picking up tickets- city or venue?

[The EELiminator]

i have two tickets to pick up and im thinking of going into ticketek in the city on saturday to pick them up instead of at the stadium has anyone been to the stadium box office before? its ok if theres lots of ticket agents but i definitely dont want to be hanging around in a queue for two hours in the hot sun waiting for tickets im getting the supporter bus so free public transport isnt an issue
