Have been watching out for the Killers at the O2 in London in November. Most other concerts charge 15K whilst the Killers are costing 20K.

Wondering if someone can confirm that the SPG suite at MSG is no more?
Doesn't seem like any events have been posted there beyond Sep 30th. Also noticed that Marriott is offering suite redemption for the Boston Celtics (75k for 2 tickets) so perhaps that was the cheaper alternative.

Just out of curiosity...I've seen reviews about seats for the NBA games and the suites, but what sort of seats are generally available for the baseball playoffs?
Looking at the 10K points redemption for a pair of tickets for Divisional Series games and it seems like a decent deal IF they were not upper deck or obstructed view...unfortunately, I wasn't successful in trying to search from past seasons.

Almost hate to post this, as it may limit availability for next year. But my tickets, tent and clubhouse passes for the Tour Championship in Atlanta were simply awesome. Best golfers in the world coupled with the best hospitality made for a fantastic day. Thanks SPG.

To follow-up on my own post...field level seats that would have been roughly $150-$175 each if purchased through the Astros website. Third base line and close to dugout...not the Astros dugout, but not complaining since it was a blind purchase.
Also got an email offer on a limited number of additional tickets they had remaining...

I am looking to gift Lakers tickets (15K points) to a friend who's currently visiting LA with his wife and 3-year old daughter.
The redemption is for two tickets, I am wondering if they are allowed to bring along their 3-year old daughter?
Thanks for your help upfront!

FWIW, I used to bring my frequently son into Islander games until 4 with no problem, 2 was their official policy as well. Carrying him & a diaper bag, often with a fews beers too, also helped the illusion. But this was in the 90's

Staples Center policy is that a child 3 years old and older must have its own seat. Lakers policy states that children under 3 are free, so the two policies are consistent.
Looking at the Moments redemption, it actually says that people under age 21 aren't allowed into the Hyde suites they are offering. Didn't see that before....

I have another question regarding gifting this to my friend - I won't be there to join him. Will that be an issue when he will be picking up the tickets at will call window at the arena (how are the tickets delivered? I have no idea...)
The Moments FAQ says the following
Can I gift my Moments experience to a friend or relative?
Many of our packages include two tickets so that a friend or relative can attend. However, the winning bidder may not resell items purchased through the Moments program and may not assign, transfer, remarket, resell or otherwise dispose of an experience without obtaining Starwood's prior written consent. Violators are subject to removal from the program and forfeiture of SPG Starpoints balance.It doesn't really answer my question, anyone care to share their experiences when it comes to gifting tickets to a friend?
Thanks for your help!
