    Sounds like Europe, kings without countries and more inbreeding than an Arkansas trailer park.

    Is that the jack-ass that was rude to you, or at least not shy about lying straight to your face, at the supporter's ticket meeting?
    Or a different jack-ass?

    Nope, thats the total douche. he is one of the 2 main people behind this bullshit. Tom Hunt is the other. 1 is gone! Wish Tom would go too, but no way that will happen until new ownership.

    I wouldn't be surprised if he was the one who assured the ownership he could sell out most of the stadium with season tickets including all of the supporters section.

    Yeah and the stupid seat lottery. They built this brand new stadium and less than half is STHs. They are still cheating on the team. Gonna be a fiasco and I hope the whole FO gets sacked

    Some wisenheimer at a Lot 8 tailgate last year predicted that, after the first-season-at-Audi "couldn't sell-out all the available STHs" clusterspew, the SGs would suddenly find themselves in an increasingly strong bargaining position vis-a-vis the FO.

    I support banning smoking 1,000,000% -- go smoke in the parking lot.

    That's first grade math at best :) it's impossible. I read anything above 100% as 0%.
    You can't get to and from the parking lot during a game but a nice large place where smoking is allowed on the concourse would be acceptable. Put it by the BBQ stand, or whatever food is the smokiest :)

    But really at RFK? a) who cares; and 2) it was funny that they wouldn't allow you to smoke outside, you had to go "inside" to smoke.

    At RFK, smoking in the actual seating areas was frowned upon. Now maybe in the SG areas late in the game, who cared. But there certainly was never any smoking on the Quiet Side. There was smoking along the chain link fencing on the open air sides of the concourse, but never in the seating area. Probably public health codes which are pretty universal, like no smoking in office buildings or restaurants . So, basically they want you to act like an adult.

    The old FO didnt care about smoking cigars, cigs and all, they let us have that as there was other issues they cared about, but it was only in supporter sections. New FO came in, changed the rules, hence why we got CSC in front of us and not the cops anymore.

    Looks like the squeeze on the non SE SGs is league wide.

    The SE's have always charged non-members more for away game tickets than members. That part is nothing new.

    In the past, they didn't have a monopoly on sales. Not at home and not away. So Barra or DU could buy the tix and sell them to their own members with or without a markup.

    I'm absolutely disgusted by the leadership of the Screaming Eagles. Seriously, just fück them.

    The SEs apparently told the other groups that there would be no mark-up regardless of affiliation. The point of that tweet was it shows a double mark-up, one in general, and one for non-members
