    That's quite the difference in the West eh? In the East you'd be pretty hard pressed to get GA as a 2nd pick :)

    Tips and tricks:

    Get "ticket buddies" to team up with. Make your picks against theirs so that you have different priorities. If you choose Jacksonville GA, Tampa Reserved, Jacksonville Reserved, Jacksonville Pit, then your ticket buddy should choose Tampa Reserved, Jacksonville Pit, Jacksonville GA, Tampa Pit. Use your extras to barter for ones that you don't already have.

    That's real... cursed by living in NY though haven't had luck when wanting to travel either.

    I don't know if it helps or not, but choosing GA #1, and Reservered #2 in a megatropolis doesn't give you the best odds. The # of GA tickets is much less, and the demand for a show like NY means the reserved tickets also won't make it past the first round. I've thought about this when it comes to Seattle (the show I didn't get tickets for). The demand is so insanely high, that whatever you choose as #2 is pretty much moot. I think I'm going to go for reserved in Seattle next time. It's hard though GA's so awesome. You know the odds are way less, but the gambling part of ones brain still wants to go for it :)



    A lot of people used their first 6-7 picks for various Philly and NYC shows in 2016. When their 8th pick of a southern city came up, they lost those as well.

    If you want Philly or NYC, you're best to use two picks max there with a ticket buddy and then use picks three and higher on other cities.
