I'm now back to Canada to plan my next adventure!
Enjoy!

Thanks for not making this video an unnecessary 18:00 long. Loved every second. Subbed
Not a problem Brady. Those videos annoy me also, so I try to cut out seconds everywhere I can. Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the support:)
W comment, i wish more youtubers would do the same and quit wasting my god damn time.
@@GTOviewer It’s honestly something I hate about this platform. Many creators stretch their videos just to get revenue for mid roll ads.
First off, if I ever have a video that long I don’t allow mid roll ads because you shouldn’t have a commercial break in a 8 minute clip. It’s brutal.
Second with my roots in stand up, most of my videos are scripted so that I can trim the fat and make it punchier. It gets to the point where before I finish the edit I’ll even be circling back to remove tiny gaps between sentences shaving seconds in all pauses if I think it won’t affect the comedic timing.
I really pride myself in it, so that means a whole lot:)
@MattWatsonComedy that's nice, maybe you could shorten up these replies though bro, I ain't here to read a novel lol 😆 😂 jk
@@GTOviewer As I hit post I was literally thinking “I’m getting pumped for this long reply.” Well done:)
YES Yes yes and YES, the key in this lesson is "busy isnt always bad" its actually great in how workers are busy and running around and stressed and distracted.
I'm glad you liked the video and were able to take something away from it! Best of luck out there fellow Wanderer:)
After all the crimes the Leafs have perpetrated on their fans over the years, glad you made it inside. Not sure about your choice in teams, though.
Leafs = Best
@@007Hutchingsbest at choking.
Leafs = worst
theres a much easier way to sneak in.
NEar customer entrance 5, if you go around the building to your right, there are double doors for staff who go on smoke breaks, just go in through there and you'll make your way to a service elevator which will bring you to any level you want.
Now we’re talking! Thanks for sharing:)
omgosh...😅
@@JC-be4fu I just find this stuff so compelling:)
@@MattWatsonComedyyou should do a video doing that way one day
@@moneydynamicmatanya9541 Oh it’s in strong consideration;)
Back in the 90's I snuck into easily 40-50 Flames games. I knew the secrets. A renovation took away my go to entry, so I only was able to pull off a few after the reno. Best part is the wives of the players used to have a room below with couches and fully catered. I'd sit in there eat the tasty food and then second period wander up and find an empty seat :P
I love every word of this!
Especially the part where you’re picking off a fully stacked buffet with the wives of all the players. Legend. Thanks for sharing such a stellar story:)
The closest I've come to sneeking into anywhere was the time as a young teenager I snuck out of and back into my house for all of 5 minutes late one night to retrieve something I'd left in my friends driveway earlier when hanging out with him.
HAHA I'm not one to break the rules.
OMG I won’t tell anyone you did this;)
Secret is safe with me:)
As a Habs fan..great video!! I used to sneak into some local games as a kid back home years ago but yours was epic. My best offence claimed was a backstage seat of The Tragically Hip after being up on the top row with lousy views before the concert and made my way through security. The trick..act you belong there. Thanks for the laugh.
All that kindness from a Habs fan to a Leafs fan?! You must have a gentle soul.
Wish I would have seen the Hip on their prime, so I’m glad you got to from backstage:) Thanks for sharing!
The part about the shoes during the security part had me dead 😂. Good stuff man. Hope you had fun
That means a lot bud:) Thanks for taking the time to share that!
Whenever my brother and I got to an event (NHL, MLB, etc.) we always seat hop. As long as you look for business/confusion like you said and also act like you're SUPPOSED to be there, generally everyone will let you through. Best so far was Fenway Park. We start out in the right field nosebleeds and ended up right behind home plate. One of my favourite experiences of my life. Latest one we went to see the Sabers play the Canucks in Buffalo and ended up right at the glass to the left of the penalty boxes. Was cool as hell.
Now you got me wanting to rope my brothers into these shenanigans! Love that family bond buddy! Thanks for sharing your stories!
