The scrum for Jay-Z tickets at the Barclays Center is over.
Seats for each of Hova’s eight shows at the brand new arena from September to October are sold out - including the coveted $29 tickets - according to the Barclays Center website.
Each concert date on the site is listed as sold out and only a link to a ticket resale website is left for fans.
“I’m excited. It’s going to be my first Jay-Z concert,” said MTA worker Bruce Washington from Bushwick, who got seats for the Oct. 6 show.
Washington started calling when tickets were available at 10 a.m. on Friday and was lucky enough to get two pairs of the cheap seats.
“I was surprised. I thought it would be sold out in a matter of minutes but I got lucky,” said Washington.
Bedford-Stuyvesant resident Rashad Phillips, 23, said he tried online for an hour but came away empty-handed.
“I kept trying and trying and I got nothing,” said Phillips. “It’s a horrible feeling.”
Naquon Hinton, 29, from Canarsie tried calling for an hour and a half before he gave up and bought a pair for $550 on StubHub.
“I’m just happy I’m going,” said Hinton. “It’s overpriced but it’s okay.”
