    Re: USA-Argentina: Roadtrip Like a Rock Star!

    I got ripped off paying Sam's Army for those same tickets! That's absurd. How are they charging supporters different prices? Why did I pay $57 plus $7 shipping last week on sams-army.com if they are going to turn around and sell them cheaper through other supporters clubs on BigSoccer? Why the hell advertise a strict deadline for SA tickets then turn around and screw those who bought early? Are the SE's subsidizing the price of those tickets or did I just get screwed out of 14 bucks?

    I'm not hating on the SE's here - I'd like to get on the bus and everything as that sounds like a sweet ride (is that possible w/o a buying a ticket?), but I'm a bit confused why some US supporters get cheaper seats than others in the same damn section. I know I should probably take this up with the Sam's Army and not the SE's, but I thought I would ask here.

    All I know is Jess called US Soccer and asked for a group order of tickets in the Sam's Army section and viola, we had them. According to the US Soccer website, they waive the service fees for group orders. I have no idea how SA handled their tickets, I'm sorry if they screwed you.

    Jess is creating a wait list for people who want ride only (we need to make sure we balance our tix and seats). Cost is $45

    Thanks for the reply - makes sense, glad you guys can get a deal. And yes, I'm just that cheap that I would complain about the $14. :)

    Missourirob,
    I can understand how you feel. It was a similar situation with the USA v England match. SA charged a bit more than US Soccer but you could buy them in pre-sale through SA.

    It all depends on how quickly people wanted to secure their tickets.

    As for a trip up, I might be able to get you on the bus -- I just need to sell full packages first. Thanks for understanding on that.

    I'll keep you posted. Sales are goiing much faster than I expected on this....
    Must be the stripper poll! :p

    You're on the list sans Bombo drum for now.

    Although, the bombo drum has been requested:

    I can confirm this. Actually, if you count the happy hour where the bar turned into a strip club I have been to multiple strip clubs with K.

    Ah, the good old days...



    The bus is filling up very quickly (much faster than I expected) so if you're thinking about it, get on board ASAP!

    Sir!

    That is vile, offensive, and downright nasty. Such a vision is anathema! Our souls will burn in everlasting hellfire!

    Unless, of course, he waxes his back...

    There it is.

    :D

    FYI:
    Right now I am only taking sign up's for people who need the whole package (bus ride and ticket).
    I have a wait list for people who just need a ride.

    I'll keep you posted.

    You could just coat the pole with Nair.

    I think you could sell tickets.

    If the beers hadn't shrunk in size and doubled in price, that would have been the best happy hour ever. :D