In 1999 Canada Games, I had 2 tickets but there were 3 of us going. It was the Championship Game between Alberta and
Quebec, my 2 buddies said how are we going to get in? I said leave it to me, I told one guy to wait out side while me and my friend went in to our seats. I then took the other ticket with me and went outside again. Gave it to our buddy that was out waiting and walked back inside like we just got there. The thing that worked out best was we had one empty seat next to us, so the third wheel joined us for the 2nd and third periods! Thanks for sharing your video, it brought back a great memory for me.
Glad you enjoyed it Darren and thanks for sharing your story! Doesn’t matter what you’re doing but who you’re doing it with:)
Didn’t mind being the third wheel whatsoever lol. Stood up above for the first period to see if the seat would stay empty. It did. The three of us guessed what the score would be. I said 3-2 for Alberta and the Captain would score the winner in OT. Quebec was up 2-1 until late in the third. Then in OT, Scott Hartnell roofed a puck past Pascal Leclaire. 25 years ago. Great memories. And they were free to boot 😂
@@robertlodge4879 Can’t beat that!
I snuck into period 2 of game 4 of the 2007 ECF in Ottawa. When the smokers were out, me and my buddy chill outside the barrier, eventually snuck behind the barrier and blended in with the smokers when they entered back in. Unfortunately the Sens lost, but my buddy from Nunavut had such a blast. Never in his life has ever been to an NHL game or been around many people people.
It’s not what you’re doing but who you’re doing it with! Glad it was a hoot despite the loss:)
@@brothaman007 Seen the whole county except the territories. Been on my bucket list!
I’ll get there!
What a cool heist ! Well done buddy. I've managed to pull this off at soccer games multiple times but at halftime. As people go in and out for food and drinks with the vendors outside the stadium. At half time the ticket checkers are much more relaxed
Looking back on it, it really took se nerve. I like your method, less stressful. Glad you liked the video and thanks for that awesome tip of your own.
@@MattWatsonComedy your story reminded me of that time me and a friend went to a club in Brussels and we acted like super dandy cool dudes coming from London. We told everyone we were artistic director and service manager for the Ministry of sound. It was in the 90's and the simple evocation of that famous club was a conversation starter in the nightclubing scene.
The word got to the owner of the club we were at that he had prestigious clients 😂. The guy came to our table and started to offer us drinks after drinks. That night was a blast. All eyes were on us. Bottles and girls.
We did a lot of impersonation at clubs at the time as we were both quite good at improv and English and internet wasn't around. My buddy even managed to pass as a Belgian prince at some point during holidays in Cannes, south of France.
But our impersonation career started even before we were old enough to go in clubs. When we were 12 we were selling chocolates door to door disguised as boy scout selling chocolates or marzipan for a fake scouting event lol. While our friends were mowing lawns and washing cars we were making 5 times what they were making. We were dirty little cons hehe
@@MattWatsonComedyEver more nerve to post on CZcams not anonymously haha!😅
@@nikolaip5834 May turn out to be my downfall;) So far so good tho:)
This is hilarious dude!! Well done
Thanks Buddy:)

Awesome, lol. One of the Best Series' on CZcams - Tops in the Hockey-NHL scene! Cheers -OAD.
Thanks for the love buddy!
This is awesome.
Thanks for checking it out friend:)
I got in the same place, but it was waay crazier. I have been mistaken for Rod Dyrdek a few times while visiting Toronto, especially when I wear a ballcap. at Scotiabank I was told by security "follow me Mr. Dyrdek" to which i silently obliged and was taken directly to the VIP waiting room underneath. Free lobster poutines and champagne until the BARTENDER kicked me out for not having a badge.
Man that’s an awesome story!
I love how you weren’t even trying to pull anything and security just escorts you to a VIP room. Only way I’m pulling that kinda thing off is with an incredibly authentic mask.
