Tickets for Montreal - Do you want?

[Mulder]

If the Argos don't get back to us about a section soonish
I'm going to start an order. Who wants to sit with other Argofans?

Are you in? and For How many?

Thanks

Mulder

I'm still not feeling well enough at this point to commit to MTL. Priority is to get better for festival next week.

Not sure if I want to take the midnight bus on the Sun and then the midnight back on the Mon. That's the only way I'm going so its still 50/50.

Per the Argos (just got off the phone) they are organizing a section so I'm waiting for that to come through.

[Mulder]

Just for clarification, I'm only ordering tickets if the Argos don't get back to me about a double blue section in Montreal. There were working on it as of yesterday.

Thanks!

I'll keep this thread open for now. So we can see how many people are going! Any place near the Big o where us Argofans should take over pre-game?

[mchesher03]

Thanks to Mike Hogan for tweeting that # and zero thanks to the Argos front office (i'll prob get the ticket email on friday afternoon)

Just got this from my rep.
I can take the orders personally if you need to refer any STH.
We can give you the lowest group rate. In sections 222 and 224, this would be $52.33 per ticket.
Other lower bowl tickets are scarce, but other group rates are available in level 400 too. The prices are here:

Thanks to Mike Hogan for tweeting that # and zero thanks to the Argos front office (i'll prob get the ticket email on friday afternoon)The Argo FO really dropped the ball on this. I get an e-mail Monday morning that things will be worked out by the evening most likely and then zero communication after that. Then I called the number Mike Hogan provided only to be told by the guy on the other end that he doesn't know all the details as to what is going on and that he will call me back. To his credit he did call me back with in 20 minutes. Honestly this feels like amateur hour. Say what you will about MLSE but they would have had plans in place before the game was won just in case. How hard is it to coordinate blocking off a section for away fans in a stadium that size?

[matthew]

Why not then call the Als direct at the number I posted? I always get it from the source!!

[stuntdog]

For those who bought tickets from the Als office... did they email the tix or do you have to pick them up from the Will Call window @ the Big O?

If you have to pick them up at the Stadium then get there early to pick them up. They weren't particularly well organized at the stadium back in 2010 and there was a massive lineup at the will call window.

We missed the first 10 minutes of the game because of the delay.

[Mulder]

The Alouettes have reserved a couple of sections for Argonauts season ticket holders and you can get access by calling their Director of Ticket Sales at 514-787-2516. Her name is Andrea and she has promised the group price of $52.33 per ticket.



Stuntdog, I know we are picking up ours at WillCall, we plan to arrive really early. Do you know what time Will Call opens at?

[T-Bone]

Do you know what time Will Call opens at?
I was told two hours prior to game time. So, 11:00am in this case.

[ArgoGabe22]

Still dissapointed with the lack of info from the Argos. They say to get on board with a video but doesn't have any info on how.

SPECIAL ARGONAUTS SECTION BLOCKED OFF FOR THIS SUNDAY'S GAME. All orders must be directed to the Montreal Alouettes' office and ensure you reference that you would like to sit with the Argonauts section. There is a special group rate being offered and you can purchase directly by emailing TicketOffice@MontrealAlouettes.com.
