And that some fulfillment of requests will be done through the Verified Fan process. I don't think anyone could have realistically expected that all GA requests would be filled.

There are still people who think seniority determines if you secure tickets. Believe me, there are people here who think 10club has enough tickets to fulfill most if not all requests, regardless of where they entered.  I mean, have you seen some of the questions being tossed around here?

Seniority has never been a factor in securing tickets, only in seat location.

The odds are completely opposite to the European tour...all the GA were near enough guaranteed and the seating was much more unlikely

I always assumed it meant that pretty much everyone would be able to get a ticket to a show.  GA is always the most finite section, so I thought it was implied that it's limited, but there's enough reserved tickets that no one will miss out completely.

GA is the full floor in Europe so there is way more availability. Most of us like to stand so 10c only secures a limited number of seats. Hence the odds are opposite to USA.

Anyone that thought they would fill the GA with as many applicants as they could get needs to give there head a shake. GA is the size it is going to be. Reserved is where they said they were going to be able to add more seats further back then ever before.

The GA odds were always going to be lower. If you want to go, you can get reserved tickets but that wont satisfy a lot on this board

GA or nada.

I go to hear music not see it, so as long as I have a good spot to listen from I am happy.  To be sure even to me those spots are limited.  My hope is I win GA for Wrigley, but I assume that if I don't win GA, odds are my number is putting me in the front of the B section on the field which is good.

ISO WRIGLEY GA for both shows

A concert for me is the combination of hearing and seeing. 

If I just want to hear it I will buy the bootleg.

Just saw someone on Facebook who is wondering how they will get tickets when the numbers are at 30%.  Wonders because it’s now the 10club rule they will accommodate most if not all requests.  It’s happening.....

It doesn't say they will accommodate most GA requests.  GA is only so big.  Choose reserved and you will be in the building.