Thanks for sharing Mr. Dyrdek;)
Love it...I'm from Keswick it's a hour north of Toronto. Me and my dad used to sneak into the Toronto motorcycle show by pretending we were kitchen staff at a concessions stand and walk in from the area they throw out the garbage
Father son sneak! What a great memory!
Thanks for sharing:)
that's amazing!!
Was one heck of a night! Thanks for watching:)
I’ve just simply walked in through an unlocked door 5 hours before the game started
Love that. Ideal tactic. Thanks for the tip!
Haha kudos to you man!!! Well done
Thanks Scotty! Soon to find out if it was just luck or something I’ve got a knack for.
Back in the early days of The Joe, my best bud snuck in a few times at an unguarded service door. He ran up the stairs and was in the arena. Of course it was the early 80s and the Wings stunk, but he did do it.
What a time to be alive! Your buddy’s my hero! Thanks for sharing:)
Amazing!😂
Thanks for that Marc:)
Didn’t sneak into the arena but still a crazy story… the quick version. Back in 2008 my Pittsburgh Steelers were playing the Buffalo Bills at the Skydome in Toronto. We sat in the 500 level and decided that we were too far from the action so high on a lot of mushrooms we went down to the 100 level and showed our 500 level tickets to the ticket checker. It could have been our high on mushrooms confidence or the fact that he had Down syndrome (don’t judge us, we really didn’t think it would work) but it worked. We got to the 100 level just in time to watch the Steelers score a touchdown.
Waf!!! This story is epic, and it doesn’t surprise me that you had the nerve to pull that off despite flying on shrooms.
You were already on legend status with me, but you’ve moved up a notch;)
@@MattWatsonComedy hahaha thank you very much
@@wafiknasralla9788 You’re a beaut!
😂😂
@@hunterpearson4428 Waf is an absolute gem.
Hahah awesome, Matt
Thanks buddy!
Smashing Pumpkins concert wasn't necessarily a sneak in, but we had nose bleeds. We ventured into the hallway and managed to grab an elevator highest floor of the arena right behind the stage, took it to the most lower level. When the elevator opened up we were backstage. We could see the Performers getting costumes on we were immediately approached by security and told them we were just on our way out and took the closest exit. The venu had amazing stage side seats that were not sold or taped off so we sat there. We ended up from the highest level to being so close we could touch the performers just left of the stage watching them walk by us when they got on and off. It was a side view but it was still so close and amazing to see from there.
Tell me the moment you grabbed those seats the Pumpkins started singing “Today is the greatest, day I've ever known!”
Thanks for sharing!
Hey Mattie, LOVE your story brother and felt compelled to tell you two "tennis variations" that you might like to hear! 1982, Mats Wilander had just won the French Open and was playing in the Canadian Open at York University. A buddy and I decided to head into TO from Hamilton, on his motorcycle, and when it started to rain, we were lucky enough to be able to get off the 401, head to Steeles and Keele and park the bike, coincidentally, at the Tournament Hotel, then called the Triumph Sheraton. We park in the lot, walk into the hotel with our racquets and duffle bags and YUP, cue the ruse about to begin!! We see Saabs, the Official Car of the Tournament (probably at Bjorns request) and a female driver at the door asks if we need a drive to the venue? A nanosecond later, my buddy and I are making the short drive to the courts and the rain made it obvious that we weren't going to be able to practice outdoors, so I immediately ask, "Where's the indoor practice facility?" as in those days, York U had a bubble but it was down by then for outdoor play. So the driver says, "I can take you to Mayfair West!" an indoor club I'd actually played a few Open events at. I say "Sure, that'd be great, thank you!" and sure enough, a short drive later, we're getting out of the Saab to hundreds of tennis fans standing in the rain waiting for players to arrive to practice. These poor kids are expecting ATP Tour players and my buddy and I are Club Players (I actually did get a D1 'walkon scholarship' to a great tennis school in Illinois so I can actually play!) But we decided just to thank our driver, set a time for her to come back, and we run through all the autograph seekers into the club, darting by the check-in table and to the far end of the club. Turns out, ALL those people were waiting for one person, and ONE PERSON Only! And that was Mats Wilander, 17 year-old Swedish phenom, who had JUST won the French Open and was playing in the Canadian Open right after the French! We actually watched him practice on the back courts with Nystrom and Jarryd, it was awesome!
