Hotel help

Whenever we travel we make a place match our bid on Priceline. The 3 times we've done it we've stayed in 4 to 5 star hotels for literally less than half the price of the normal cost. It's wise for hotels to fill those rooms because half is better than nothing. When we booked on the more popular travel sites, we got worse hotels for about the same price.

Only downside is you usually stay somewhere that is a little out of the way, so some driving time will need to be done.
 
I will definately try the priceline thing. Sloanfeld what kind of tickets do you have to the games? We haven't purchased ours yet but we are at a min going to be lower bowl. What do you guys suggest for day time activities? We haven't decided if we need a car or not yet. My friend say we can make do with subways/taxis/buses. (he is from the eastcoast) Where I can't hardly imagine not having a car.

I don't have tickets yet but I will soon. I only have the Jazz/Wizards tickets now. I'm not picky with where I sit but lower bowl is the best in Phlly. Upper is very good at MSG though. I am not familiar with Philly public transportation but Boston has subways or trains if you google it. There are a bunch of traffic lights in the Philly and you will probably get lost. Going to the game least season there was a fire engine with its sirens on and traffic was bumper to bumper, it was such a cluster**** the way everyone had to maneuver to let the firetruck go. I wouldn't rent a car unless you have to. Do research on public transportation.
 
Sloanfeld if you want to sit with 2 30 year old Jazz Fanz you are more then welcome just let me know so we can the tickets. Anyone else that wants to come is also welcome.

I'll get my own ticket but Philly is half empty anyway so I can move around if I want to. I might go with someone else if I can't get a single ticket though.
 
Just let me know either way is fine. I was thinking I should just purchase courtside tickets so I can be cooler then kicky anyway.

That's just the thing, you can't really "try before you buy". If you enter a bid that they try to match and get a result, you're locked in. No seeing what you can get or anything, they just fill the bid and you pay. So, I suppose it could be risky, but I've had nothing but good results.
 
Sounds like a fun trip. I've been meaning to go to Utah for the last few seasons but I keep putting it off. Wanted to do a four game homestand but I don't know what the hell I'd do alone for a week there. We are on the right side if you are looking at the normal angle of the court.
