All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
There is work to be done and things to be learned. We are going to try to get the old look back - or something close to it. We also know there are bugs. A thread will be started to report bugs and then we can pass those onto the host.
Thank you for all the patience and support with this - hopefully this will greatly reduce the crashes and other site issues we have had lately.
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

I went on Ticketmaster.ca to check and seats are available all the way to the $175 section. With all the hype over the supposed 180,000 waiting list, I would have thought they would have sold out by now.
Question: if you registered, did you NOT get a password? Some lottery. What happens if Ted Rogers takes a bath on this 5-year deal? Does he drop prices? Sell games individually? I'm guessing he can't get out of paying Ralph his $78M.

They tickets are not open to the general public yet correct?
That is true. But apparently everyone who registered for the lottery got a password. So in theory that's 180,000 potential buyers. You would think that would be enough to sell 53,000 (approx) tickets.

this may be a good thing- hopefully it will force Toronto to lower prices for future games. Buffalo probably needs Toronto to remain economically viable so we don't want the venture to be a complete failure, but we also don't want it to be lucrative enough to make the NFL want to move the team.

Where are you getting this 180,000 number? Not that many Bills fans actually registered. And even if all of the season ticket holders of both the Argos and Bills registered that would still be under 100,000. Am I missing something here?

I'm too lazy to look up the article, but there was at least one article that said there was a waiting list of 180k for tickets to the Toronto game.

Twice in one day! OMG!
I totally agree. It's good that maybe it's not the golden goose that everyone thought it was, but we need it to help us out. And maybe it has with 5 games sold out already.
I've gotten 4 seperate emails from them with a code to buy tickets in the last 5 days. Same code, just more emails. I'm thinking that the demand isn't what they thought it was going to be. Yeah they will sell all of the seats, but nobody is gonna be making big money reselling these things on stubhub, and ebay.
And yes, 180,000 people signed up on that site to get put into a lottery to buy tickets. It's a totally seperate thing, the season ticket holders could buy them before this, I had a different password for this.

^Well, I may have given Wilson too much credit^
I wanted to get tickets but the price was too steep. The best I could get was $1,770 for the 3 game package ($1,770/6 = $295 per ticket) and one game is a preseason game
