Section 128 blows and I'm still not paying $600 for second floor grandstand. My HDTV and twinspires.com will have to do the trick this year.

I think Section 128 is okay from the front row. They had some front row seats available in Section 128 yesterday.

I've sat in the temporary seating for Derby before (2007) and wasn't a big fan. I will say that the lines for the port-a-potties out in that area are infinitely shorter than the lines for the regular bathrooms, so I guess that is a plus.

I'm late to the discussion so I don't know if this has already been stated, but ticket brokers usually offer 3rd floor grandstand seats for around $650-$700 per seat for Derby Day. If I'm reading some of the other offers on here correctly, going through a broker in the final days before the race might be the way to go.

Has anybody had much luck buying tickets the couple days before the derby from a local broker or buying from a scalper the day of the derby?
