Official 2024 Ticket Lottery Results Thread

I remember when having a good 10C number actually mattered.  That was cool.  Now we live in this "everyone gets a trophy" era and my years of faithfully maintaining my membership seems to not matter.  What's the point of having membership numbers if we're all just the same ping-pong ball in a lottery machine?

It's possible for each show there were 3 individual pulls for tickets.  First was for the GA section, then the P1 seats, and then for P2 seats.  If you checked all three you would have 3 chances to get seats.

Why wouldn't you have a chance at P1 if you only checked GA-P1 and P2? Or were there really 4 potential chances, GA, P1 linked to GA, P1 standalone, and P2. 

I got P1s for Vegas and B'more and only checked the GA-P1 box but not the P1 standalone box

the fact that selecting GA/P1 and P1 separately would increase your odds makes no sense at all

Well...except for the fact that the Ten Club said it did in the Pre-Sale info.

I believe that was more meaning select P1 and P2 , but who knows for sure

When was that, 25-30 years ago? It's been a lottery for a long, long time. 

Seniority is for seat location....although mine have been getting worse through the duration of my 20 year membership.

Right, "selecting multiple seat preferences will increase your chances" -- i.e., selecting GA-P1 increases your chances compared to just P1, and adding P2 increases your chances further, but checking P1 in addition to GA-P1 shouldn't increase your chances because P1 is the same seat preference you already selected. Unless there was a second pool of P1s that weren't included in the GA-P1 pool. If that's not the case, then P1 only should have been disabled (or automatically checked) once you selected GA-P1.

It's difficult to understand how someone could be going against what the fan club told us was the case. If they said right there in black and white that choosing more options increased your chances, why would you second guess it and not follow their instructions?

Some people are just too good to sit up in the nosebleeds.

And an example of what I just asked, so forget that. I guess it would help to see a lot more split like this -> there should be significantly more GA N1 and P1 N2 (or vice versa) examples that GA N1 and GA N2. I've noticed a lot more of the latter.

I've highlighted a key phrase.

The night before the Super Bowl, I went out and did karaoke with some friends. One of my friends performed "Ca plane pour moi." A few days later, I was watching a hockey game when I saw a Heineken commercial with that song in it that I'd never noticed before. I mentioned it to the friend. Shortly thereafter, he replied that he saw it on a different channel. The next night, we were at a bar and the commercial came on TV while we were there. I've seen it a few more times since then.

Did this commercial not exist until last week, or did we just not notice it until the song was top-of-mind after the karaoke performance? I looked it up, and it turns out the ad has been airing since January 9. We did karaoke on February 10. I noticed the commercial for the first time on February 13. So it's the second option (something sometimes called Baader-Meinhof Phenomenon).

With respect to the ticket lottery, it's something different. People are noticing things that fit the pattern they think they see and not noticing the things that don't. It is normal for humans to do this.

Also - people could be lying about their results.

There are huge variables at play here and it's quite interesting to see how people can think they are so sure of something when they basically know almost nothing.

Based on some of the questions being asked...I would bet a lot of people entered TM Verified Fan and thought that was their 10c registration. So they are like oh i lost...when truthfully they never entered.  Then there are also legit folks who know the drill and drew the short straw repeatedly.

I agree for the ones went 0/???

if you got at least one, you know you did it correctly.

I went 0/ and I have my request confirmation 

There were 2 confirmations sent. One was for the 10c tix and another for verified fan. It is possible to mix those two up and think they got shut out, but didn’t even enter the 10c.

I think my friend did this. He said he should hear Thursday about tickets. I said I think you'll hear Thursday for the verified sale, not the 10 Club sale. Sucks because he's a 10 Club member. They kind of made it seem you needed to be a 10 Club member for the verified sale. It was a tad confusing if you were multitasking.
