Did anyone line up at the box office today for the show? What time did you get there? How many people were there? What time does the box office release tickets? Any help would be much appreciated!

Thank you

    It was 50 plus deep at 1:30 today. Have no idea how many will succeed. Be interested if someone there now can see if they started selling any yet. It's a crapshoot but first 10 or 20 usually get great seats

    - Got there at 10am.
    - Around 2pm, there was, in my point of view, maybe 150 persons waiting.
    - Box office released the tickets around 2:30pm, 40 tickets at first, then aournd 20 tickets and another shot of 6 tickets.

    After that, no idea.

    So did u score? What number in line were unapproved getting there at 10? Mostly fans or scalers waiting?

    I did and so the person behind me.. I would not be surprised if we were the last ones.

    The person behind me got there few minutes after me.

    Maybe if you tell us what you want to know, we could be more specific !

    Damn nice job man. What kind of seats did you get / did you pay just 85 or more for the fees and stuff
  • ldent42ldent42 Posts: 7,859
    Just out of curiosity, did they sell only singles or could one person buy a pair?

    Not really, pretty bad seat, although we had to take a single seat.

    85$

    Just out of curiosity, did they sell only singles or could one person buy a pair?
    No idea. All those people before our group had to buy pairs. For us, it was singles. I guess it goes with the house availability.

    is there a limit of tickets one person can buy. Like one per person or could you but up to two
    For me, it was a single ticket.. Since I was alone it is ok.. Before us it was only pairs.. So if you are by yourself, maybe start to find someone else on the line which is alone.. just in case.

    I'm still in line... Is there any point?
    No idea. Still alot of people? is it moving ?

    Dunno if it means anything, but I've been checking the app all day (I've got a friend waiting in that line so I'm just trying to be nice) and the "standard ticket" disappeared long ago, now it's only the "obstructed view" and ada seats. Haven't been able to actually pull any tickets.

    Was the line made up of scum bag scalpers or mostly fans

    Are they doing the same thing tomorrow morning for Night 2?
  • lfitzpatrick9lfitzpatrick9 Posts: 385
    I'd assume so. I think MSG / all venues do this

    Nothing online for me either, been watching all day. Looks like they gave them to the people waiting at the venue, which makes sense.

    Standing waiting for doors to open right by box office window where they are selling tickets.
    They bringing four people or so up from the line at a time.
    People that just got tickets got great seats in section 118 and that was five minutes ago.
    Don't think everyone in line will get tix but some more will.
    Looked pretty even with fans. But there were couple decent size groups of scalpels in the line.

    Was there form 12-5. Bailed at 5. I was 40 or so people deep, just behind the second barrier. Slight movement at 2pm. Thereafter, nothing. Was brutal. Not worth it.
  • BK187852BK187852 Posts: 16
    The first barrier is / was effectively empty now. And only 2nd barrier left. All in first got tickets or left.
