So right now if you picked Best Available and were selected, you're not sure which one you'll be getting until the week of January 27, correct?
You got it
Lookin' forward to it whether on the floor or in a seat!

Do any Ottawa people (Ottawanians? Ottawatarians?) know if/when they are going to build a downtown arena for the Senators, and future pearl jam shows?
No. No one knows. There has been a lot of talk, and at one point it looked like there might be something in 3 - 5 years. But the owner of the hockey team is a nutbar and he sued the people who would be managing the entire site and then they counter-sued him and that project died. So city hall here is basically starting over. Without a major tenant like an NHL team, the chances of a 20,000 seat facility seem remote.
If people aren't getting 2nd choice for a GA that is 75%.... does that also mean anyone who put in MSG or Baltimore Best available as a 2nd choice is unlikely to get it since that was down as low as it was?
I think there maybe a difference there since the US picks have 12 shows to compete with. Canada only had 4. If you look at 2016 when Quebec City had a bunch of other shows to compete with it had a 44% GA. Lots of people won that as a second round pick hence the reason I thought 77% was safe. That and the BA button made things much tougher to go only GA.
Just me, or did the first/earliest few to post here with OTT confirmations had GA only. Think the earlier emails for those that had BA suggest they got GA? Or everyone think email timing not related?
I had Ott 2p as BA but was holding hope would end up with GA, but didn't get confirmation until 19:20 est.

Ah thats a shame. It sucks when your owner is a prick. Hard to support the team and keep sending him your money. I hope they get it done, though. Sens fans deserve it.
not a thing as of yet....friend just confirmed GA in the Hammer and BA in OTT
Any new realizations... would have to wait... Til he had more time,... more time... Time to dream,... to himself... he waves goodbye, To himself... I'll see you on the other side...
In for Hamilton. How do I tell if I got GA or reserved? Am I missing something
Won’t know until the week of the 27th apparently

More than likely GA as a first pick. Especially with an email so soon in the draw. Dont want to get your hopes up though as there is still a chance at reserved of course.
