It might sound odd, but it always bothers me on TV and I really like it in person. Weird.

I don’t post much these days (here or elsewhere, honestly), but it’s been part of my routine since Todd Collins (though I think my name was different). Hell, my wife said “you’ve been reading that site the whole time we’ve been married” a few weeks ago.. that’s 24 years!

Ticketmaster’s tech is actually super impressive. They’re almost entirely a tech company at this point, given most sales are online in some fashion. They had some cool clustering stuff even 10-15 years ago or more. This one smells of an intern enabling codes days too early, coupled with intentional single use “codes.” Which FWIW always seemed to me like everyone sharing the same damn passwords. I however have tickets and seats on a jet, so good to go here again!

Yo! Losing tickets apparently! I still check this place every day (and I have since Todd Collins). Happy to see you do too!

Same thing happened to me. Here’s the text of what they sent. Apparently they activated the “BILLSMAFIA” and “CHIEFSKINGDOM” codes before STH, and tons sold and hit secondary at warp speed. I bought and had no idea that’s where my tickets came from. It’s more of a TM eff up than it is an “unauthorized code”, but here we are. It sucks, but STH now rightfully get first go. If it were any other business, I’d expect them to do a “make it right”, but I don’t see any potential for that here. I guess I’ll wait and try again in a couple days. Son of a… I’ll also make sure to go with a competitor to TM next time. — Attention Ticketholder, The tickets you purchased were acquired by a buyer who used an unauthorized code.

I agree, and I promise I’m not being a downer or a jerk, but unfortunately it isn’t the case that they can’t happen later as well. I find a bit of comfort in knowing the second and third stringers are getting the reps early, getting a better look, and are more of a known quality. Thus, if needed later as well…

Not a bad idea. Leaning forward in a seat is not something I’m even aware to pay attention to. It’s obnoxious because you need to be self aware that you’re leaning in a *^*}% seat at a ^}*+^% hockey game. I did it like three or four times, but never intentionally, just because like… moving in a seat is something I’ve never had to check before. It’’s not natural to sit back and relax. I had forgotten entirely about that stupid rule.

I saw the Sabres there a few years ago and this blew my mind. When I’d lean forward, due to you know, hockey excitement, either an usher or the people behind me would tell me to lean back. I didn’t stand as I had no reason to… but leaning! Double you tee eff.

Looked it up myself. Legit. Fins wieners are disagreeing with him and asserting their connection is nothing like Hill/Tua. I should hope not.

I’ve been around since the Todd Collins days; still here! This place remains awesome.

I’ve paid attention since about 1985 or so, really got in during the run. Born into it, but actually started caring around the first grade. The first thing I remember is the KC championship during that run. I don’t really have a favorite player? I know that sounds odd, but the team is more important. My forum name is just the first two letters of my last name followed by my first! It’s not my first though. I lost that one, but I do remember discussing Todd Collins on this board, so there’s that!

I will be starting a petition to rename the Bills to “the Jeffs” immediately. Best idea I’ve seen this evening at least.

I could have sworn NFL Josh did that once as well, I'm going to have to go dig through videos to see if I can find it now.

Yo! Yeah, I still read quite a bit. I missed this crew so I figured I’d reset my password and log back in. I remember having Todd Collins conversations here, so I’m kinda stuck I guess.

It’s probably so he remembers how to play in front of a friggin’ home crowd.
