Just a curiosity: Did they always inflate the face value of CAT III tickets 75% for tripleheaders? We haven't had one since 2005 I think. But yeah, that price is awesome. I bet we fill up The Fort all the way to the corner.
The price is still holding me back. My eyesight is pretty bad so if i sit behind the goal i cant see anything happening past the midfield. I need to sit closer to the center, and the prices theyre charging are ridiculous I predict once again Gillette will have the lowest attendance for a USA game in the tournament.
Its a good thing they announce it too. I just wished that they opened up the next tier and sold 10$ seats. Wouldnt help me, but it would be nice to see a big crowd. Also, anyone know why the 2nd game starts at 7pm and not 6pm? What are we supposed to do for an hour.
Yeah, I found that a little weird, too. Everyone needs to make sure to lock up anything they don't want stolen from the tailgate.
Another reason ticket prices should be lower. Are fans allowed to go to their cars during the break, or is there no re-enty? If theres no re-enrty, then theyre going to make a killing on concessions. 7 hours = a shitload of food and drinks. I also wonder how many people will leave after the revs, and how many will wait to arrive at 7pm? Im guessing the 3rd game will be pretty empty...
Timeout. This may be a stupid question and I may be late to the part with it, but is this tripleheader not part of our ST package? As in, is this tripleheader not going to be Special Event A?
Signage changeover. Advertisers are different for the Gold Cup games than MLS games. And yes, 6:30 would be a better start time, but I bet 7 p.m. was chosen as a nice, easy round nunber. No re-entry (having gone to a number of these tripleheaders.. by the way, the last one was 2007 AFAIK). I think the real question is how many will leave after the US game and how many will wait till arrive at 9 p.m. The reason is because I bet there is more crossover between Revs and US fans than between Honduras and Revs fans. My bet is the third game will have less fans than the first two, but Honduras is a pretty decent draw here, so I don't think it will be empty ala the Canada/Cuba game a number of years ago. It is part of our season ticket package if only because the first game is between the Revs and KC and it would too much of a hassle for them to clear the stadium and readmit people within an hour timeframe. My bet is that it will cover Special Event A as well, but I haven't seen anything (can we be really lucky and they'll just consider it a bonus to the Revs - KC match?). Mike
If you're a season ticket holder, A. Head to the parking lot on the Rev final whistle for grillin and cheap beers. B. Re-enter stadium on a cheap $23 ticket offered at the top of this thread. C. Return to your season ticket seat in time for the U.S.A. first kick. Hmmm, this may leave empty seats in the GA area. Rethinking ...
