Say what? Argos Ticket Sales Currently at 15K

Just got off the phone after getting my four seats for next year (S. 221). I asked the rep about the rumoured 15,000 figure for seats sold, he said that was incorrect. I asked him if that figure might be a combination of seats sold and deposits, he said he could not comment. So, take that for what it is. But it was a pretty good process, and he gave me a number of options in the general area where I was looking. He also said that the sections I was looking at, behind the visitors bench, had much more available seating than behind the Argos bench, which makes sense.

Appreciate the update and the could not comment says allot to me. Sales seem to be going well and with the process of going from deposits to firm sales, it's just too fluid to give any numbers at this time.

I'm also wondering if a gag order has or is being put in on this matter. Looking forward to when I pick next week!

As did I.

But you deleted that part of my post when you quoted me.

Guilty as charged. Sorry about that.

No problem, was just a little confused.

Quick question -- who has been contacting you to secure your season seats? It seems that my ticket rep from last year is still with the Argos (I was able to leave him a voicemail yesterday) but that isn't who called me? Has anybody else experienced this?

I am yet to pick my tickets, but my parents say they were contacted by someone entirely new.

Rob Richardson was my rep last year, and he contacted me via email the day before my window. But it was a gentleman by the name of Anthony that actually contacted me during my scheduled window (actually 2 hours earlier).

Someone named Paul phone me a half hour before my window time on Friday.

Rob got a promotion I believe; good for him. Was always great with me.

Good for him as well as he became a dad this past year.

My ticket rep last year was Rob as well. I finally connected with the rep that called me today and he confirmed that Rob will remain my ticket rep this season. Due to the high volume of ticket sales rolling out at this time, the phone call duties are being shared amongst several reps to ensure that everybody is able to secure their seats during their allotted times.

Also, an FYI for this season....the option to exchange tickets for games that you can't attend for other games is no longer there. The thinking behind this decision per the ticket rep I talked to today is that there will be a high demand for after-market tickets (which I took to mean that they are still anticipating high season ticket sales and game sell outs).

Rob was also my rep last year, I guess there were only a few maybe him only.
A good guy, glad to see he will be back.

Well I imagine that the online seating chart should be up on ticketmaster.ca shortly after the schedule comes out so that should give us some general idea of what's available and what's been sold.

That wouldn't happen until single game tickets go on sale I think.

Isn't that March 1st?

[Mightygoose]

I was under the impression March 1 was the general sale on season tickets and likely mini and flex packs too. Tomorrow seat selection begins for new accounts.

the organization has dedicated four business days for new accounts processing. They would have known how many new deposits they had to process, and to basically devote as much time for this as for renewals is probably a good sign. What do they mean by the late February "pre-sale"? Is this corporate tickets?

I knew 15K at this point was too good to be true. I'm glad I saved my fist-pumping and maniacal laughter until after I finished reading the thread because 15k that quick would have been huge.

[LLB997]

does anyone know If the team Is going to be doing any sort of flex pack or 3 or 4 game packs this season? If so , when would they begin that? after the season starts?

thanks
