Admin Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 Attention! Ticket sales for Canada vs Mexico will go offline tomorrow at noon. I need to assess who we have sold tickets to and possibly remove public sales. Tickets in the stadium are reportedly selling extremely fast. We may circle the wagons and sell only through the Vancouver supporters groups, to previous members of The Voyageurs and anyone who has bought tickets in the past. Our job is to provide a vibrant, energetic and loud supporters section for the full 90 minutes. Going re asses our sales and distribution strategy to ensure this is the case.

ESG Shawn Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 @admin Jamie - just replied to your email regarding this topic. Let me know if I can help. Shawn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted December 9, 2015 Author Share Posted December 9, 2015 This all happening for good reasons I think, not bad. I just want to make sure that we get the tickets to people we know will help create the supporters section. We are a bunch of lazy bastards and do things at the last minute. Can't this time and need to take a time out and kick some butts into gear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

morbital Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 I'm in for 5 but totally agree, Mexican fans are organized, they will try to take over the stadium. I hope the CSA is strict with away support otherwise game day could be a very bad experience. Even with Honduras they were scattered all over the park, granted most moved in the 2nd half to the designated section. I fear this voluntary approach will not work at all with Mexico and we and the CSA must be a bit more proactive in getting the message across that only Canadian fans can sit in the rest of the stadium. Mexican fans should be turned away at the doors or relocated immediately if they do not have tickets to the designated away support section.

Admin Posted December 9, 2015 Author Share Posted December 9, 2015 The CSA is definitely making good moves towards creating a pro Canadian crowd If someone is getting on a plane to get here from another country, there is little you are going to be able to do to stop them from getting a ticket. Realistically you can't tell someone they can't sit in a certain section, not in Canada, and that is a good thing. I hope what they did worked. It's hard to tell who bought all those tickets. I suspect it might be Canadians because the Mexico supporters section was not sold. This isn't about Mexicans buying our tickets. It's more about anyone buying our tickets simply because they are cheap rather than wanting to be part of the supporters section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamboAl Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 And I think some people have bought tickets who are on the fence due to finances and/or schedules around Easter (me included). If I cannot attend, I will offer my two up to a Voyageur and a Voyageur only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harrymonkey Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 gotcha any idea where the pregame festivities will be and can we buy shirts there or better to do online Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Just bought 10! Hopefully it will be 5 from Calgary, drive up to Kelowna.. Meet up with 5 of our buds there, then truck along. I am the only 'official' V. But I assure you we will be louder than all of Mexico. Bunch of proud, sport loving, obnoxious Canadian hosers! What would the numbers be like in the V's section if it sold out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, I don't use the built in e-commerce for tickets, cause it's thousands. It would be wicked slow to use, it's built for shipping shirts. Tickets won't appear there, but I am looking to change that in the future. Instead I use Pay Pal directly and work from a downloaded log file.
