You can also buy General Admission through nyra. Go to nyra.com or belmontstakes.com

Here's a tip, but it takes some chutzpah:
Buy a ticket that lets you sit in the little eating area (I can't remember whether it's the clubhouse or grandstand side). These are more expensive than general admission, but at least you get a table and a fancier ticket.
Then just before the running of the Belmont Stakes walk to the grandstand or clubhouse with your ticket and flash it to the usher and act like your seats are in the grandstand or clubhouse seating area.
The ushers are likely watching the race like everyone else. Everyone who has a seat will be standing to watch the race. Start walking up the steps like you're going to your seat. Then just stand on the steps like you're watching the race. There will be so many people standing and watching that no will notice you.
It worked for us last time we went.
