Mavs tickets: best seats

[SleepingHero]

I had season tickets in section 101 for years and enjoyed it. But if its going to be your only game, I recommend splurging on sections 105-108 OR 117-120. You get a great view of the court and you're right in the action.

Those sections are pricey though. They are premium seats. Think like 250-500 bucks a ticket depending on the game and usually even higher after resellers+ticket fees.

If you're trying to be right where players come out of the tunnel, the players tunnel is between sections 102 and 104. Avoid section 103 as it sits literally on top of the tunnel. Your best bet is rows A-C Section 104 or Row D/E section 102 and to get seats as close to the tunnel on the map as possible. Games against bottom dwellers there are seats usually available there. Doors open 2 hours before tip off (sometimes they let you in even earlier), and your best bet is being there as early as you can to catch guys when they come out for their pre-game warmup.

But another thing to keep in mind, those sections: 102, 111, 116, and 123 are in the corner of the court so to speak and offer a unique angle that might not be tolerable for some while actually watching the game.

If the lower bowl is a bit too expensive (and that's really understandable given how expensive season tickets have gotten under the new ownership), I do recommend sections 208, 209, 210, or 217, 218, and 219.

Seats usually up here can be half the price of the equivalent lower bowl section but still offer a fantastic view of the entire court and jumbotron. Only complaint is that you are pretty far from the action. I enjoy sitting here sometimes because it does remind me of watching the game on the TV broadcast.


Parking is also something to keep in mind. Lexus garage I think is now $30? Pretty insane. Most people park at Market Center DART and take the train in so they can avoid all the traffic after the game. I usually bite the bullet and park in the garage because my season tickets came with parking. I don't mind waiting in the traffic as I've come to learn its apart of the experience.

You can also get autographs waiting at the players garage exit. Luka usually ALWAYS stops and signs autographs there. Every time I've been there and seen him drive out he stops for a couple of minutes and signs. There is always a crowd though so good luck fighting through that.
