I mean, they’re basically just a bonus anyway, but I’d have to imagine that most folks willing to throw down $120 on the VIP tickets (and the $350+ on the AX Premier badge probably required to have a sniff at getting them) will probably have at least a couple of better options. Certainly, I’ve got a couple of King Blades on me, and I’m feeling way underdressed for the whole thing in comparison to the real ballers.<\/p>\n
