All circuits are busy. Always. Have never once actually gotten through :(
Really frustrated at this point - didn't get that second email from Sirius for another chance even though I live in NJ and did get the email when U2 played the Apollo.
The odds of winning the second chance drawing are pretty much the same as winning the lotto. I wouldn't sweat it.
Could have a decent shot at the second chance. Email mentions a "limited number of complimentary tickets", so it's not the grand prize drawing. There could even be more chances here than opportunities to call in
I must not have gotten that one either then. Mine just refers to entering to be the grand prize winner.
I got the email, and I live in south Florida. So it’s not a geographical thing. Also, I got the Ten question wrong on the first drawing.
Oh - I found the email in my gmail “Promotions” folder, not in my Primary inbox. According to the fine print, it seems that only “select listeners” received the email and are thus eligible. No clue how they selected.

I noticed that the U2 Apollo email I got was sent to 3.3 million subscribers. I understand that this PJ email is is being sent to nearly 7 million subscribers. An email blast that large takes time. It also makes the odds of winning less than minuscule.
Do people think they are going to win tickets in the general contest? I know you can't win if you don't enter but these odds are not worth to even waste 20 minutes trying to figure it out and find where the email is.

They wouldn’t be advertising that they’re giving them away if people couldn’t win them. I’m not a gambler by any means, but you have literally nothing to lose and just as much chance as anyone else who enters.
But you’re right, you shouldn’t bother. Gives the rest of us a .0000000001% higher chance of winning.
Does anyone the year they officially started putting the bootlegs out 2000, 1998, 2003, 2004?
I’m like 99% sure it’s 2000. So what does this 2nd chance email that’s floating around say? And did you get the question right the first time?
Ok I got the second chance email late tonight. It does state on this one that winners will be randomly selected from those who get the question right. Who knows how many people will get the email or how many they will select but I’ll take all the chances I can get!
So I have the app, logged in, and am always listening to PJ radio. Why does my entry not say it’s been received and all I keep seeing is the countdown of how much time I have and the steps? Did anyone receive a confirmation?
Good morning! Another day, another chance to win. Here's a briefing for today (Thursday).

No, and I went back and entered again and got the same result - whereas with the earlier contest if you tried to enter twice you’d get an error message.
Good luck everybody!! I hope my job doesn't look at how I've been using my work phone over the last month. We might need to have a "talk" haha.

Well I ate shit pretty hard yesterday and now my phone is buried in the snow somewhere at the bottom of the Horseshoe Bowl at Breckenridge. I still have my work phone, but it’s an iPhone 6 that’s cracked to hell. If I see here that DTE is playing some time this morning before we head out for the day, I’ll give it a shot - but I feel like Ned Nederlander using a rusty, heavy gun for the big shootout.
