    We'll see tomorrow. I'll call it, just like I did in '16. Wrigley GA winners with 2nd priority.

    The only question is if I'll be seeing derbydave at ROCKS again after one of the Wrigley shows? It was a pleasure meeting you in 2016.

    You're right! I am a little disappointed though... They had this sinfully good Bourbon Street Burger (burger with shrimp, andouille sausage, remoulade sauce, and possibly peppers) that has disappeared from their menu. I'm broken hearted... "Fight to get it back again!"

    Good luck with your picks!

  • just doing fenway 1 as first priority and fenway 2 as 2nd.  I know there are no sure things but it looks pretty safe?

    I think we’re safe w/ Fenway 2 still at 99%.

    Fenway 1 just dropped below 80% w/ a little over 5 hours to go. I think that will end up between 70-75%. Some people will miss out for sure, but the odds are still in our favor. 

    Good luck!

    Fenway 2 seems like a lock, but there's definitely a chance you'll miss Fenway 1.  Someone has to.  I only put in for Fenway 1 so my fingers are crossed.

    Same here, was initially doing Wrigley 1 reserved but changed it to GA then Res
  • Getting ready to board a plane so I cannot follow anymore until after the drawing. I changed last minute to Wrigley 1 reserved, Night 2 GA 2nd, Night 2 Reserved 3rd.  I have spent too much time looking at the odds the last two days.  This way I feel really good about attending both nights.  Cheers and Good Luck all!

    I was hoping for the same, but with all the people in the Northeast who don't plan to get on a plane, Fenway 1 is their best shot at seeing PJ without having to take time out from work.

    At the risk of being a downer, it's probably safe to say some people who put it as the #1 priority are going to be shut out.

    I absolutely agree.  A show within driving distance of many east coast cities on a holiday weekend, I’m sure a lot of people are like me and can only manage to do that date.  My fear is missing out and also not getting a Verified Fan code.

    Thoughts on 

    Seattle 2 GA
    Seattle 1 GA
    Seattle 2 Res
    Seattle 1 Res


    Or should I give up the dream of getting 2 Seattle GA pulls?

    TBH, I'm surprised the odds are still as high as they are, they must have secured a $hit ton of tickets.

    Good luck man, I hope you score... the odds are in your favor!!

  • I just got season ticket holder presale info from the red sox- limit 4 tix.  Cant remember if it was 2 or 4 ticket limit in 2016.
  • MickeyMouseMickeyMouse Posts: 1,053
    I’m curious what their contracts state for unused 10C tickets.  For instance, if Fenway 2 holds at 99%, it’s reasonable to assume that not only will everyone who put in for it get tickets, but that they would have some left over.  Would those be offered to Fenway 1 losers in a new lotto, do they go into the Verified Fan sale, etc.  I’m sure the venue/promoter contracts have that sorted out but I’m just curious.

    I would assume any unused tickets become available for regular sale.   If people going for fenway 2 wanted fenway 1, wouldn't they add it is a preference to the current lotto?
  • For Europe there was a second sale of 10c tickets to those who missed out on first drawings

    That wouldn't be a bad idea if there's some left over.

    I'm really surprised, as well.  I guess I'm not surprised by Missoula, but I figured the rest of the shows would get gobbled up pretty well.  It shows how many are only planning the weekend show in the big cities.

    Going for Wrigley, Wrigley, Missoula.  I feel pretty good.

    I imagine, what with the new partnership with Ticketmaster that all unused 10c tickets get rolled into the general on sale.

    I have no insider info, that's just my best guess.

    Would appreciate feedback on my choices. MT is my highest priority but would like to catch both Safeco shows as well. Have a good member ('96) but prefer GA for one Safeco show. When lottery opened I chose the following:
    1. MT GA
    2. MT RES
    3. SEA I GA
    4. SEA II GA
    5. SEA I RES
    6. SEA II RES
    Thinking of reconfiguring to the following: 
    1. MT GA 84%
    2. SEA II GA 36 
    3. SEA I GA 44
    4. MT RES 99
    5. SEA II RES 85 
    6. SEA I RES 99
    Any advice would be much appreciated!

    Would appreciate feedback on my choices. MT is my highest priority but would like to catch both Safeco shows as well. Have a good member ('96) but prefer GA for one Safeco show. When lottery opened I chose the following:
    1. MT GA
    2. MT RES
    3. SEA I GA
    4. SEA II GA
    5. SEA I RES
    6. SEA II RES
    Thinking of reconfiguring to the following: 
    1. MT GA 84%
    2. SEA II GA 36 
    3. SEA I GA 44
    4. MT RES 99
    5. SEA II RES 85 
    6. SEA I RES 99
    Any advice would be much appreciated!


    I would try and secure 2 out of 3 GA's

    1. Seattle 1 GA
    2. MT GA
    3. Sea 2 Res
    4. Sea 1 Res
    5. MT res
