UFC 149 was a joke, let's be honest as soon as the main event started i was headed to the door to get first dibs on a cab ride home. There was a guy in front of me searching **** on his phone and then later falling asleep during the Lombard/Boetsch fight.

As a fan i stand on the side of watching a fight at home regardless of the PPV costs. I will NOT be going to another UFC event outside of having floor seats or somewhere in the aisle the fighter exit/enter in.

Calgary was a very disappointing outting. The greatest upside was that there was not many woman there and my ol' lady didn't have to wait in line for the crapper.

Anybody else have a terrible experience at live events? Personally i'd rather watch at home where i can be as vocal as i want, cheaper beer and better food/company trumps going live IMO.

    I've only been to minor league (King of the Cage) events live, and it's hard to see the action clearly through the cage. The most expensive seats don't have the best view.

    We didn't have great seats $320 a piece but all you're paying for is the experience and that fell short in my mind.
    Outside of the cost i'd say the crowd was the worst thing to deal with. Dbag central.

    I would be upset if I spent $320 a ticket too and they weren't cageside. Have never spent more than $100 a ticket and have had decent seats each time.

    Don't judge all events off of one bad experience. For me the smaller weight classes don't translate well in a stadium and it's hard to keep interest when it's fighters you don't have interest in but when it's a big fight, their's really nothing like it watching it live. Saw Sonnen/Bisping in Chicago last year and the stadium was electric. Just wait for big card or big fight and give it another shot man.

    I paid 60 bucks for a nosebleed seat at UFC 150 Henderson vs Edgar 2.

    Some say the fights sucked that night but I enjoyed them.

    My biggest complaint was the uneducated Denver fans. They were terrible. I even posted a thread about how horrible they were! lol

    I would like to pay some more money and get a good seat in the future, but I do enjoy the comfort of my big screen in my living room.

    I spent 300 on Bendo vs Diaz. I was 8 rows back from the cage. Totally worth it
    Be polite, be professional, but have a plan to kill everybody you meet.
