For the first time ever, TD Garden is set to host watch parties for away games of the NBA finals. But if you haven't snagged tickets yet, you may have to pay hundreds to attend the sold-out events.
It took just one day for the 15,000 tickets released by the city to sell out. Now it appears that resellers have taken to online marketplaces to turn a profit after tickets sold on Ticketmaster sold out. TD Garden said that the resale of tickets for more than their original price is prohibited, but that's not stopping tickets from popping up on sites like Stub Hub and Ticket Network.
