Wrestlemania 29 TPWW meet and greet

[Jordan]

So it's a big year here in the Tri-State area, who is going to Wrestlemania this year? Anybody coming to NYC for the week?

If so it could be fun to have a group meet up to go to some of the festivities, I live in NYC so we could pregame before traveling to any of the indy shows or the big one its self.

Roll up on these shows with a crew of rasslin know it all's could be a great time.

[Evil Vito]

I'll more than likely be tailgating in the parking lot, much like I would for a Giants game.

I shudder to imagine how bad the traffic will end up being. It's awful for Giants games as is, an presumably WM will have even more people due to floor seating.

[Droford]

I would really like to go..but I don't know yet

[screech]

Hoping to go. Would enjoy a meetup

[Schlomey]

Hoping to go but not officially planning on it just yet. Will update status as things develop.

[Corporate CockSnogger]

Anybody planning to meet up with Jordan X should make sure that they keep any females they may be travelling with at a safe distance.

[Corporate CockSnogger]

That almost makes it sound like he's a ladies man who would steal all your girlfriends/wives/sisters/mothers.

He's not. He punches girls. In the face.

[screech]

Good tip

[James Steele]

I really hope WrestleMania 30 is in Cowboys Stadium.

[Jordan]

I hope it's at MSG so I can walk there

[James Steele]

You can walk to Dallas.

[Jordan]

I was a Junior High Athlete, your right I can walk to Dallas.

[DAMN iNATOR]

Really hope Hurricane Sandy doesn’t come anywhere close to NJ/NY or anywhere in the US...hope it defies all the forecasts and just drifts harmlessly out to sea, though I doubt it.

Wonder what WWE would do in the very slim chance that Sandy does hit there though and does (God forbid) widespread and massive damage to that whole immediate area? Obviously, would be horrible about the loss of human lives and possible massive destruction, but would they be able to book a different arena to locate WM XXIX at this point? We are at about only 5 months to go after all.

[Gertner]

Wrestlemania is over half a year away

[DAMN iNATOR]

Wrestlemania is over half a year away

No. It is 5 months and 10 days (or 169 days). Either way you slice it, that is less than half a year, last I checked. :o Not trying to be a smart-ass, that’s just facts, jack.

[James Steele]

Still, with the spectacle and everything has become the host city has to do a lot of planning and everything itself alongside with all the things WWE has to do to prep for that massive of a show and the events all that week.

[Mike the Metal Ed]

Hoping to make this and will be getting a ticket, but I'd still need to get ahold of travel and accommodation money.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Maybe. If I can find cheap seats and then just drive down.

[Droford]

Pre sale code is izodmvp for tix on sale Thursday at 10am vs general on sale Saturday at 10 am. I'm planning on a ticket in the 3-400 range which I'd assume is somewhere on the field at least since the only other price levels are 650, 850 for rows 5-12 and 2,000 for front 4 rows. Tix go 35, 50, 75, 100, 150, 175, 200, 300, 400, 650,850,2000

[Droford]

That's the met life seating chart, but last years with the prices should help figure out prices ahead of to,time..I want to sit closet to the stage so if those back parts of sec 1-4 fall in the red area of last years that's probably where I'll be

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Any Jets/Giants fans know of where not to sit for any obstructed views?

[Droford]

fucking ticketmaster, my wait time has been 8 minutes for 10 plus

[Droford]

first offer on the floor was section 109 row b

which is ridiculous for over 350, probably should have gotten it, now im waiting 9 more minutes lol

[Providence Peep]

I'm trying to decide if I want a club seat. I know it's far away from the ring, but there are benefits to sitting in those sections.

Are they really that much higher than the 120's?

[Droford]

216 for $240, im thinking this isnt gonna happen

[Droford]

biting the bullet on a $450 floor ticket.. section 3 row V (lol) but that is by the stage..ugh

[Innovator]

fuck those are expensive

[Droford]

the wait time is down, however the good seats are gone

[Droford]

111c (blue concourse) opposite camera for $450

[Providence Peep]

the wait time is down, however the good seats are gone

Just passed up on section 118.

[Droford]

i hate having to reenter the stupid code each time

[Xero]

Passed up good second concourse tickets for $170 to see if I could get better seats. Now it seems I can't get anything (need 3) below like $500 per. FML. Looks like I may need to resort to Stub Hub or something.

[Innovator]

I'm gonna wait until closer and use scorebig.com

[Xero]

Actually found a few in 118 for $200/per. Good view of everything, pretty much where I wanted to sit (either endzone or opposite hard camera side).

[Droford]

http://aviewfrommyseat.com/venue/MetLife+Stadium/?show=sections

i imagine the ring will be om yje nfl logo

[Xero]

Yeah, pretty much. Just hoping they don't have some ridiculous pole gimmick like they had a few years ago for the tron, otherwise I'm fucked, lol.