Our ride came back in an hour, we went back to the hotel, had a bite to eat, told our driver that we were at another hotel, and that we'd see her tomorrow, which we did. If you thought this story was pretty funny, I'm happy to give "next day" detail in the Player's area at the venue, and my buddy's "near fatal" (it would have been for sure) decision to 'steal' McEnroe's Sergio Tachini Davis Cup jacket, the one with USA on the back, red white and blue. Thank God I talked him out of doing it as Mac would have hunted him down for sure!! McEnroe did have some pretty cool Nike hightop khaki shoes that I suggested he might take, but thankfully and this guy ended up becoming a cop haha lol we decided to be honest, enjoy the ruse, which we did, watched great tennis, and talk about this hilarious adventure to this day! I even had the audacity of making Lendl wait for the trainers table while I had the trainer check out my rotator!! Too funny! Anyway, sorry for the length but some stories just cant be condensed! Your's in Comedy and Tennis! Dave Millard
Dave what a bowl of yarn you’ve spun:)
Glad you didn’t double down on MCenroe’s belongings, I’ve heard that guy has a temper;) Love all the details of this heist buddy thanks for sharing!
Got booted from a Bon Jovi concert at the ACC but they never took my ticket, so i just walked down to the next gate, re-scanned the tickets and walked right back to my seat just as living on a prayer came on
Man that guy’s got pipes! Now you got me curious on what you did to get kicked out?
Only share if you’re comfortable:)

The Maple Leaf Lounge at Toronto Pearson Airport used to be really easy to just walk into. One time a friend of mine went in there and told me this guy asked him if he was on the ski team, said yes and that was that. Never skied in his life 😂
Love when they set you up with the question you just gotta say yes to. Thanks for sharing!
No way! Randomly stumbled across this video. I believe i went to grade school with your brother Andrew in Russell. Small world 😅 Go Leafs Go
That would be one of my two younger bros!
Nice to connect with ya!
I snuck into the ACC back in 2003 for the Metallica concert and used backstage passes that were for the Rexal Center Metallica show just a few weeks before. Buddy at the door got the pass flash from me and the granted wave was given. Best time ever.
Love that, very rock and roll thing to do.
Way to commit to the bit!
Thanks for sharing:)
That was a great concert, though waiting an hour for Metallica wasn’t worth it. I got a $150 ticket for my birthday and we were still in the nosebleeds
I think it was at Skydome though?
@@cpurday9681 That would be a steal of a price these days.
@@MattWatsonComedy Not really. Concerts aren’t that expensive.
@@cpurday9681 To get on the floor at Blink over in the Uk was £232 which translated to $371 CAD at the time.
Thankfully they cancelled, I got refunded and would see them a month later in Barcelona for around 200 Euros.
Still a lot for me, but completely worth it.
" I find the art of sneaking into a building fascinating." 😂😂😂
And clearly I’m not the only one;)
@@MattWatsonComedy😂 like they say, "Art is subjective."
@@Julie-ot7me True.
Me and my buddy snuck into a sold out horror movie convention in jersey a few years. Initially intended to buy tickets at the booth but obviously no luck there. Walked around a bit in the parking lot and noticed a side door smoking area that wasn’t really sectioned off for smokers and basically looked like anyone could walk in and out but the catch was that it was right next to the ticket scanners/security once inside. Luckily it was mid day and it was jam packed so it was easy to blend in, act like you own the place and waltz on through around the ticket staff. My advice to anyone sneaking into a convention is buy something quick from a vendor that has bags or bring plastic bags to put things in to blend in better.
