Right, time is of the essence because of this new bloody 72 hour thing on the Visa waiver programe to travel to the States from England (i came into force yesterday of all days - we cant just will in the green form on the flight anymore).

Given i cant use stub hub or the like from the UK (it just doesnt work) and i cant get a ticket sent here in time i need somes suggestions as to how i can do this (and maybe a sofa to sleep on for a couple of nights :shock: )

I dont want to book flights without a ticket, and i cant apply to the US embassy site with no flight, so i'm stuck!

Mrs English has ok'd the trip (goodness knows why, and i'm waiting for work to do the same for the time off)

any ideas ona quick ticket solution?

Ben

Vegas, baby, yeah!
Have someone on the board buy it for you - there are posters here that are good to their word. You can then meet up in PHX and get the tickets - JMHO.

MESA! :thud:
Don't know how international stuff works, but could you paypal the money to someone here & have them buy a ticket for you? Or, as a crappier alternative, Western Union?

I really really hope you make it over; I wish I was able to go, but I spent all my spare cash flying over in November!

I don't have a ticket but he can crash at my house, I have an extra room.
I won't be making it to the game but I know there's alot of you guys that live in Chandler that could give him a ride.

I can get him one right now. Ring of honor.


Wow, well if you can get him the ticket and can crash at my place, all we need is to get him a ride to the game. (I can't make it)

Done, I bought him the ticket. Ring of Honor - Section 438 Row B. Great Ticket considering the hour. :newcards:

Price came out to 312.00 with shipping and 10% surcharge.

Blindseye - So he can stay with you right? I really don't have the room in my house, there are too many nino's around and he wouldn't be comfortable probobly. Let me know and I can pick him up or someone in Chandler.

Has anyone sent English a PM about this situation, just in case he doesn't check in on the board for a few hours?

Imagine if our government operated this efficiently? Our roads would be paved with gold.

I'm impressed, English. Anything for a trip over the pond, eh? :)

Somebody find this man a tailgate spot!

We live off of Warner and I-10 and he can ride with us. It is gonna be a tight fit as we have 6 people riding in a minivan but we will make room for another if it will help. We have a sober driver as well so no worries on getting back safe.
