That's not a good sign. The chance of me getting tix went from about 1 percent to about .000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001 percent.

Gee, who might they be talking to? Hmmmm, I wonder who might be buying all those season tix for '06. Who could possibly spring for all that cash on such short notice?
October 17, 200520 yr QUOTE(Steff @ Oct 17, 2005 -> 04:52 PM) Full season only folks.. Wow. Wow, didnt expect that. Oh well, buy a full season of club tix my friends and join me in the lobby for a brew!!!
October 17, 200520 yr my girlfriend just said that they annouced it on the news and on the radio....so basically there is no way im getting through
October 17, 200520 yr Great idea by the Sox. Being in the position I'm in trying to get tix, I hate it, but its a great job by Brooks and the marketing department.
October 17, 200520 yr It's really not that great of an idea if you are talking about pleasing the fans, as they just pissed us off even more. The majority of people jumping on this deal are brokers.
October 17, 200520 yr Maybe they will just come to Cobb Field in Billings and play their WS games? B) B)
October 17, 200520 yr im very pissed off...it is impossible to get ahold of anyone and on the web site they said that they are accepting deposits online...well there is no link to a form that will accept a deposit of over the 205 per seat
October 17, 200520 yr split season plan, weekend only games, its cheap, and 27 games is alot. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I work 40-50 hours a week and go to school basiclly full-time even on weekend I have no time to do it.. I would love to.. had them before and want them back.. but school is more important right now.
October 17, 200520 yr i don't know if brokers would buy all the season tickets (FULL SEASON) up on this deal. maybe I'm wrong, but I can't think that this would work *that* well.
October 17, 200520 yr I can't think that their phone bank is that big. 10-15 lines maybe? If 100 people take the deal, their phone lines are tied up for a while? Just guessing. Maybe dreaming. Who knows?
October 17, 200520 yr QUOTE(THEWOOD @ Oct 17, 2005 -> 02:42 PM) who are all these people that are calling if they are not brokers?? Sox fans that may have been turned off by the strike or people that were casual Cub fans that have watched this team and taken a liking to their style. They want to see the series badly and think they'd like season seats (maybe for there company or just for themselves) so they come in and buy them up now. Heck, there may be a lot of Sox fans who long said if the Sox make the playoffs and do well I'd buy and now they have an extra incentive since it would give them world series tickets. I would guess they may get 1000 seats sold from this at most. I couldn't see much more than that, but I do think you'll see a big time increase in the season ticket base and I could be wrong, they could get even more deposits than just that. If I lived in Chicago I'd be damn tempted to do it. Find the cheapest package, buy 4 seats and find 3 other people to go in 4th's with the tix and it wouldn't be all that bad, especially if your a big fan and would have the opportunity to hit up a lot of games as is.
October 17, 200520 yr I've been to every White Sox home playoff game in 2005. The streak is NOT looking good. Anyone with an extra ticket need somebody to carry their stuff around and go back and forth to the concourse to get/bring back food?
