Fedorov Posted May 28, 2003 Posted May 28, 2003 I see the pre-sale is going on now and I was wondering what kind of tickets people have been getting. I am curious what kind of tickets will be still available on Saturday. Quote
jimdahl Posted May 28, 2003 Posted May 28, 2003 As an FYI, my understanding is that the "presale" is only for those who have been given a presale password by REA. Tickets go on sale to the general public on Saturday, June 07, 10:00am. Quote
Fedorov Posted May 28, 2003 Author Posted May 28, 2003 anyone know the password? well, i wrote to them asking who was eligible for the password and they let me know the password, but I don't know who is supposed to have it. I don't know if it is only for season ticket holders or what. all i know is i don't want to get into trouble for spreading it, so I'm not going to directly tell anyone, but it isn't my fault if you figure it out.

airmail Posted May 28, 2003 Posted May 28, 2003 Tricky, Fedorov... very tricky. I bet you like getting to the games early to hear "Smooth Criminal", don't you?! Quote
kr Posted May 28, 2003 Posted May 28, 2003 When I went on line for tickets the ends seemed to be pretty open (row A and up) -- we took lower bowl corner seats and best available gave us row D -- that was mid-afternoon today. ** And thanks Fedorov for the reminder -- I totally forgot they went on pre-sale.

Diggler Posted May 28, 2003 Posted May 28, 2003 We got 103 on the glass. Stupid me forgot about them till yesterday afternoon. Quote
Fedorov Posted May 29, 2003 Author Posted May 29, 2003 I want to get tickets a few rows higher than were they are selling them now, but nobody seems to be buying tickets today. I would think there are some people on here that like lower seats. Quote
#1GreeneFan Posted May 29, 2003 Posted May 29, 2003 I got somewhere in rows 1-9 behind the Wild bench. We're getting ours through Altru. Quote

Fedorov Posted May 29, 2003 Author Posted May 29, 2003 like me...but I need to get clearance first. Airmail figured it out. You are a baseball fan, so you must know how to go down the batting order. Quote
MinnesotaNorthStar Posted May 29, 2003 Posted May 29, 2003 Airmail figured it out. You are a baseball fan, so you must know how to go down the batting order. I wasn't talking about the password...i figured that one out...it's a matter of paying for it. Quote
Fedorov Posted May 29, 2003 Author Posted May 29, 2003 I wasn't talking about the password...i figured that one out...it's a matter of paying for it. I did my best, but I can't help you out with that. With how few tickets appear to have been sold, it seems like people are having problems getting the password. Quote
MinnesotaNorthStar Posted May 31, 2003 Posted May 31, 2003 I got Section 109 Row D...anyone else nearby? Quote
Fedorov Posted May 31, 2003 Author Posted May 31, 2003 I got Section 109 Row D...anyone else nearby? I know where I like to sit in section 108, so I tried to get the same seats in 109, which is the same with the home team shooting twice if it is the same as last year. I watched the seats get up to row G, but I wanted row I (although I'm not sure if that is the row or not). I manipulated the Ticketmaster system so that I could get the exact seats I wanted. It was kind of a pain, but it will be worth it if I guessed the correct row. Quote
Fedorov Posted May 31, 2003 Author Posted May 31, 2003 I also hope that everyone on this board figured out the password so that they could get good seats. They may still have good ones, but I wanted to help out. I know people argue and disagree about different things, but I like when Fighting Sioux fans stick together. It is great when you are at away games because Sioux fans are always sticking together and really nice. It is too bad it isn't like that at home games. Oh well, I hope everyone has a good weekend.

dunker2001 Posted June 3, 2003 Posted June 3, 2003 I got tickets in section 109 row D as well. Seats 20 and 21. Quote
MinnesotaNorthStar Posted June 3, 2003 Posted June 3, 2003 I got tickets in section 109 row D as well. Seats 20 and 21. I'm in seat 5, two away from that little runway part (I think) behind the Sioux penalty box (I don't know who's it will be during this game). One row behind the box Quote
jimdahl Posted June 3, 2003 Posted June 3, 2003 I manipulated the Ticketmaster system so that I could get the exact seats I wanted. It was kind of a pain, but it will be worth it if I guessed the correct row. Way off topic... I've wondered for a while why Ticketmaster doesn't allow you to pick any open seat from their system (like the airlines' airplane seat maps). I guess their current transaction system works well for multiple simultaneous users (you request X seats of type 'C', it reserves them for 5 mins and returns their location to you). However, a system that let you pick seats could work by reserving the most similar remaining seats if you try to grab seats that have been taken since the screen had been rendered. It would be the standard 5-minute lock, allowing you to choose whether to accept those or try choosing again. The other stumbling block is the need for standard format electronic seating charts for all the venues, but Ticketmaster could demand that the venues supply those. Quote
~SiouxHockeyLover~ Posted June 3, 2003 Posted June 3, 2003 I wanna go!! Anyone wanna sell me their tickets? haha Quote
MinnesotaNorthStar Posted June 3, 2003 Posted June 3, 2003 I wanna go!! Anyone wanna sell me their tickets? haha Tickets go back on sale the 7th Quote
kr Posted June 5, 2003 Posted June 5, 2003 FWIW: if you did the pre-sale your tickets should arrive soon -- just received mine in today's mail. Diggler -- we are right behind you! We'll try to maintain the proper hockey decorum.... Quote

kr Posted June 6, 2003 Posted June 6, 2003 standard mail -- with delivery guarantee 48 hours prior to event -- I figure it is delivery roughly 2,808 hours prior to event -- so we should be o.k. I was shocked with how fast they arrived. (There was no charge for standard mail --- just an order processing charge of $3.10, a total convenience charge of $20.00, total building facility charge of $4.00 and then the price of the tickets.)
