Say what? Argos Ticket Sales Currently at 15K

[Argo57]

I was told that the Argonauts have been processing about 110 accounts/day which translates to about 350 seats/day.

Couldn't get section 226 where I wanted so ended up in 204. Stopped by the office last Friday... they were really busy... cheerleaders at the door... hope they find a place or Room for our band and our cheer leaders or look after them somehow at BMO ... Think we have to be patient with the staff as they are real busy... Really looking forward to the season.... GO ARRRRGOS!!!

If that is true, they are way below the 15,000 figure that's been thrown around. 350/day translates to 2,100 seats sold so far.

Which would be disappointing. But, there are so many #'s in this thread that who the heck knows?

[Mightygoose]

Agreed. Very few know the real numbers or even if processed means sold.

But reading the various sales related threads, more people are not getting their first choice for seats so to me that shows they're selling well

Well we already heard that they had doubled last years season ticket numbers as of a few days ago. It was rumoured that they only had 3000 - 5000 season ticket holders last season. So that would be 6000 - 10,000 sold.

it would be 800 seats a day if they are in 8000 range, and would have gotten through 4000 renewals by today. They are scheduled to start on depositors tomorrow. They might be way behind based on workload. sounds like a massive project.

Presale starts on 22nd (which means they start selling to leafs, raptors, etc season tix holders)
Public sales start at month end.

Sound about right to me, I'm picking on Tuesday and was told in total there would be 3500-4000 actual seats sold by the time I pick.

Curious, who told you that? Was it another rep?

[CdnMarathonGirl]

I was told that there are only 3 club seats left. I wanted 2 and they have a policy of not leaving a single seat, so couldn't get them. Next choice was front rows in 223. The first three rows will be blocked off for cameras, so I chose not to go there. Got my third choice of dead centre in section 107. Rep says lots of seasons ticket sold for that section.

[RB957]

Likewise

based days they have been add it, they will be thru 60% of renewals + desposits. So they are probably at 6500-7000 before they start presales

[argotom]

All I know is what the guy told me and on top of which my section was nearly sold out when I picked last week.

[Argo57]

Don't want to reveal that but what he was telling me made perfect sense.
I suspect the 15k number at this point is a stretch, the team is not starting their marketing campaign until new deposits are processed.

No worries and understood. I pick on Tuesday in the 9 to 11 window so just trying to gague what's gone.

Situationaly, I'm l eyeing sections 124, 125 or 122. If anyone knows if either of these are sold out already, it will make my decision a much easier one

Good luck, I hope you get the seats that you want, pretty sure everyone will be pleased.

124

[Kenners]

I get to pick Wednesday morning, pretty stoked. First time with any season tickets.

[Argo57]

Shame the Argos didn't update the seating plan daily to show the seats that have been purchased and subsequently still available.

[1argoholic]

It's going to obviously take a while for the organization as a WHOLE to get it's shit together from top to bottom. Barker and some ticket reps seem to be working hard but there are gaps. As I've mentioned the Argo site is lacking big time. NO marketing yet. I know...I know no one else cares except Rocket and myself.
