Flyers Season Ticket Holders and NHL Entry Draft

[Hollywood Cannon]

What the hell is the Orange and Black pack?

 

[Colin226]

Got 4 tickets to Day 1 and a pair to Day 2.. I was the only one of 3 people in my group to get through and had to submit Day 1 requests several times before it worked

Looks like back to back drafts for me, having gone last year.. See ya'll at the pre-event festivities

If anyone grabbed two spare tix for the first round, I would appreciate it very much.

Just PM me here, had a work meeting til 1:30 and not having any luck now...thanks in advance

 

[King Forsberg]

Id be interested in 2-4 day 1 tickets if anyone is selling/giving them out. Just PM if anyone has extras.

 

[SuchySays]

Row 35? the hell?

yeah i have no idea. the section isn't a normal 203-204...etc etc section either.

An independent Flyers news site. A good buddy of mine is part of it and none of their crew could get tickets, so I'm helping them out.

I THINK I got 2 tickets for the Upper Level for Rounds 2-7... awaiting confirmation like I got last week for my Round 1 Lower Levels, but I haven't received one yet... I was able to select two tickets but at checkout I get stalled... went back to Cart and got message saying I would get confirmation email IIRC a get my tickets after 2/6/14... I'd feel more comfortable with a confirmation email.

Seems Upper Level is General admission even though I got a section number and a very high row number... with normal seat numbers... so, I'm a little confused since it is not like my Round 1 which I'm certain are assigned seats. So, I'm guessing Level One is assigned and Mezzanine is GA... I'm fine with that I guess.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Lower level is reserved and the Mez is GA

My guess is that people who are asking for six tickets are hitting a roadblock as it tries to get six together... or at best across aisles or behind/in-front, if you checked off that option... Getting two at a time probably works much better.

 

[Sawdalite]

Has anyone here who got tickets received a conformation email at this point? ... Maybe I'm waiting on something that isn't coming.

I got an email shortly after "buying" that I will be receiving them via email next week.

My wife tried to get 4 tickets but it wouldn't go through. The Flyers' site says tickets will be released to the public tomorrow at 1, so I guess I'll try again for just 2 tickets.

Thanks... I guess I'm screwed then and my transaction didn't complete... Still got nada.

I thought they said Friday... If that was to the 'public', then what was this? I guess this was for people who requested the Flyers to be notified. I swear, at times they are the most confusing group of people I have ever dealt with.

I imagine it was for Flyers fans who have purchased game tickets in the past.

I think this was for people on their mailing list, like if you ever owned a partial season ticket plan or something...so pretty much the public, but I'm assuming there was a limited amount. I'm guessing tomorrow will be the remainder of available tickets.

 

[Sawdalite]

For anyone else who hasn't received a confirmation email, FWIW... Just got off the phone with the Comcast Center Ticket people... lady said that it can take as long as a full day to receive a confirmation email due to high volume... but some people can get one immediately... if I don't get an email by tomorrow to call back.

 

[budscweizer16]

I gave up after 40 mins in the queue for day 1 tiks and then figured id try once or twice for day 2, i got 6. not sure i even want these, but my group of friends are big fans, so ill prob definitely go, ideally id like to swap them for 1st day tiks, but if i cant. 2-7 may not actually be that bad. So email me if u have any 1st dayers. [email protected]

Yes, got it immediately after completing the transaction. The italicized info below has been altered to protect the innocent:

I got the email to get in on the "presale" ,I think since I had a 10 game plan a few years back. Tried logging on at 1:01, was in cue for 30 minutes than had to leave to take a conference call. So if I understand right, all the "presale" tickets are gone but there will be another open to the public "lottery" at 1 tomorrow, so that's my only shot to get a ticket now. But they let people who managed to get on today to get up to 6 (free) tickets?! Logistics-wise I don't get it. I've never been to a draft so maybe there are plenty of tickets to go around, but if its limited and all these people who got 6 free tickets end up putting their extras on stubhub or something this was not a well-executed plan.

No offense, but how the **** did you get that email?

None taken at all man I was actually happy last year when the Devils basically only gave tickets to our STH because it was like 90% Devils fans (and kept Rangers fans out), so I know what you mean.. But my girlfriend is a diehard Flyers fan so I can assure you I'll be at Day 1 with three other Flyers fans

I went on the Flyers' website about 2-3 weeks ago and saw they had a form you could fill out to be notified about tickets for the draft. Filled it out and thought nothing of it (almost bought tix off eBay yesterday tbh) until I saw it come through today.

I'm actually in New Orleans today so at 12:24pm I realized it was after 1pm on the east coast and I had missed the start.. All 3 of us in my group pulled out our phones and about 5 minutes into the queue I got through.. No one else did for another 15 minutes while I basically proceeded to get through 3 times and made 3 orders.. Maybe being on a phone helped?

You didn't have to be previous ticket owners to get the email. They had sign ups for the 'pre-sale' on their web site.

 

[Sawdalite]

Okay... Good news for me... and good news for anyone who still wants ticket for Rounds 2-7.

I never did receive the email confirmation from yesterday's 'purchase'... Called Comcast Tix back and the guy looked on my account for me and only found the tickets for the First Round I got last week... and said that he was not allowed to sell me tickets for that event over the phone... and that they were available starting at 1:00 from the Flyers Website. ... I went there and a few times was informed no tickets were available 'at that time'... I kept trying and was able to get them eventually... They were Mezzanine General Admission but did have a NHLGA5 Section Number and did have a Row Number and Seat Numbers, so maybe there are areas that I am allowed in even though General Admission seats... In which case I'm a bit pissed that I may have got a lesser quality location due to their Computer Program that I was not able to work correctly yesterday.

The good news for me is that I got in the Arena for the Subsequent Rounds... and that there are still tickets for those who were shut out yesterday during the Advance Sale... if they are persistent and keep trying when told there are no tickets available.

 

[Dynamo Washington]

It looks like I'm plum out of luck since I couldn't make it right on at 1:00 yesterday. If anyone does have 2 extras to the first round please do let me know!
