I'm a mini-pack holder and I sent my form in a while ago to try to get at least one pair and hopefully two pairs. But I have yet to hear back. I checked some Sabres messageboards and the Sabres supposedly are going to make the decisions this month and send the tickets to the mini-pack holders and the season ticket holders that bought extras. I was wondering if anyone heard anything yet or noticed a charge on their credit cards...

:feedback:

I was listening to WGR and the sabres are sending letters out to season ticket holders giving them extre 2 tix only. Mini-pack and blue gold club memebers i heard were pretty much screwed, but you may have a shot at obstructed view seats.

Buffalo Sabres fans now have another opportunity to purchase tickets to the NHL Winter Classic.

4,500 obstructed view seats are now available for $10 each. The seats are in the first 15 rows of Ralph Wilson Stadium.

The Sabres are holding an on-line lottery for fans who want to purchase tickets. Ticket applications will be accepted until 5 p.m. on Friday, November 16th. No single seats will be sold and all applications must include the following:


At least one person in party must be under 16 years old.

Applicants must have a Western New York or Southern Ontario zip code.

Click here http://www.sabres.com/ to apply for Winter Classic tickets.

All non-obstructed view seats were sold within a half hour of going on sale on September 18th.

I'm going to register. I don't think I should take Jillian to an outdoor game in January but maybe a nephew.

and to make it even better, it sounds like they are going to have those entrances special, to make sure you have a 16 or under kid with you. What a load of ****! :mad:

like I've said before in another post I hope it's 70 degrees and sunny so the ice melts and this game doesn't get played.

To show that the Sabres are serious about this, each group of tickets will contain one colorcoded ticket that an adult can’t use for admission.

Any group of two, three or four people with those tickets will not be admitted without a child, the team says

the sabres keep playing like this and there will be plenty of tickets available on the street.

you guys sound like a bunch of winey crybabies. The tickets are ten dollars. If you want them find a kid and go to the game.

Sitting in a Bills Club Seat, they offered me my seat that day for $200. What a joke.

I'll be watching College Football all day and won't even turn it on.

yeah, that's safe and logical. i'm sure i can just grab one off the street so i can sit in a $10 seat with a goal post in my way.

the sabres are losing me as a fan with all this bs they are pulling. 4 years ago you couldn't give tickets away, now they act like their **** doesn't stink. putting 55 stipulations on the purchase of tickets, letting their 2 best players go, and still failing to win a cup when they had the best team 2 years running has really increased my interest in the team. **** them.

To be fair, there are tons of criticism thrown at the Sabres for not being fan friendly enough and not doing enough to discourage people from buying seats and re-selling them on EBay for profit.

Doing this shoud limit that practice. It is not about screwing the fans, it is about trying to respond to the *****ing from the sales before.

Oh it's the kind of fans they are *****ing about...namely THEM. This move is not BS it's meant to help parents bring their kids to the game and get the kids the same way a happy meal does.

I found out that the Sabres charged my credit card for 2 of those lower bowl cheap seats that they were holding for mini-pack holders. :up:
