    Going for Wrigley 2.  Just booked a room at Hotel Versey - Days Inn Chicago 8/19-8/21 with free cancellation.  I've never gone for GA in the lottery yet so I'm due to try it for this show.

    7 months to save for this show.  Cant wait!

  • Show Priority
    You are required to select each show in priority status when entering the drawing. Sorry, there can only be one #1 show no matter how many shows you may want to go to equally. During the drawing, we will randomly draw members who have made that show their #1 priority. If any tickets remain, the system will randomly draw names of members who have chosen that show as their #2 priority and so on until every ticket for a given show has been sold.

    So if I'm reading this right, it is entirely possible that someone with a show listed as a 2 priority can get a ticket over someone with that show listed as a 1 priority....that stinks.  
  • Sorry for my ignorance, but I am a bit confused!  So we need to register with Ticketmaster Verified Fan to see if we can enter our names into the lottery?  Ticketmaster Verified Fan doesn't let you know until Feb 14th if you can participate in the lottery that happens on Feb 12th?  Something isn't adding up... what am I missing?

    No, they draw everyone that has a show # 1 first. If there are leftover tickets, they move on to people that have it #2, and so on.

    I hate complaining but on first look I am not a fan of the changes for mobile tickets and having at least one ticket locked to the winner. As someone with a high number I loved the option to try and win tickets in the Lotto and then also try and get better tickets in the general sale. On top of that it looks like I will be even further back for these shows now that there are more tickets to go around. I am happy about this news for everyone else but now I think I can definitely get better seats in the general sale and should not even bother with the Lotto. 

    On top of that I do not own a phone. My wife has one though. If I win tickets will I be able to use her phone as mine even though it will be linked to her tickets as well. There is plenty of time to get the details before the draw and look forward to the answers.

    No read it again. They only go to priority 2 when all of priority 1 entrants have won tickets.

    The only show I could make is Missoula since it's only a handful of hours above me so i'm really hoping for tickets. The last time they came through MT is was a disappointing day trying to get tickets. Hope everyone gets tickets! I'm wicked excited about these shows!
    We'll road trip up together...put together a JH caravan!

    Who will be the first to frame their smart phone access code with a poster?  I dare you.


    I'll probably just print out a screenshot of my ticket and use that in the frame job...
    Some of the mobile tickets I've got are pretty sweet looking!!

    Yeah, they could have just done the Ticketmaster paperless where you scan your credit  card.  And they have to hope the scanners all work now. U2 learned this the hard way last year when their was a glitch.
