Pax 15166 purchased 10 min ago. [/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=welly_phoenix]4 tickets purchased 5 minutes ago. PAX 15262.

Needless stat: approx 100 tix in approx 20 mins
Even if Ticketek is only open 8 hours a day that works out to sold out in 7 days from now*

*Excludes net sales and of course blatantly assumes a constant rate of sale

though around 10k sold just today so better than 300 per hour.....lunchtime saw a big spike...around 2-3000....suspect will go close to (if not actually) sell out well in advance of the 7.9 days....

Excellent coverage, hopefully it will spur casual fans into action. A lot of people at work that didn't attend the first game are going to this next one, its gonna be massive.

Pax 15829-15845 from nix store, just now. Decent looking queue, had to wait about 15 mins.

Looked like someone trying to sell trade-aid stuff to the store - come back in a few days would be a useful suggestion...!

Reckon there'll be a mad rush between 5pm-7pm. Either people leaving work or people purchasing online when getting home from work.

I probably just stated the obvious. >_<

Think you might mean "wow"? or "woah", though we don't want to stop the runaway train on this one of course.....but certainly not "woe".

I'm not particularly convinced that we'll sell out. We got 24k last night for a playoff game, I'm not convinced we'll get an extra 10k for another playoff game. On the plus side though, the two week gap and extra media exposure should help.

What the hell would I know though!

Fair enough, I thought we'd get a good crowd though was fairly certain it wouldn't match the Perth game. I thought everyone assuming Gold Coast would win would have exhausted the out-of-towners and fair weather supporters by having them go to that as a one off.

Wrong.

I guess the really interesting thing will be to see how it will affect the league game attendances next season? What, if any, growth will there be in base fan numbers?

I think there might be more hype for this game.

We have a group of five coming up from Dunners for the weekend where as last week we were comfortable to watch on TV.

Most of us are not fair weather supporters, just travel impaired.

Ditto Dino... (no pun intended).. like you I have been a fan since 2007 but I only just moved to Wgn from Chch 2 months ago. There are lots of staunch fans throughout NZ who can only make the odd journey now and again. But they will all travel for the Semi-finals!
