Ticket Successes and Failures Thread

well, I got in for the 28th. . . .and it told me to try back later due to high volumes. . . . . . then it told me that terrace box infield seats were available. . . so I select that I want them. . . . . and then it says to try back later.

 

 

I want to hurt someone. . . . . .

keep trying you will get through...bleachers are the easiest to get

FWIW -- I've started having some success, but only after shutting all my browser windows and starting them up again. After restarting, I got in twice in about 15-20 mins, then sat around in VWR hell again, after another half hour I restarted browsers again and got in 2 more times.....

 

 

This technique just worked for me again -- no luck in the VWR from 9:30 - noon, then closing and restarting started to get me in.....

I gotcha, nilo. It's all good.

Keep trying it did that as I got in and I got the game I wanted. Don't hit back or you'll be back in the VWR.

The only option is to get single tickets not together.

 

Right now, I freakin' hate the Cubs organiztion. Almost 6 hours of waiting and to get thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis close.

[treebird]

I figured I might as well get another game since the first one was so easy, so I went ahead and threw on Sunday the 31st of July.

I now have one ticket in sec 206.

 

Screw 'em. I got in and they said 138 was available and then wouldn't let me buy. . . . .this is wonderful stuff.

It makes sense. My workplace's summer outing is at the Cell. It must be the network's fault. No wonder I haven't gotten through.

I tried to get 2 tickets away from each other but it wouldn't allow that.

 

It made me buy one ticket, then sent me on back to the waiting room.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

I feel for you, brother. I really do.

That really sucks. You may be able to get some singles without the VWR mess after this weekend. Scattered singles usually last awhile.

I dunno about the rest of you with tickets, but I am really feeling horrible for the people that don't right now. It's just so sad. Keep on trying, guys.

US and SSR, how do you feel about cards 9/18?

[USSoccer]

i wish i could get through to get kicked out at this point....the illusion of progress would be great.

It's not all it's cracked up to be.

 

Getting through only to have the carpet pulled out from under you is probably worse than not getting through at all.

[HerbalK]

That's a Sunday game. Awww, ya gotta feel for a guy who just wants to catch a game with his Dad.
