I need tickets to the baseball World Series!

[SBR_John]

I see some for $1200 each but how do you know you won't get ripped off? I want to take my son so I need 2. That's a lot of money. Does anyone have Railbird's email?

[bigboydan]

see if illusion will sell you his tickets john.

[SBR_John]

Oh I should make it clear I want to see a game in Houston.

[tacomax]

Come on, you're SBR John. Surely you'd be able to hustle a few tickets.

Maybe you could make a deal with Illusion. I think he's more excited about those Prick shirts than he is about the World Series.

i figured as much john but, i wanted to see what Illusion would say about that. because, he told me last night on the phone he wouldn't sell his tickets for a million dollars

[SBR_John]

Tacomax you are 100% right!!!

Come on world... I'm crying out to the world out there. GET ME SOME WORLD SERIES TICKETS!!

I have worked hard in this business, never missed a day at work(unless you count that 2 weeks I was kidnapped in Manila). Now come on! Someone is bound to owe me?!

[tacomax]

Give Tej a call - tell him that a few WS tickets would get them a A- rating.

And then stiff him.

Try stubhub.com John. They are very safe.

[raiders72001]

I've used stubhub before.

Illusion you pick up your stubhub tickets at that little Pizza joint?


I tried to get WSox tickets. They went on sale at 12 noon. I was calling on two phones and trying over the computer.

Finally I get on over the computer. It says my wait is 15 minutes then 14 all the way down until I get in.

I asked for the max of 4 tickets. I get a note that says sorry we cannot find 4 tickets together. I think if I had asked for 2 I would have gotten them.

I don't have John's money so I'm not going to pay the ticket brokers.

My friend bought a season ticket package and offered me two tickets to game one for face value. (and I have to pay for all of the beer)

I also tried the other day getting tickets. We had five phones going along with three computers. I got the same messages as you. You enter that stupid word then get a hold screen. I tried for one hour with no luck. I'm just lucky I have great friends.

sweet deal - I've never been to a World Series game.

[Illusion]

The only playoff games I have been to in any sport were the '97 eastern conference finals and game four of the finals in '98 (Bulls 96-54 record setting win against Utah)

[bigboydan]

any luck yet on finding tickets john ?

[SBR_John]

No luck yet although I did scoop some sweet 40 yrd line Longhorn tickets which I either got scammed on or will hit my door via fedx in about 2 hours.

Since Houston is about 4 hours from me I think me and my boy will just hop in the 1999 LeSabre and get there early and hold up 2 fingers and try to buy some from the scalpers. I'm thinking that could be some fun.

[bigboydan]

john, i thought you were going to trade in your 1999 LeSabre on a 1976 pink gremlin with a green racing stripe. let me guess, JJ bought the car right under your nose.

[SBR_John]

I think JJ has a van. Ya know, I'm fine with my Olds. I know russ has a lamorghini that tej bought him and Rx marty has a mercedes and I think the shrink has a hummer. Everyone else at SBR has some kind of truck and I'm talking about the huge dbl cab 4x4's. I'm not kidding either. The 3 SBR managers drive big black trucks, me and Bill have regular cars.
