Buy Some Tickets...Fix Some Roads?

[phillywin2k5]

I couldnt get thru any phones, i tried atlanta, then maryland, pa, delaware.

Online after waiting for 12 minutes for cowboys tickets a window popped and said you have multiple browsers open, and to basically start over 

only way to do that is to have say 1 IE and 1 Firefox open. Tabs dont work.

NOTE: the Ticketmaster.com links started taking lines at 9:55am not 10am

are these extra tickets for home games?

[phattymatty]

I was told online that there was a problem with my request so it kicked me out. 

yep.  i actually got tickets to two games but three straight times it told me that my credit card number wouldn't go through.  cost me an extra 10 minutes at least.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

I didn't even try.  I guess I saved myself some hassle.

I wonder if the Eagles realize that this sort of bragging does more to aggravate the fans than them actually scalping their own tickets?:

Single Game Tickets Sold Out In Minutes


June 14, 2007

Single-game tickets to Eagles home games sold out Thursday morning. On sale at 10 a.m. via internet and telephone, tickets were snapped up by fans as fast as they were made available.

"This sale is overwhelming," said Leo Carlin, who has seen close to five decades of football in Philadelphia as he enters his 48th season as director of client ticket relations with the Eagles. "Twenty years ago, it was not unusual that tickets could be purchased the day of the game. Now, the demand for tickets surges each year and the tickets go even faster than the year before. It is a powerful display of fan passion."

Try and get there early enough so I'm not so farged up that I don't recognize you like last year.

[phattymatty]

the ability of this front office to toot their own horn (even in the faces of their own fans) is almost uncanny

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Leo Carlin doesn't even give us the common courtesy of a reach-around.

[Rome]

I wonder what the aggregate blood alcohol content of the fans in the stadium will be on September 17th at game time?


1. Hope opener.

2. Playing the Deadskins.

3. 8:30 PM start.


  Burp.

[ice grillin you]

ill be there at 11am and probably drunk by 2

[rjs246]

I farging love night games. Especially night games against the Skins. They probably represent 4 or five of the top 10 drunkest times of my life.

[phillywin2k5]

well atleast they arent the Giants or Jets who dont even sell A SINGLE ticket to the fans, all 75,000 are season tickets.  Eagles are good at bragging about garbage like being the paper champion of the Salary Cap, or being the Copper Standard in the NFL, giving Eagles fans a chance to buy single game tix (which was mandated in the contract with the city to buy the landfill for the stadium, etc etc etc. The FO should just STFU and be a leader instead of selling lies. They sidestep the state law for scalping by paying for advertising to RazorGator by the means of single game tix.