Love this story:) If you can get a hold of a duty free bag at an airport, you can fill it with whatever and that’s also a way to bring an extra bag on a flight without having to pay for it. Thanks for sharing!
Snuck into the NBA on TNT All Star After party with 2 other friends when the NBA All Star game was in Toronto! Open bar, all you can eat. Hit to see Shaq and Chuck and the whole crew!!!! Wild night

I snuck into the Air Canada Centre (same arena new name) in September 2001 to a Tool concert. I was high on acid that I took way too early and forgot my ticket back home in Sarnia. I smoked a few joints with some roadies and told them the situation and they got me to carry shit in with them and vouched for me saying I was with them and I forgot my credentials at my hotel room when security tried to check me. Was the best show ever.
Roadies for the win! Your ability to be that convincing on a cocktail of drugs is incredibly impressive. If I’m in that situation, I’m staying home and watching tv.
Thanks for sharing the story!

My mom misplace 5 Van Halen tix back in 1985 so I went with my dad to customer service and our credit card bill and they just gave us free admission. Awhile later I fought the unused tix and with the help of a typewriter, whiteout, coloured pencils and a photocopier I made 5 other tix for The Scorpions.
Arts and Crafts for the win! Love that Scott! Thanks for checking out the heist.
I wish I will be successful in sneaking in tonight for A7X concert. If I will not see them tonight, I’m gonna die from the inside. They have given me so much. I wouldn’t sneak in if I wasn’t broke.
Best of luck my friend:) Hope the show is off the chain!
I'd like you to try American Airlines Center. It's easily the most difficult NHL arena to sneak into that I've seen
OMG a challenge! I’m actually considering adding more venues to the list. What makes you say it’s the most difficult?
@@MattWatsonComedy overzealous ticket scanners with zero sense of humor positioned at every possible entry point, with no secret staff entrances/exits that I've been able to locate
I'm certainly not claiming to be a 'pro' at this so that sounds incredibly intimidating. However I'm also a big fan of a challenge. I've made a note, and will hopefully find myself in Dallas someday to take a swing.
Thanks for the scouting report:) @@IMAGE_NT_HEADERS
That's because it's texas, and everybody has a couple of guns on them.
@@joeq.public281 never have I ever seen someone get caught with a firearm entering the arena

Thanks for tips!
During the Tragically hips final tour in London, a friend of mine snuck in through the smoking area doors.... There was such a chaotic herd of people on the way out that they simply just said that the lady who was supposed to stamp their hands while they were exiting for their cigarette neglected to do so and they got waved right on in
Love that! Especially from a fellow Watson!
Thanks for sharing Scott!
Went to 2 games in edmonton in 2005, could have easily snuck in there, after we were in at first we would travel beack and forth to smoke cigarettes and doobies and when we came back in we never got a check from anyone
Man there’s no way I could handle sneaking in stoned, I’d be way too paranoid.
Good to know though: if you don’t mind missing the start security gets real lax.
Thanks for sharing Michael!
This is awesome, I buy my tickets but try to sneak past security for fun.
A get out of jail free card! I’m considering doing that for future sneak videos on the off chance I’m caught, but my fugal side is really not liking that. Will have to see.
Thanks for the suggestion!
Snuck in a few times, and as mentioned, busy equals confusion. In the Galleria, was a Burger King that when no events, was open to public. I would go there just before they closed doors to public non ticket holders, and open sliding doors inside for ticket holders. I'd order something crazy, they tell me I had to leave to Galleria, and I said sure, but by time order was ready, tons of ticket holders were inside Burger King, and I'd just walk in ACC and go to standing room.
Sly moves bud! Now you got me thinking...
I wonder if those kinda shenanigans could work in the Leafs store at Scotiabank Arena. Before the gates open, the store is accessible to the public waiting to get in. When the gates open, they switch the entrance to inside the arena.
