TicketReserve, college hoop fans can reserve tickets in advance at face value. Fans would log on to the NCAA website and purchase a reservation guaranteeing one ticket if their team advances to the Final Four. The catch is that once a fan purchases a reservation, he or she is obligated to buy that ticket.
However, the tickets can be traded between fans in the Marketplace. Ticket prices start as low as $20 but are subject to increase or decrease throughout the season. Reservations are now available for all Division I schools.
