Anyone know how one would get their hands on a spectator pass? I'll be damned if I don't attend a major half an hour away from me, but I can't find any information on where to get one!

I really want to attend but the only day I can is Sunday, but I hear the spectator passes are 30$! Does anyone know how to get in for cheaper?
