If you want tickets for either an Eagles home game or the Eagles Youth Partnership Carnival & Auction in August, you better mark June 14 on your calendars immediately.

The Eagles announced Friday that single-game tickets for all 10 home games will go on sale June 14 at 10 a.m. One hour later, tickets for the 12th annual Eagles Carnival and Auction, benefiting Eagles Youth Partnership, will be available. The Eagles Carnival and Auction will take place Sunday, August 27, from 3 to 8 p.m.

Eagles game tickets and Carnival Tickets can both be purchased online here. Tickets cannot be purchased in person at Lincoln Financial Field or at Ticketmaster outlets.

In an effort to make game tickets available to as many fans as possible, there is a limit of four tickets per game.

"We have attempted to create a system that will allow as many fans as possible the opportunity to purchase tickets," said Leo Carlin, director of ticket client relations. "By offering online and telephone options, we believe that fans will have an equitable opportunity to purchase the available seats."

Eagles single-game tickets can also be charged by phone through Ticketmaster at 215-336-2000. Eagles Carnival & Auction tickets are not available through Ticketmaster.

Carlin encourages fans to act fast. Last year, single-game tickets sold out quickly.

"We expect an equal or even greater demand this year," said Carlin.

The annual Eagles Carnival and Auction advance online ticket sale offers an opportunity for fans to purchase discounted admission tickets and to reserve autographs of high-profile players as well as locker room tours.

Last year's Carnival was a record-breaking success, raising more than $1 million for Eagles Youth Partnership programs like the Eye Mobile and Book Mobile. Activities included autographs, games, a silent auction, locker room tours, photo booths with players and the NFC Championship Trophy and a Super Bowl "grab bag" game.

also surprised he didnt spew the company line of "well we have that 60,000,000,000 person waiting list" for tickets.

They were supposed to send us on the mythical waiting list an update package in December. Ha.

And I like the fact that they are selling them on-line this year too. I'll be online and on the phone.

Nope. Someone asked him on his MB though and he said he had no information on it. When I see him at TC I'll ask him. I know I signed up back in 2001. So if they really have a list, I've been on the bitch for 5 years. It'd be nice to actually get season tickets before I have to check into Shady Acres rest home.

You think you'll live long enough to get to a retirement home watching this team?

PhillyPhreak54 · June 03, 2006, 02:23:28 AM

Hmmm. Yes.

But instead of being 80ish when I go in, I'll be in my 50's and look 80.

"Sir, your age please?"

"57."

(astonished look) "Wow!"

"I'm a Philadelphia sports fan, lady. Now go farg yourself and gimme a beer!"

Yea, I'll be trying too. I think it could be a bit easier this year than in the past, but that still might not mean much. Dallas game will be damn near impossible. Easiest game is what, Tennessee and Jacksonville?

mussa · June 03, 2006, 02:21:34 PM

I actually spoke to Leo Carlin a few weeks ago. The waiting list project is being finalized but theres no date nor any more information out there.

PhillyPhreak54 · June 03, 2006, 11:12:48 PM

Nice.

Hopefully I'm not too far off.

DH · June 03, 2006, 11:14:46 PM

You better be at the Linc on 10/8, Phreak...

PhillyPhreak54 · June 03, 2006, 11:16:46 PM

Oh hell yeah. I am submitting my time off requests on Monday. I'm putting in for 4-5 Sunday's off so I can go to some games. The Cowboys game is one of them.

We WILL unload on the Cowboys busses.
