Mmmmh... i wonder if this is the right place to write this topic, forget me if it doesn't. Let me say i'm a guy from overseas (Rome) that is coming to USA only to see the Celtics (am i crazy? maybe, but is a dream coming true): i've just bought two tickets for game against 76ers on 25th november, but i'm desperately looking for Celtics@Knicks (22 november, but no ticket on ticketmaster and is impossibile to buy from ticketexchage if you are overseas). Anyone can help? Do you think is it possibile to find at MSG the day of the game?

Any help about staying and touring Boston? I can't wait to stay there

There are usually tickets available on stubhub.com, although a lot of times they're over face value.  Ebay (from a reputable seller) is another option.

Thanks Roy, i'm sorry i've choosen the wrong place to post this thread. Now i'm trying to buy two from ebay (stubhub do not send tickets in Italy)...The seller say he can send tickets by email, is it possibile?

I appreciate also any help about Boston (accomodation, best pub and locals, things to see and not reported by the guides).

Thanks  ;)

Yeah, most tickets these days can be sent via email; at the gate, they'll scan the ticket's UPC label to make sure it's valid.

Just make sure the seller has a good feedback rating (99% or higher, with a lot of ratings.)  If they scan the ticket for you and it's a duplicate, they'll turn you away at the gate.

I'm not sure; it may be that the Knicks allow people to transfer their tickets.  I'd email the seller and customer service at Madison Square Garden / the Knicks ticket office, and make sure they give you the same answer. 

If the seller is reputable, I'm sure this is above-board.
