    Day 2 and it's really looking like they have more tix than usual (all reserved odds still at 99%)
    If Fenway holds @ 99% everyone gets in and that is great but where are they going to stick me? Also if it drops how am I going to juggle that with Wrigley. Come on Monday!
    can you please explain to me this odds thing?
    Lol. One thing I just thought of though why does 10 club charge top prices for balcony seats and grandstand seats when the public sale has tiered pricing or am I remembering that wrong?

    If seat assignment happens closer to the show, would be hard to manage different pricing tiers. Especially with 4 lottery rows.

    Charging 10 club members top prices for shitty seats is not right either though imo. Hard to work around unless they did what they did in 2013 for Wrigley but still hard to sit by a public sale fan that payed a lot less.

    Cheapest Safeco ticket is $92 before fees. What is 10C charging? Wrigley/Fenway not posted yet.

     Seattle is 259$ all in for a pair. Looks like a 20$ difference per ticket roughly. Not the end of the world and worth it for me since you are pretty much guaranteed a seat. Still wish it was tiered somehow after the fact.

    Yeah, will have to see the all-in price to truly compare. With only 2 levels it's also possible none of the 10C seats are in $92 sections.

    Opening up multiple categories for reserved seats (lower or upper, for ex) especially for Fenway with it's one option and no ga, would have addressed this


    Each category could have been set at a different price

    Would have made the strategy alot more interesting and have the seat fairer priced and closer to it's true value

    ok I'm going to ask two stupid questions.

    When and how do they get our smart phone # to send tickets if we win? I didn't see anywhere when i put my choices in.

    Also if I win 10C tickets can I still get extra tickets to the same show via Ticketmaster?

    They'll give us those details if we win the tix, and yes, you can still get TM tix if you have 10C tix.

    Agreed. It's the same exciting feeling that came with opening the envelope just two months early.

    Yep! That’s a serious plus.  Also, we get to check out the forum in early July when people shit themselves over their seat locations!

    I like that, and as I have said a lot.... I like the 'you buy it, you better use the ticket(s)' policy....

    But itll kind of suck if I get the back of the floor somewhere and cant within the rules find a seated area.  Seat.  Im 5'5", so back of the floor is basically a show-ruiner.  At least picking the tickets up day of the show, its a 'thems the breaks' kind of thing.  Now, Ill have to fester for months.

    Immediately. Sometimes people see the charge on their card before they get the confirmation email.