@@MattWatsonComedy I thought of that as well, but haven't tried it yet.
@@robgingras4303 This is the best comment section! Thanks for checking out the video:)
I used to sneak into the old tigers stadium in Detroit to watch the tigers. Well we kind of sneaked in. Gate 7 give the guy a couple of bucks and you were in.

Thanks for sharing John:)
I snuck into a Jamiroquai concert in South Africa once. I swear to god it was Jedi Mind Tricks. The smokers section was only separated from the rest of the outside by some of those temporary red velvety separator things. There were security guards keeping an eye on that. I went and stood close to them but just far way enough that security guard didn't make me leave where I was standing. One of the gate people looked at me, and I acted like I was on the inside but had been out for a smoke, and just happened to be beyond the gate thing. I remember seeing them surveying me and that's where I think the Jedi Mind Trick game in. it was the way in which I looked at them, like, "I'm already inside", and then when I walked in I strode with such a confidence as in "you don't even need to check my ticket, I just came from the smoking area", that they simply let me through without checking my ticket.
It was surreal!
I would have paid for a ticket, incidentally, but they were sold out.
Greaet concert, too. Johannesburgh, 2002.
What an epic tale Shiraz and in South Africa too! Sounds like the force is strong with you.
Thanks for sharing!
thank you! @@MattWatsonComedy

Back in the late 90's I was able to sneak into a couple boxing matches at the MGM grand arena in Vegas. They had a smoking section that opened up to the outside of the arena and if you hung outside the door smoking you could easily walk back inside with everyone else.
I’ve used that smoke sneak at a dingy club back in the day, but pulling it off at the MGM grande is certainly more prestigious. There was never an Ocean’s Eleven movie with George Clooney sneaking into Stages in Kingston Ontario;)
Thanks for watching and sharing your tip!
damn lowkey impressive
Thanks Keir, don’t know if my nerves could handle it anymore. Glad you liked the vid:)
i sneaked into the paddock in indianapolis for the 2011 motogp
With moves like that they should have put you in a cart Luigi! How'd you pull off the sneak?
Even if you got caught, bail would've still been cheaper than ticket prices at Scotiabank lol.
Funniest comment I’ve gotten. Well done!

Cheap Orange construction vest...and used a back door when trucks were unloading for a Muse concert. Once inside just stood on main floor.
Love that. I gotta get me one of those!
Thanks for the tip!
"Sneak IN? no I googled sneak OUT"
I think any of the exits would work just fine for that.
But can you sneak into the Ripley believe it or not building?
Nah did the leafs vs Philly game Thursday night with actual footage. Will be releasing by the end of the month:)
Idk how you did a lap inside the arena first to scout it out but gj
I may have misspoke, I did a lap on the outside hoping for easy access before realizing I was gonna have to just commit to one and give it a go. Thanks for watching:)
I had tickets to WWE Smackdown in Vancouver. When I got in, the security was so ridiculously strict. They asked me to check the bulge in my pocket which was a plastic bag to put my jacket in. My wallet, keys, belt.... Made me so incredibly upset to the point where I complained.
Ironically, there is a closed restaurant behind my seats. There were like 10 people sitting there lol. They eventually got booted but wtf
Anyways, I challenge you to get into any event at Rogers... by entering through the 300 level.
You’re talking Vancouver’s Rogers I already did that! If you’re talking Edmonton, tune in next week! Thanks for sharing bud!
@matthew, I'm just thinking this may be some of Papa's influence. Remember when he would movie hop?

I can't tell if you really snuck in because there is no video of it but I imagine that if a person sneaks in, and the event is sold out, the venue isn't losing money, they are gaining money if the person spends any money while in the venue. And I assume once in, it can't be proven that you snuck in because you can just say that you lost your ticket...
