    Anyone else find 2014 tickets in their TicketHorse account? I know we're getting close to the renewal period, but was surprised to see them already. My account shows they were added on 7/24/2013. The prices are slightly higher than the prices listed for the current season, but match the 2013 pricing listed on the Rapids' site:

    I only have this year's tickets in my account, but my ticket rep did call me and had a conversation about renewal late last week. Given the time in the season and the excitement, I would think it is time to get some renewals going.

    Did they say anything about pricing? My 2013 tickets match what's on the website now*, which is the same as I paid in 2012.

    (*In case the website changes: $646 West VIP; $544 West sideline; $476 East Sideline $374 South Endline, $238 North Endline.)

    We did not chat about pricing, I didn't ask figuring it was a topic to think about later. Given that we have been season ticket holders for quite some time, I am pretty sure we will sign up again. Maybe even add a couple more seats for friends/family. Our goal is to take over our little section of 108. :)

    Spoken like a Fuskie Snob. Ducks welcome all, if anything to help them realize the truth. :)

    (that last part sounds dangerously close to a recent board members boasting!)

    Wow. Sounds like I'm the only one with an order for 2014 tickets in my Ticket Horse account. (You guys are looking at the Ticket Horse site, not Flash Seats? Under Order Details?) I'm still waiting to hear back from my rep about it.

    A while back, my rep mentioned the Rapids were considering the possibility of 3-year renewal packages. Sounded like the packages would be used to take the edge off price increases by allowing STH's to lock in the current pricing for the term.

    I see them in my Tickethorse account--transaction date is 7/24/2013. Same price as the 2013 tickets.

    Just looked and mine popped up in the last few days in Tickethorse. My wife had a conversation with our rep, Jordan this week as well. I can't remember what she said about pricing . If there's an increase, provided it's not astronomical and outrageous, we can handle it. I think it's a no-brainer we are renewing our 4 seats. We've been really satisfied in our 1st season as STHs. Jordan has been great to work with. He's gone above and beyond on two occasions. The first being scoring a great deal on a patio table when my whole family came into town and by sending a signed jersey and ball to my 21-yr. old sister-in-law who was hospitalized for 69 days with a rare illness. Just pure class on his part.

    I hope everyone renews! Well...... Except for the fat guy that sits on the very end of my row in Section 127. I swear he does nothing but scream and holler all damn game at the ref. He doesn't pay attention to anything else. He's an idiot! But oh well........ There's probably one in every section.

    Glad to hear you have enjoyed your 1st season as a season ticket holder. Hope for the sake of everyone, the costs don't change much. Though it is nice seeing our season ticket numbers climb.

    Do you hear the people in 126 who yell "YOU SUCK!" at everyone? Those people bother me more.

    Sure do. It does annoy me, too. IIRC, there's a chick, in that section, probably early 40's, who's pretty boisterous and she scream about fouls, offisdes, etc. that clearly has no idea what she's talking about. It's pretty comical to say the least. But idiots are part of the ambiance of going to the ballpark. It happens at Pepsi, Coors Field, and Sports Authority. I can laugh it off 98% of the time. It can sometimes bring life to a stale game that's for sure!

    Yup. Like nails on a chalk board. I swear against RSL I thought she was going to have an aneurysm in between screams at the ref and her dislike of Beckerman. I could just see that vein in her neck popping out. It's hilarious, in a not so great way, to hear a grown woman act like this. However, every game with her boisterous voice is entertaining! ;)

    Do you STHs have luck reselling your tickets that you can't use? I like the idea, but with my kid's crazy schedules, we would be lucky to make any more than 1/2 of the games.

    Never tried that, either have given away or you can trade in for future games to bring more people, some games are blacked-out for this.

    If you join C38- you get a discount and choice of crazy end line or section 108.

    I have sold a few, but tend to trade them in for other games instead. The ones that people want to buy are the popular ones (4th of July, etc). We make slightly more than half of the games, use the balance of the tickets to bring friends/family/neighbors to games.

    Her twin sister must be behind us and over in section 130. The difference is the chick behind us only yells at the Rapids. Still, she's better than the guy right behind me who always brags about being a STH, but never seems to know anything about the team. Overheard him on 7/27 asking why Pablo was wearing the other team's colors.

    Spoke to my rep. Apparently renewals were announced at the STH party (which is news to me because I was there). As incentive for renewing in August (with 10% down) blackouts for ticket exchanges will be lifted for all remaining home games. That's all 2 games. o_O