Yeah I got a couple of chances to get similar seats. Think they're good ones?

[Droford]

last years palm trees lol, tried to avoid the corners

[Xero]

http://aviewfrommyseat.com/photos/frank-20120818170930.jpg

Pretty much my exact seats. Pretty awesome.

[Providence Peep]

http://aviewfrommyseat.com/photos/frank-20120818170930.jpg

AWESOME. How much did you pay?

[Xero]

$200 per seat.

[Providence Peep]

$200 per seat.

Congrats! Fantastic seats! Thanks for the info.

[Providence Peep]

Just wanna remind everyone that if you go to Ticketmaster and hit "search again" too many times, you'll be locked out of the website. Just happened to me, without getting any tickets. FUCK!!!!!!!!

[Droford]

118 row 10 seat 3

[Razzamajazz]

[Droford]

[Droford]

now for the fun part, a hotel room

[Innovator]

now for the fun part, a hotel room

look for places on 17, like the doubletree.

I just got two tix in section 118, row 29 for $200 each.
Droford: Thanks for posting that pic! It helped me a lot!

[Providence Peep]

118 row 10 seat 3

The three of us are in the same section! :lol:

[Droford]

look for places on 17, like the doubletree.

I found a hotel in the newark area on hotwire, 2 stars so its likely a howard johnson (they dont say this, but theres a website that lists hotels people have gotten), 2 nights (sat/sun) for $57 a night. I know the general area and its relatively close for $57 and Im not a hotel snob when it comes to trips like this..

I honestly dont necessarily need a hotel for saturday but no way Im making a 5 hour trip to and from so I might as well. Havent booked it yet, gonna try priceline and a few others..

Priceline likely has the Extended Stay America for $60 in the Rutherford area as an express deal (again, hotel not named but its a lowly 1 star and thats the 1 star listed on my site for rutherford)..750 Edwin L. Ward Hwy,
link to hotels website, will not be $60 there thouhh (http://www.extendedstayamerica.com/hotels/meadowlands-rutherford.html)

[Xero]

so I guess I get to meet Xero, hes in my section lol

118 row 10 seat 3

Same row too, lol. Seats 8 9 and 10.

[Droford]

maybe someone can scooch down to my seat from 7 and we can take TPWW letters lol..or the last w will just be hanging off a little haha

[Droford]

anyone going to any of the other shows in the area..I know theres a bazillion of em..even TNA lol

[Providence Peep]

Droford, were you happy with the seats you got for that concert? I hope I'm able to see what's happening in the ring and won't have to rely on the big screens. lol

[Droford]

that was a pic from the website I posted with pics from seats.

I was considering lugging a pair of binoculars myself just in case. The only major issue could be the support beams for the setup over the ring..I really dont know, but I think these were the best value tix I saw since $400 was putting me in the corner closest to the stage with the exact same angled view..i knew I didnt want to go higher up either..

[Droford]

FYI I got the Howard Johnson on Route 3, 4.6 miles from Met Life Stadium on sat/sun for $55 on priceline via name your own price, $105 total cheaper than booking directly with them. Its in the "rutherford" area. If I decide to come up any earlier for anything else I'll get a different one.

Yeah that Extended Stay is close to 3, which goes to the Stadium. 17 connects to 3, and you might be able to get away from the price gauging if you look around there.

Stubhub says tix in sec 118 are going for $270-370 and up to $599..I wouldn't count on getting cheap tix on sites like stubhub

Droford, I called that Extended Stay America on Edwin L. Ward Hwy for a room. With the AAA Auto Club discount, my cousin and I got it for $70 each. Is that where you're staying, too? The guy I talked to said it's a 5 minute drive to the sadium (without traffic).

[Droford]

I'm at the Howard Johnson a couple more minutes away. The people running these hotels can't be aware that wrestlemania an 80,000 people are coming that weekend..

[Heyman]

If I end up making the move to Toronto, then there's a small chance that ill try and find tickets to come to NYC to watch.

Not very likely but I haven't ruled anything out yet.

[Droford]

Bumping the thread..totally forgot xero is in the same row as me. The tpww letters signs would be funny but it'd be more like TPW.....W..ugh

Added info..met life stadium allows food in plastic bags of a certain size and sealed 20 oz soda water bottles to be brought in. Parking is $30..I'm probably going to be an idiot and pay to park. Gates open at 4:30

[Innovator]

Paying for parking at the Meadowlands is worth it, trust me

[Droford]

My hotel is too close to try to save money by driving out of the way for mass transit..if I was further away I'd do that. Wish I could walk from my hotel since its only 5 miles but apparently its not possible.