You’re correct. There’s no actual footage of the sneak in I’m describing in the video as the b roll was all shot at a game I had a ticket for. I also haven’t been pulled by security once in a venue but assuming you’re wearing the home team jersey and not a sleeveless Space Jam Murray jersey, they’d have a heck of a time picking you out from the crowd.
Thanks for the comment!

@MattWatsonComedy may be a little bit of both. You gave me some ideas to try now!
@@user-sk9sp7pe4y love that:)
So, any calls yet from the stadiums or the law enforcements? Any " penalties" for you? ;)
Quite the opposite actually. Everyone’s been supportive. Although most know I march to the beat of my own drum;)
My son's mom and I got 3 people in to see Base is Bass, Busta Rhymes, Tribe Called Quest, Fugees, Cypress Hill at Canada's wonderland. Me and the kid's mom went in first.
We preyed on the location of the ticket takers and the distance between them. I made sure we went to the ticket place to the far right. I asked the woman, "we want to go in and hit the washroom, but her friend is outside and is stuck in line to get into the park." This was a lie. He was watching us go in from about 200 feet away. I made sure the woman recognized me and I asked her to make sure she remembers me.
We sat for 30 minutes prior to the show while her friend waited outside. Just before the first band was to go on, we could see the sound and lighting engineers take their places. This was go time. I got up and went to the woman that I had asked, and made sure she remembered me. Upon grabbing the friend out of view of the ticket takers, I gave him the stub for the seat that my GF was sitting at, and then went back to the entrance. There was still a huge crowd and we intentionally went to the ticket booth as far away from the woman that I spoke with. When we got to the ticket taker, they said there was no in and outs. I pointed to the woman that we spoke with, and motioned to her with a little wave. She gave the thumbs up to the man in front of us thinking that it was all good and my friend had a ticket.
I counted on them not talking to each other in that busy moment. Things are different now, and this might not work as hard copy tickets are a thing of the past.
This is epic! Both the heist and the lineup you were getting to see! Something incredibly satisfying in the visual of that security guard just waving you on through to the other. Especially as that was the last piece of the puzzle to come to be put in place.
You’re a mastermind!
Thanks for sharing:)
i wonder how hard it would be to sneak into a venue in california seeing stores giving away all these free phones and nike shoes or whatever you want
I'll consider adding it my list Frank! Is there a particular venue you're referring to?
You should have logged into ticket master and checked which seats are still available then sat in one
That’s an astute observation Johnny!
Thanks for the tip:)
Homie snuck to the seats I paid $80 for to see the Raptors.😂😂😂😂😂😂
Seats 😂
Oldest trick in the books I’ve been doing this for years in Ottawa. Keep an old phone in your pocket thats dead.. buys time if your ever asked for ur ticket.
So funny you mentioned this, I was actually considering bringing a phone with a smashed screen that I could stumble near the ticket scanner and say “crap, that was my ticket.”
Great minds think alike!

W LEAFS❤
Let’s go!!!
Always been a fan of the leafs@@MattWatsonComedy
@@TheBloxBaconGamesVROFFICIAL Me too!
Dad wouldn’t have it any other way, and that suits me just fine.
Can u try little caecers arena?
I thought I was done with this part of my life, but now seeing the love this video is getting I’m certainly considering getting back into it.
Thanks for the suggestion!
Harder to do with seats and workers standing by seats
@@sickgamerrage1532 If I can just get in the building, I’ll happily watch from the rafters.
I work at sbc lmao this is so funny…Nobody who works there cares or would ever assume someone is doing some shit like this. The security 95% of the time is 3rd party, or some poor lad making $18 an hour to deal with hammered people. We ain’t the FBI
Love that Alex! Thanks for the inside scoop. Will be respectful from here on out and blurt security’s faces so no one gets in trouble.
Appreciate your words man:)
And thus, after Scotiabank staff see this video, so ends getting in without a ticket
Don’t give up so easily! There’s always a way in;)
Are you gonna sneak into a devil game? 😂
Nico at this point, who knows what’s possible;) Thanks for checking out this one!
I could t imagine paying to go see that team play, or even sneaking in for free 😂
Is there a team you would pay to, or even sneak in to see?
I’m just messing with you bro, as a Sens fan I have to! Love your videos and your comedy bits man keep it up!
@@nickrawlins8570 So hard to convey tone over these messages. That means a whole heap Nick! Thanks for saying that:)
In canada theft over 5 thousand is a indictable offense with a max sentence of 10 years. With the price of that ticket and a few scammed beers with a bag of popcorn and they would throw away the key buddy
I get your ‘expensive leaf ticket’ humour, but we can both agree that even with their extortionate prices you’re inflating the numbers quite a bit. Now scamming beers and popcorn is a whole other level and you’ve got my attention. Hypothetical how would one pull that off buddy?
@@MattWatsonComedy yeah just a joke and I think you could probably swing a 🍿 trick
@@alterego7739 That popcorn would turn these sticky fingers into greasy ones real quick!
walk in backwards they won't know if you're comin or go'in
😂 Love that. May give er a go;)
I thought this read "How to sneak OUT of a Leafs game"
Easily unless you add the word ‘unscathed.’
You know if i was security guard and i saw you trying to sneak in a maple leafs hockey game as long you wear the maple leafs jersey i don't give a crap
Get that resume together and let me know which door you’re guarding bud!
Thanks for checking out the video:)
I've once snuck into prison. It was pretty easy, I have to admit. Just went into a Band with a skimask and my breadknife.
But were you able to sneak back out?
so without the group you would be screwed ?
Now how on earth would I know that?
Would need a parallel universe to answer that. All I can say is that for whatever reason, that night, I had a blind arrogant confidence that was getting into that game.
Thanks for watching.
A ladder. Hold a ladder, you can get in anywhere
I gotta get me a ladder!
The best thing to do during a leaf game is to chant.... sixty seven (5 claps👏) sixty seven (5 claps👏) and repeat .... 😅😅😅😅
😂It’s been sooooo long!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣you win the comment section 🏆
@@74rockon I suppose I’ll grant you the authority to make that call. But only because you seem super excited about it.
Last time I went to a raptors game I got in without them scanning my 400$ ticket ..
Ok I'll bite, how'd you pull that off Adam? If it was digital and you had friends going, you could have sent them the ticket and tried to scalp it outside!
I hope MLSE sees this video so they can realise that if people are willing to do this kind of thing, maybe the the tickets are too expensive
Oh I’ve been told they’ve seen it, however I doubt it’ll help with ticket prices.
May create a few more security jobs;)
@@MattWatsonComedy I also doubt it will help but I can still dream
@@roderickbawcutt You and me both Roderick!
The moment fans stop showing up, the moment the owners get serious about building a winning team.
They’re certainly fun to watch in the regular season, but this fan base deserves more.
i know every door and way to get in there i have been to 24 games free its all about timeing
You’re a friggin legend! Thanks for checking out my first attempt:) If you got any other tips I would love to hear them.
Weird, if I found myself at a leafs game I’d try to sneak OUT
Well that would be so much easier!
Comedic Criminal level Up
Finally I’ve arrived at level 2.
@@MattWatsonComedy 🤣
That's what you call Lucky
I don’t disagree, however worth noting that “Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity.” Thanks for watching!
I would say skill.
@@Julie-ot7me That comment didn’t age well. Now we can say skill;)
When? The game is over😂😂😂😂...
Not sure what you’re referring to which sucks because I wrote the dang thing and wish I was in on the joke! Please elaborate:)
I wouldn’t spend a damn dime on Leaf tickets to watch the Dallas Cowboys of the NHL.
I could buy groceries for a whole month for the top ticket price. It’s sickening how much tickets cost but it’s your money…
That’s why I snuck in:)
How to sneak into a Matt Watson show?
😂 Reach out and ask for a ticket;)
New arrack
Gonna need a clarification on this on…
