Admin Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 It's that simple. If we want the kind of consideration we have been given in the future... we need to step it up. If you are sitting on the fence. Buy your tickets. If you have bought one or two, buy more and get people to go. You have six weeks to unload a couple of speculative tickets.

If you have connections to soccer organizations that would be willing to stand with the Voyageurs and put a small group together, PM the contact details.

Califax Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 I asked the same questions as dsqpr, do we have a status on our section and how full it is? I plan on buying them, but I wanna buy a bunch together. Still saving up at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the time of the last one, neither RPB or USector had bought their tickets yet. Hopefully tomorrows count will be much better. Edit - To Make a guess 112 Sold out 113 %25 114 %40 127 %40 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kodiakTFC Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 I had planned on buying tickets for this game but I didn't expect the prices to be so inflated and I also thought I'd have found a job by now. Depressing because I was there against Honduras in Montreal during the last WC run and now I can't make it down the street. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nolando Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 No offense to anyone but I would collect cans to see Canada in my own backyard. Can't foresee them playing Vancouver for years to come, but you never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toronto Ruffrider Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 Just out of interest: 1. How big is "our" section? (i.e. how many seats are reserved just for us?) 2. How many tickets have we bought so far? 3. How many tickets were we expecting we would buy? (Fewer than for the Jamaica WCQ, I'm assuming.) I don't suppose any of this will be of any value filling the section - it is just for interest's sake. I did a rough count. There are approximately 460 seats in our section, plus whatever figure is included in the accessible seating areas at the top and bottom of the section.

Good count. 112 is as good as sold as soon as RPB get rolling 113 has 519 seats about 400 remain. 114 has 460 seats. about 250 remain. 127 has 341 seats. about 200 remain.

How much longer will our hold on section 114 last? I'd imagine that sales in sections 113 and 114 will pick up when the RPBs start buying up 112. Section 112 is very small, and there's bound to be a lot of spillover into adjacent sections. By the way, my just received confirmation for my ticket order. I bought 10 tickets in 114.

mtroads Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 I just submitted an order and got most of them in row 9 and a couple in row 10 in 114. I'll probably have a couple extras. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it's not a disaster, and I think RPB will in the end need more tickets. There will be considerable interest in this game come later in August, but we won't be able to fill it and I am afraid that the sections will fill up with tourists.

Supporters sections such as 114 should be general admission, whereby group members congregate at the bottom of the section and work their way up. If tourists start buying seats in our section, we will hear a bunch of noobs complain to the usher that "these guys are in our seats." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted July 19, 2010 Author Share Posted July 19, 2010 What I mean to say above is that I think we can fill it, it will just be too late before people wake up and smell the tickets. And the tourists will be in before that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 You probably have a better chance of filling the section with legit supporters if you just release the username and password on here to everyone a week or so before we lose exclusive rights to the tickets. That way some lurkers may pick up tickets in our end Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That way some lurkers may pick up tickets in our end My credit card is maxed as it is. Those tickets are bought by me and redistributed. So doing it that way poses some problems. We also already have Peru problems to consider. One group was threatening to take over 127 and turn it into a Peru supporters section. Basically they say we can't do anything about it, and not selling them tickets is discriminatory ect... This is not going to happen, it's been stopped. But this problem could easily come back.

I'm pretty sure 127 is NEE's turf. I doubt they'll let that happen. And the Peru supporters can &(*^!&*@^~!!! themselves. We should have designated away areas and keep them there.

Toronto Ruffrider Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 There are designated Peru supporters sections. Any idea how many Peruvian supporters will be attending this game? Btw, I received my 10 tickets in the mail today. I've got section 114, row 13, seats 21-30. I assume that ticket sales in our section are pretty random because there's no way that only 7 rows remain in our section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should have designated away areas and keep them there. I echo your censored expletive. I get really sick of reading these arguments about discrimination, human rights, blah, blah, blah. At the end of the day, we're talking about a soccer game. Like Canadian supporters, I'm sure the majority of Peruvian supporters would rather stand together. The supporters who are trying to infiltrate section 127 are obviously **** disturbers who are just looking to cause trouble; they shouldn't be allowed into the stadium in the first place.

Sébastien Posted July 22, 2010 Share Posted July 22, 2010 I have 5 tickets that should be bought by the end of the day. Just waiting for two people to give a final yes. I also have a cousin in Toronto. Will try to get her and her bf to go. Really cheap tickets, so why not! They would love section 127 I'm sure. Finally, I will try to send a mass email at work for all the Torontonians who will surely be there on a long weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
