The Sharpie 500 Ticket Hawk

It's about that time of year again folks. Yes, it's the time of year to start scoping out the scene for the Sharpie 500, other wise known as the Bristol Night Race. Year after year we continue to sell more tickets for this race than any other on the NASCAR circuit. Something about the night race just drives NASCAR fans mad.

The eBay market for Sharpie 500 tickets is starting to take hold and thicken up with inventory, and the broker secondary market seems to be a tad tight. I am in the opinion developing process on this one and right now all I see are mixed signals. While we are still selling more of the Sharpie than any other race, it is not selling as well as last year and at the same time other brokers and tour operators tell me that it is selling very well. Our current pricing seems to be about the same as it always is around this time of year and you can check it out at http://www.alphatickets.com/catalog/sharpie_500_at_bristol_motor_speedway_414181_products.htm.

Alpha Tickets official favorite driver, Greg Biffle, won again last weekend at the Batman Begins 400. Greg has more first place finishes this year than any other driver and is just 49 points behind leader Jimmie Johnson. You have to wonder about a guy named Jimmie and why he spells his name the way he does. We think that Jimmie may be a metrosexual blumpkin afficiando. The boys will head to Sonoma this weekend to do it all again at the Dodge/Save Mart 350. Greg, good luck to you out there!

Until tomorrow - Adios!
