LA Galaxy Ticket Update

Probably academic anyway - the Mrs seems to want to see Beckham - doesn't matter how he plays really just that he sorts his hair out before the match. At least I'll get to see what the ground looiks like from some obscure part of the stadium unless it gets sold out before I get there. We can only live in hope.

FEVERZONE for the galaxy game!!!!! soo stoked! however i cudnt get anywhere close for the friday game, eded up in aisle 30 as they were the closest left. Looks like it's going to be a sellout! Be interesting to see if theres any PR about how many tickets sold this morning? leecoker2007-10-11 09:23:03

How come on Tuesday in the Visa pre-sale I got "best available" gold seats in aisle 9, row Z (!), whereas today I checked to see what I could have got in the public sale and could get seats in aisle 9 row MM (almost exactly the same seat numbers).  Now unless I've got this round the wrong way "MM" is almost the very front seating while row Z is the very back.  Sure if it's raining I've got the better seats, and perhaps it offers opportunities for hurling cups of coffee on people down the front, but surely row MM is much better seating?  Ticketek - a special company.

woohoo got my tickets lol different lady today at ticketek haha she had no clue spent the whole time on the phone. the poor dude in front of me(think he might be on here) ASKED FOR ADELAIDE TICKETS SHE SAID YEP BUT THEN REALISED WHILST DOING MINE SHE DIDN'T GIVE HIM ANY LOL I later saw him walking back past so was lucky enough to grab him so he could get them. Thats my good deed for the day. anyway got all my 13 tickets for both games she put it through in on go and didnt mention anything about an 8 per person limit? So sittinng towards the front in aisle 21 JJ and yeah the machine does a random pick supposedly foer the adelaide game even though we said same seats. so we are over the other side in aisle 1 but hey we can aleays move.

Aisle 1 will be interesting if any Adelaide fans are visiting.



Says the man who spends every game in the warmth of the press box ?

Same thing for me - got aisle 13 when getting eight seats, but could have got aisle 21 today...

or 2

Do you think we could extend the feverzone for this match, because it'll suck in aisle 14 away from all the noise. I might just go over and stand in the aisle between the seats if the worst comes to the worst. Then again I'll probably get removed by an overzealous security guard who thinks I'm blocking off the way out in the case of a fire.

Whats the latest ticket number?

yeah how many sold now?

hmmm yea anyone know?

lmao - nice post Cantona4eva

Great post Cantona ,

me and a couple of mates bought tickets for adelaide yesterday we are in aisle 1 row c,bit far away from fever zone hopefully crowd over in aisle 1 will get into it,we will try to get them going,hope they want to stand hate the idea of sitting and everytime you stand up the people behind moan your blocking there wiew

The Fever Zone will be as big as the crowd will make it. We need to push for the full crowd to wear as much yellow as their heads will let them.

Well ill be wearing retro ricky with scarf and watever else i can find, and trying to make some noise! hopeflly my aisle helps out

good point i reckon, given that quite a few of us will be spread out away from YF zone, we might be able to getting those round us to join in with chants all over the ground!!

well there is a group of us sitting together and you can be sure that we will be chanting and yelling real loud!!

fixed your post

Brilliant, I switched tickets with my sister and her husband and now I'm in aisle 20 and they are in aisle 14. Right beside the feverzone, can't wait for the game!

Managed to score a couple of freebies for the game from some clients at work, the wife is happy now as she wants to watch the knuckle dragger, me i just wanna see the Phoenix kick some Galaxy butt!!

Herald this morning has Tony P saying 23,000 sold to the Galaxy game, with 7,000 opting in for the Adelaide game as well. 30,000 needed to break even.

If those numbers are correct you have to ask why 16,000 wouldn't opt in for the Adelaide game.  Even if you didn't want to go surely you would take the ticket and either give it to a friend or try and hawk it off to someone.  Strange.

There is every chance that some Galaxy buyers weren't asked by Ticketek if they wanted the Adelaide tickets. And for those who didn't know to ask, they weren't allocated to . Depends on who at Ticketek you got, some of them were clued up, others had no idea.

Indeed.  Many galaxy tickets state 'Both' on them as well and I have run in to people that assumed that meant the ticket covered both games.

If you don't have two seperate tickets you only have the Galaxy game.

Thats interesting to know
I got tickets for friends and I told the guy we wanted tickets to both and as you have said the tickets have "BOTH" on them but i'm 99% sure he only printed out 1 ticket each!


Why does it have "BOTH" on it then??

I will be getting that sorted today

Still waiting for my tickets so I'll be sure to watch for this.  The website made it pretty easy to only get tickets for the Galaxy game, as the option to get Adelaide tickets included only kicked in as the fourth to sixth options.  Maybe a sneaky way to boost revenue for the Phoenix - sell Beckham tickets at $100 and an Adelaide ticket at $32 on top of that.  (Yes, prawn-zone prices, where else is there to sit?)

Hey Mum,
