Fedex Race

[DMunited]

I'm with 8:43 Club. God speed little package.

[Magpie Maniac]

I have been had!!!! My Fedex package from CA somehow missed the morning delivery truck in Chicago and its status now reads DELIVERY EXCEPTION. I called FEDEX and they apologized but offered no explanation.

Ouch. Sorry to hear that.

Ok, the envelope has less than 30 minutes to get to Soccer House.

[Joel Goodson]

I sent mine from Bermuda yesterday night. It's been to NJ, Memphis, Chicago and is on the truck with everyone else's at 8:43am. Do I win the prize for the longest distance like people announce at a wedding?

[Hosscat]

7:09 AM signed by F. Furtal here.... Whoever this person is, they did a hell of a lot of signing at 7 :09 AM.

My UPS package was signed for by "POLK", location "FRONT DESK", at 9:42AM.

please God I want to go to Germany

[Magpie Maniac]

A pessimist is never disappointed.

I'm not going to even expect anything positive to come from this 24 hour-long odyssey. If I end up with tickets, it'll just be a pleasant surprise. I fully expect to be watching the WC from my couch.

[Old Man!]

I didn't even ask for a required signature upon delivery. I thought that if F. Furtal had to sign several hundred envelopes, they'd each end up at the bottom of the stack.

I thought the same thing, but it was signed for anyway. This makes me think there were a bunch of FedEx envelopes and some required signatures, and others didn't so they all got signed for (one signature on that electronic clip board).

James K.? Hey, stranger things have happened.

[Old Man!]

If I get tickets, I'm going to get an F. Furtal jersey.

[Magpie Maniac]

It's 10:30 CST. That tuckin' fruck had better step on the gas.

If the USSF desk staff had any sense of humor, they'd sign as...Art Vandelay

[MikeLastort2]

According to FedEx, my package is also on the 8:43 AM FedEx truck.

[Bill63]

Still on the G-D truck!!!!!!!

[Sagz]

Im going to be sad If I dont get tickets, and that truck driver is now 10min late.

How many people are going to be like me? Ill be in germany, but may not have tickets to a single game. I do have some conditional tickets on order from fifa. One of them is E1vsE2 (now italyvsghana). If all else fails maybe Ill get the conditional games.

[mandrake]

Fed Ex people, don't despair just yet, the UPS page didn't tell me until about 1120 ET that the package had been delivered at 1042ET. Maybe the same for Fed Ex?

Art Vandelay is an architect. He would not be working for USSF.

[Bill63]

Perhaps, but what could be taking 3 hrs and 15 min. to deliver? No tix and I might just have to randomly, no first come first serve, kneecap some US Soccer employees!

Hey, if Mike Brown can go work for them, so can Art Vandelay. :p

Good news! Delivery confirmed at 9:43 AM. (CST or EST is unknown to me.) S. Polk performed the ceremony.
