    I'm 0 for something like... 25-30?

    I dont believe anyone under a certain # (I'm thinking 100K) has any chance of winning. I sitll have yet to meet someone who has ever won with a number under 100K. I'm at 88xxx so I'm right at the border. Never been in the first two rows and I dont think I ever will.

    Prove me wrong, TC... prove me wrong. ;)

    The lottery only started in 2008 I believe

    My number is 72XXX and I hit it in St Louis for front row center just between Ed and Mike (see avatar)

    I'm calling BS on the 41, you would have had to have gone to almost every show since they started the lottery.

    I believe the OP was under the impression that the lottery has been in place for every show ever played.

    Yeah, I guess I didn't think it all the way through...the point was I had been to a hell of alot of shows and not hit the lottery...

    But all that has changed...Section 2, Row 9 for MSG2 :D

    It's pretty ironic that I posted that earlier that day.

    I am 0-11 in the post lottery era.


    However, for the 2 EV solo shows, I scored 10c tix within the 1st 5 rows.
