    If I recall they did picks in chronological order of the shows... i.e. Seattle results may be released first?
    I was going to ask that.......  I am 100% Wrigley so wasn't sure if they picked by GA by Stadium first.
    First - Chicago, Illinois (March 10, 1994) *
    In Between - Chicago (9), East Troy (4) Champaign (1), Noblesville (1), Moline (1)
    Last - Wrigley (August 20, 2016)

    I believe it said everyone would know their fate by Tuesday morning.

    You will know if you won or lost all of your drawings at once. I think they do all of the draws and then start sending the emails out.

    When they get to Chicago, they will do Night One GA, looking at all people who put it in as Top Choice, then people put in as 2nd choice, and so on.  Once they fill up GA they will move on to Night One Reserved

    Ended up doing
    Seattle 1 GA
    Seattle 2 GA
    Boston 1 reserved
    Boston 2 reserved

    I'll be happy with anything as I'm not even 100% sure I can make Seattle 
    Why would you do that, you get tickets and can't go you screw a fan that can go out of tickets?

    Is that really how it works? I put in Chicago #1 Reserved as 1st choice and Chicago #1 GA as 2nd choice, as a backup to get in the door. Are you saying that I might get GA over Res regardless if there are Res tickets available? That doesn't make sense to me. Or am I reading what you wrote incorrectly.

    That is correct. The chances of Chicago 1 making it to the second round though is 0%. This only works in cities where the GA makes it past the first round.

    That's how they do it.  They fill up the GA first and only then select Reserved.  So you could win with your #2 choice and then void your #1 choice.

    Yes you could possibly get GA even though you put reserved at 1st choice

    They always fill up GA first... if you absolutely don't want GA don't select it at all

    If I remember correctly we should see a change in the my tickets page when the drawing is done and the notifications are being sent out. I remember some people had one thing and some had something different. Blue compared to Green or something. Anyone remember?
