Anyone know how much it costs for one of those luxury suites?  About how many people does it hold?  Anyone ever done it; are they nice do they give you anything else with it?

What do you think the price would be for that opening game against Miami?

If you're gonna pay that much just get a seat closer so you can better see us whipping the Heat.
Philly:

Anderson Varejao    Tiago Splitter    Matt Bonner
David West    Kenyon Martin    Brad Miller
Andre Iguodala    Josh Childress    Marquis Daniels
Dwyane Wade    Leandro Barbosa
Kirk Hinrich    Toney Douglas   + the legendary Kevin McHale

The idea is to have friends/family there with me, more of a treat for them then for me.

Never done it, but I get emails from the Celtics with info about them.  It's crazy expensive.   The suites hold about 18-20 people, and the price varies depending on the night and opponent, so you'd pay the least for a Tuesday against Philly, something like that.

For the cheapest games, a suite including food is gonna run you over $2500.  The Lakers and the midseason Heat game are over $10 grand, and opening night simply says "Call for Pricing."  I think you know what that means.

Anyway, a Friday night game against a random team would probably run you $200 per person.

No idea, but it's going to be *a lot*.  You can't find balcony seats for less than $180 right now.

I'm pretty sure the luxury suites hold 18 people.

Have sat in one a few years back with our companies box. I wasn't that impressed. I agree with the idea of getting seats down low as it is a much better experience, however understand the idea of being all together. I think you'd be better off getting a room at a restaurant before or after for that social part and then getting better seats down low.

Thanks for the info guys...agreed $100 per person for the worst of games or $500 per person for a good game just isn't worth it.
