(First, an apology for people who didn't hear back if they emailed Nicole on Fri, she had a server issue. Please get your orders in early, don't wait til Fri!) Eastern Conference Final DC United v New England Revolution Saturday, November 6 at RFK 7 pm United is in the conference final, with a trip to MLS Cup 2004 on the line. It's time to come out and support the team! Tickets are available in the Nest (sections 132-133-134) through the Screaming Eagles. Here’s the deal: SE member price- $23 per seat Non-member price ** - $26 per seat If you fail to order tickets in advance, we will be selling day of game tickets for their face value of $28. Cash only on day of game and no guarantee that seats will be available. Ticket orders should be sent to tickets@screaming-eagles.com as early as possible (no later than 4pm on Friday, November 5). Orders may also be placed by calling the SE ticket hotline, 202-544-6744, mailbox #1. All orders will be confirmed by e-mail. If you don’t receive a confirmation, your order was not received, so try again or call! Please indicate the number of seats you want to purchase, your desired location, and your payment preference. Season plan holders will be given their regular seats unless you ask for something different. There is no limit on the number of seats you can purchase, but there is no group rate or exchange policy in effect for this match. I’m also sorry to report that discounted parking passes are not available for Lot 8, thanks to the stadium authority. As usual, SE members have two payment options – COD at the SE ticket booth on November 6 or prepayment via credit card. Non-members must pay in advance using a credit card, which means providing us with your name as it appears on the card, the number and expiration date, plus a telephone number where you can be reached. Tickets can be picked up at the SE ticket booth on November 6, starting at 5pm (PLEASE COME EARLY, SO THE TM CAN ENJOY THE GAME-K) ** Join the SEs for only $20 and get your tickets at the lower price. Membership will save you money on the SE road trip to the MLS Cup match, too! Contact me for an application that you can mail along with a check payable to Screaming Eagles, Inc., PO Box 15878, Washington DC20003 so we receive it before the game or that you can bring with you on Nov. 6.

I think it should be said that Nicole is a true stalwart. She does such a good job that it can be easy to take it for granted. We should all thank her for the work she does to truly set the league standard for fan volunteers. Cheers, Tim
I don't get to as many games as i used to but I can think of no other place to be Saturday. I sent the TM a note for a couple seats in the Nest.
I'm constantly impressed with the great work Nicole does for the members of the SEs. I know I've asked her questions, ordered tickets, changed orders and generally probably been a PITA to her, but she's constantly helpful, prompt and friendly. Nicole Rocks!!!!
As someone who serves with her on the SE executive committee, I'll add to the chorus. She has the toughest and probably the most thankless job of all of us, because no one notices when everything goes well, but everyone notices when something goes wrong - the tickets aren't there, the booth isn't open, the line is too long, etc. And yet, nothing ever seems to go wrong with her. Nicole is a goddess, plain and simple. Thank God for her.
Absolutely! Nicole has even been kind enough to accept my order late a few times. She truely is the best and deserves massive props!
I think I have PITA for Nicole wrapped up this season. I don't know how many times I have bugged her with questions....then again, gocaps and K have gotten several hundred emails from me as well. (that's why I tried to defend Natty during the NY trip.) Anyhow, I will be emailing you soon Nicole!.........again, I know. Can we change this thread to the Stroke Nicole the Ticketress?
I forwarded this thread to the TM and she's very touched (as she's wading through a mountain of ticket orders!) Keep them coming so we're sold out before game day! K
Due to a punk of a brother in law, I am the proud owner of a to-be-unused ticket in 134 . Face value is $26, PM me to take it. If you PayPal the cost to me, the Ticket Mistress is being kind enough to put the ticket in your name at the SE window so we don't have to worry about hooking up to take care of it (but that is an option too). Thanks, -dave
Bumpitty Bump. Any word on ticket sales in the Nest? I've found that I have an easier time convincing fence-sitters to get tickets in advance if I can tell them "the Nest is almost sold out, and tickets are going fast."
134 is full, 133 is almost full and there are seats available in 132 (we have 96 seats left out of a total of 325). K
Yeah, I got 2 in 134 yesterday, but when I went back for 4 additional seats I had to get them in 133. That's a good thing, though, because it means the place will be absolutely rockin'!
Woohooo, good for me then I have a nibble, but the ticket isn't claimed yet. I figure if by some odd chance I still have it tomorrow evening i'll start a thread specifically for it (hey it worked for my quiet side tickets). -dave
OK We have 26 tickets left. Remember the deadline to pre-order is Fri, Nov 5 by 4 pm (if we have anything left). GET TO THE WINDOW EARLY ON SAT TO PICK UP YOUR TICKETS. The window will open at 5 pm (I cannot stress enough to get there early). K
26 left. Amazing! Nice work. SportsTalk 980 is giving away a pair every hour during Free Ticket Thursday. You'd have to pick them up at their Silver Spring office though.
NEST UPDATE:THE OFFICIAL NEST IS SOLD OUT!!!!! However, we're getting some more tickets to acommodate folks who want a Nest experience. 18 seats in 132 20 seats in 139 30 seats in 236 (or the Perch) Contact Nicole ASAP to get the best selection as these will sell out fast too! K
So, what happens if I end up with tickets left for me (from the referees) but I want to come down into your area? Is this possible? I can't afford the trip down AND buying a ticket. Thanks for any info you can give me......
Just walk over, but wait for about 20 min. Or, arrange to have someone in that section come up and meet you carrying two ticket stubs.
The stub deal described above will work or you can merge into the Barra (135-136, they're a little more general admission). K
If you agree to commit serious acts of violence against the souless ones after the game, I think everyone in the Nest/Barra would buy you a ticket and a beer... I'm serious though, they probably would...
