Well, not that it will do any good for next week or even 50 days from now in AZ
...but it will still add to the other-all, "big picture" for the year, and give a more complete perspective of what goes down at the Ticket Office in each situation:
As I was told, at about 7:35 a.m. Saturday morning Ticket Office Officials were sent out to inform everyone in line that there were no tickets and no intentions of even selling any tickets that might be turned in (however slim a chance that may be).
As we walked over toward the Schott we saw several people walking away with chairs and sleeping bags. We got closer and saw an empty "line" along the Schott wall, the only indication that there used to be a group of hopeful, early morning Ticket buyers was the garbage left behind (lots of disposable coffee cups & McDonalds bags...even a couple beer cans
). Man, I feel sorry for those who braved the late night and early, early morning cold to only be turned away. (the sheriff even told me that he broke up the "party", telling everyone that they would be arrested for trespassing if they didn't move along).
I had a brother check back periodically to see if any tickets at all were turned back in or sold and he was told "absolutely none."
So, what about everyone else? Anyone spend the night only to be shafted by "the man"?
Did anyone find a "saintly" fan who sold an "extra" for anything near a reasonable price? Did anyone hold out until right up 'till, or even a bit after kickoff...what were tickets going for then?
Anything anyone can share will add to the helpful info we can use for next season and will be much appreciated.
P.S.
What a win! What a great year!! GO BUCKS!!!
