    I'm pretty sure I remember a post about someone who won TWICE in the 2009 tour.

    not sure if this is sarcasm ... haha ... but, i do feel lucky to have seen them up very close pretty much every show ... so, if the first 10 rows would make someone's day/week/year/whatever ... more than happy to swap ...

    I know someone who got it for 2 straight shows they went to. They weren't back to back but their last 2 shows were lottery wins. Unreal. Everyone should get a chance before being eligible to get it again, IMO.

    Hi On2legs,


    Yes...I witnessed in person...Guy won the lottery front row seats two shows in a row.. Pretty much same general area for both shows....But, it is random lottery right?... :lol:

    I think and this imo...The ten club hand picks some of the members to be front row etc....

    I am not jealous..I have a pretty good fan club number and usually have great seats..But, the lottery is set up to help out fan club members who have not so great fan club numbers...Give them a chance to be up close and let them experience it..Oh well what can you do about it...Nothing..

    Jeremy

    It's already happened to pjtaper's friend on consecutive nights like 2 weeks ago. One time was an upgrade with the lottery from his normal TC seats. The second night he won tickets behind his normal seats.
    ADD 5,200 to the post count you see, thank you. :)

    Does buying Vic Tickets during the one second they were on sale count as winning the lottery? :D

    That's a great line. Someone should put that line in a song.

    So check it out- I showed up for my first Pearl Jam concert ever (May 17th in Boston), only to find out I was in row 10. It was an incredible show, and worth every penny.

    I was so thankful at winning the chosen Row 10 that I also bought a Powerball ticket today :)
