I'm near Providence, Rhode Island, and RAW's coming here at the end of February. Tickets went on sale this morning, and I got to the box office at about 4:30 (as some people here suggested). There were already about 30 people in front of me! A couple of them "camped out" last night, which some of you laughed at me for when I asked you if I should do that. Others were there since 10 o'clock last night. And the very first people at the front of the line were there since 4:30 on Friday morning!!!
Anyway, when I finally got inside, I had a choice - floor seats, but 17 rows back, or section 121 (which is just off the floor), 7 rows back. I chose the latter. I have section 121, Row GG.
My point is, people were camping out! I posted a thread here, asking for advice about tickets, and when I asked if I should camp out a couple of you poked fun at me. Well, thanks for nothing. :y:

When I asked you people if I should camp out overnight, you people laughed at me and made fun of me. When you told me to get over there, you were being sarcastic and cyncial and you know it.

Here's a tip: Ask people IN YOUR AREA next time. People don't camp out for wrestling tickets where I live.

Good point, but it seems like nobody in my area uses message boards, and that's why I asked in here. If people weren't sure, they should have said they weren't sure.

People were sure, they were going off of their experience. Hell I bought tickets to SummerSlam two days after they went on sale and got front row center.

People dont camp out for tickets where I live either....they camp out at a stupid store right before it opens for a chance to win some gift prizes but they dont camp out for good seats.

Well perhaps the people in your area are more fanatical on wrestling than other places, ever thought of that?

I camped out once at 9 pm.
I got no tickets and neither did the people outside with me.
The bastards let people with children go ahead (I must of been 15) and people who had got there about an hour earlier. Then the next morning we were told there wa sno tickets and that they'd all been sold on the net. Mayhem ensued, my friend found away into the box office but I had the money for all of us (12?).
You can get screwed. The story to this.... Buy tickets online.. much easier.

You only posted you're thread last night, so no matter what anyone on here said you still wouldn't have been first because of the sad bastard that got there at 4:30am yesterday morning.

When I said "go now", I was implying that the earlier you go, the better. It's not my fault you didn't prepare yourself for something you were really lookig forward to.

lol, only Star Wars geeks camp out for tickets. I remember on the news some guy camped out for a month before the tickets went on sale. KNOB!

I don't get people like that. Yeah get there early so you're not too far back in the que so you don't have to wait as long, but going to all that trouble of getting there the day before and camping out just so you can be first, you end up spending more time waiting than anyone. Twats.

dude...when the WWE came to Melbourne last year, my mate got there at 8am, the ticket box opened at 8:30, and no one who had lined up got tickets.
FUCKING WWE never told us you can get them online.
Anywayz, we turned up to the event hoping to sneak and low and FUCKING behold, they still had tickets on sale...twats!
Still, i got to say hello to RVD, Paul London and BIlly Kidman, and touched Rene Durpee's are :love: :p
