had my tickets for 2 weeks now and just opened the envelope,,,,Row 10, seats 17&18....not bad, should put me smack dab in the middle of the action. I get to go onto the field before the game, hopefully there will be some players out there ,,,should be pretty cool, good photo ops hopefully
hope your right but even if its a smaller crowd it will look and feel like a big one because of the bleacher type seats. Weather is suppose to be awesome, Sunny and about 80 at kickoff
7pm kickoff, er, not much sun but i'll take 80 anytime! this is gonna be a wild atmosphere. sans being at the wc, this is IT for me.
Saturday's paper said that the $150. and the $80. seats are sold out. That's that covers the seats on-field and between the 35 yardlines in the lower bowl. I just checked ticketmaster and the $60. seats available are in the upper bowl. I don't think they sold many upper bowl tickets last year. Last game in town had a huge walk-up sale, with the projected weather I see no reason for that not to repeat. 30K sold, I hope?
If anyone has two extra tickets in the Sam Army section, please let me know. You can PM me on bigsoccer or email kpirouz@saul.com. Thankfully my schedule now allows me to go to this game, and I'm bringing my younger brother. Come on U.S.!!!
such a a strange thing that the high end tickets go first and the cheapest tickets are left. Happens for all american sporting events, just the opposite in most soccer stadium of the world. Blood starting to boil, so excited. Hartford, noontime, let's get it on!
Hey! I'm also looking for 2 extra Sams Army tickets if anyone's got some. My email's justkmh@yahoo.com. Thanks!
yikes you think me and my buddies will be able to walk up and get the cheapest tickets or will those be gone? edit: the stadium only holds 40k? dammit im going to be in the nose bleeds
Hey all. In deperate need of only one Sams Army ticket for tomorrow. If you can sell me one at face value, it's appreciated. E-mail me at homerun095@aol.com or drop me a PM if you can help me out. Thanks
There are no nosebleeds at Rentschler Field. If you want to buy extras, a good place to do it might be Pratt Street before the match, or if you can't make it there then there's a box office at the gate. Don't let the ticket sales count scare you into not going, I haven't seen any mention of a sellout yet.
I bought two tickets in 114 around 6pm today. So there are still tickets available in the lower level.
The GF and I are coming up from Baltimore on Amtrak tommorrow, and should be landing on Pratt St. around 4pm. I am so psyched I don't think I will be able to sleep tonight. I can't wait to see the new kit (and buy one hopefully - only 2006 jerseys available?). The atmosphere last year in Chicago for the USA v. England was more limey than anything else so I am really jazzed for the full USA experience.
Just making sure you know how close the Amtrak station is to Pratt St. There is a free circulating bus that runs in front of the station and passes Trumbull St., or just walk, it's 2 blocks away. You may know this but I'm just making sure people realize how easy it is to get to, I want these street parties to become an official part of USA international matches!
woke up at 6:30 and it is like christmans morning, had to go to gym to kill a little time. Let's go have some fun and show we are a world class team that has world class fans. Had a thought for Sams army in the future to get more of the fans involved. Could we at one point send 20-25 army members to every other section and agree upon 3-4 consecutive chants to help the other sections become part of the game, just a thought at 6:30am this morning
Quick question for all, I go to Rentschler Field all the time for other events, and was wondering if there was anyway after the game that I can wait for the boys. Any help would be appreciated?
For the ticketless and panic stricken-I just got tix in 114 moments ago. With the fabulous weather in CT right now, I sense a sell out. You may want to get on the horn...
Yeah - they made it sound like time had just expired for sales. No way to call the box office? I wonder when they open...
I didn't get out of work till 5 and I'm a 3 hour drive from Hartford watching on tv will have to suffice
