Where are your new seats?

Does anyone know how availability in the endzone is looking?

We did get an estimate in the 40-50k seats expected to be sold as ST. They do have a significant # of folks in line after us die hards get our pick.

Also a lot of folks are getting more seat than they had originally.

what do youmean more seat than they originally had. Do you mean they are getting more seats or paying more than they thought they would?

I think he means that people will be selecting additional seats after the initial seat selection.

 

[Sandan]

The guy was estimating a total 45-50k seats sold before all is said and done

 

[SECTION 11]

We're in section 406, seats 18 &19.

 

[D-Dogg]

We're in section 406, seats 18 &19.

Gonna have to change that name...

I also got Staci...somehow I managed to concentrate on the tickets for a couple of seconds, though.

Good gawd, Staci helped me too.



She's real nice, but I got pissed because I couldn't buy two more seats for my kids then.

I got Section 437

 

[jstadvl]

sec. 131 row 7 seats 17 & 18. Right on the 39 yard line.

 

[Jttsaz]

Pretty much same place I was at SDS..I was sec. 4 row 17 seats 21-22...now I'm row 104 row 17 seats 15-16 2 seats away from the aisle(towards the 50yl)

An Immodest Proposal

This would probably be too daunting a task, but if there's someone out there with too much time on his/her hands -

How cool would it be to have everyone tell this board where their seats are located and then have someone volunteer to put those peoples' screen names in the appropriate location on a blank stadium seating diagram so that each of us would know where everyone else was sitting.

Just a thought.

Section 128, Row 16. I used to sit in Loge...to be in the same area I was in (now called club seats - but alot nicer than the old loge) the price was $200 per ticket and requires a minimum 3 year commitment..I decided I wanted to be closer to the action and pay $75 per ticket....so the cost just went down for me (compared to last season).

Kind of strange...showed up like 15 minutes before my appointment (saturday afternoon). checked in like everyone else....People kept coming in after me..and were getting called immediately.. About 10 minutes after my scheduled appointment time - my cell phone rang. It was someone from the cardinals ticket office (where I was waiting).......wondering if I was going to keep my appointment. I said.....yes......I been standing here waiting for 25 minutes...with everyone else....I checked in and everything...showed them my drivers license and my letter..... The guy on the phone said...oh....I will be right out...he came out....I kind of said..what is up with that? He mentioned that he had seem me standing there as he came out for his other appointments......

So...if they are running past your time...you might go up and say...hey....are you sure I am checked in? Seems they somehow lost that I was waiting in the lobby after I checked in.

 

[Mrospi]

That was one of the hardest decision in sometime.....Section 105 Row 2 seats 1 & 2 for the wife & I.....would have possibly did the club seats if they didn't want a 3 year commitment....Not sure where I could be in 3 years. Hopefully here but who knows. Anyway we are near the area where the Cards take the field... so pretty happy..... I am sure i drove the lady nuts that was trying to help us.......I must have had her pull up 20 sections

I had nearly the same thing happen. When I went up to inquire why everyone was going ahead of us, he said people who had asked for seats in the club sections had different ticket salesmen/women than those in the regular seats.

 

[pinnacle]

40 yr fan. That may make sense.... I had expressed an interest in club seats - and since I was a loge holder in the old stadium...perhaps I was assigned to a specific person (appears I was).

 

[Sandan]

You are a couple of rows in front of us Pin.

I'm guessing you were the one pulled those of the board a nonsec ahead of us. 9am appointment on friday ?

 

[pinnacle]

Nidan: we did not choose seats until almost 4:30 - but we are closer to the middle of the row vs. the aisle..

 

[Toro]

I was there yesterday at 1130. Sections 107,108, 109, 110 were sold out. The two sections between the 40's on the visitors side were sold out.

Ring of Honor is also a hot ticket. sold out to the corners on the Cardinals side.

The girls said that many SDS loge STH are moving down to get closer to the action. And a lot cheaper!

 

[Mrospi]

Does anyone know how availability in the endzone is looking?

A-Bomb

As of Feb 11 saturday 2pm.... the endzone still had alot to sell... of course the first couple rows were sold out and the seats on the end are going quick.... that seems to be the two top criteria... up front & on the ends

 

[Sandan]

Nidan: we did not choose seats until almost 4:30 - but we are closer to the middle of the row vs. the aisle..

Ok, not you then

 

[sly fly]

Ok, my appointment isn't until early March (just re-upped my season tix last year). Our seats we're in loge, but highly doubt I'll shell out the $$$ for the 3 seats I had.

So, what's left? Will I be able to sit between the 40's lower-level?

If not, what are the best seats remaining (either side)?

 

[BigRedMachine]

I was really happy with the whole process yesterday. Bill Bidwill was there and we got to say hi. That was fun. He is a jolly old sole isn't he? Did anyone else get to meet with him?

I did ask a lot of questions and for the most part I thought the guy that helped me had great answers. I asked that question about disabled seating and I was told that you do not have to be in a wheelchair but just have a disability that would prevent walking up or down a flight of stairs. You don't have to show proof of a disability to get those seats but if it is found that someone is abusing the system, they can investigate and take away your tickets. The truth is that the ADA says they can not discriminate by asking what types of disabilities, etc. I also asked about parking and they had nothing for me in that area. All they could tell me is that there are about 15,000 spaces or something like that and plenty more around the stadium.

We actually upgraded our seats a little as far as yard line. We are now on about the 25 on the Cardinals side. Sec 105, row 6 so I have no complaints.

 

[Sandan]

So, what's left? Will I be able to sit between the 40's lower-level?

For the lower deck.

No, gone already. I expect between the 30s to be gone in a day or so, if not gone already

Take a look at us. Sec 128 on about 38yd line. That was friday, the rest of thesection is filling up fast. Between the 30s already gone on Cardinals side by friday 9am when we went in

 

[pinnacle]

I would concur with Nidan. Any seats between the 30's are almost gone on both sides. At 4:30 on Saturday I got seats on about the 35 yard line - on the visitors side. Same seats on Cardinals side were gone. I would assume by like tuesday or wednesday of this week - all seats between the 30 yard lines in the lower bowl will be gone. I think alot of people like me moved from loge to cheaper seats closer to the field. I had the old loge seats because you actually got a seat (vs. a bleacher) and it was easier to get drinks, use the bathrooms, etc. In addition - I did not want to sit in the blazing sun early in the season (most seats in the shade were sold out). With the new stadium - all the reasons I had loge seats have gone away - so the lower bowl..for less money..is fine with me. I would guess alot of people agree - hence the lower bowl is filling up fast. Also...as everyone knows..one of the end zones does not have seating - so those people also had to relocate.

On the other hand...there are alot of good club seats available..but they are $200 and $300 per ticket.

 

[Sandan]

Yes I have met BB a couple of times but I'm not sure I would have classified him as a jolly old soul.

He seemed rather shy to me

Arghhhh. I feel like I'm on the outside looking in. I guess there isn't anything I can really do.

All the points pinnacle made about the loge applies to me, as well.

I would have considered loge again, but damn.... that increase is just enormous. Until the product justifies the expense, I simply can't see myself forking over that much dough.

The dilemma I now face is do I really want season tickets on the 10-20 yard line? I guess I could be just as content buying single-game seats in a better location. I usually just give away one of the extra tickets to one of my buds, so I'm probably still ahead of the game if I go that route.

- Is it true if you buy "loge" seats, you also get Super Bowl tickets? I thought I heard that somewhere.

- I will definitely take a look at Sec. 128. Hopefully, something will be available nearby.
