R. Rich Posted August 20, 2004 Posted August 20, 2004 Since I'll be meeting with the owner of Sliders, I'd like to see if I can give him another estimate of how many will be there. From what I heard the first time I asked who might go, I told him about 300, maybe more. Due to the difficulty of getting tickets for the game, I realize that we probably won't get that many. Last time I asked though, we still had over 200 (including any guests that will be coming with them) that said they'll go. That's about the number I was going to tell the guy when I see him tomorrow. Those of you who still plan to attend, if you could give me an estimate of how many you plan to bring with you (if any), I'd appreciate it. After the meeting, I'll post another message about whatever details of the tailgate we get resolved.
The Tomcat Posted August 20, 2004 Posted August 20, 2004 Should be myself and 3 others.......(that would be 4 total for you Patsy trolls)
JinVA Posted August 20, 2004 Posted August 20, 2004 As of now I'm not planning on going due to the ticket situation, if an extra comes up please let me know, I still may go via bus package deal from a company down here but its a five hour drive and the bus returns after the game and I'd much rather stay the night. 10hrs on a bus=rj
BillsFanNC Posted August 20, 2004 Posted August 20, 2004 i may be there. It's 50/50 that I may have suite tickets.

I know he bought one of those "tailgate packages" of 30 tickets for $6,500.00 and has been trying to sell them. When I saw him a few months ago, I told him I'd post a message on the board so that any interested TBDers could check it out. I guess I'll have to re-post it since we lost the old posts.

R. Rich Posted August 20, 2004 Author Posted August 20, 2004 Will do. Maybe we'll be lucky and find a decent deal between now and game day. More than likely, we won't, and I'll get them through a broker, but never say never.
Guffalo Posted August 20, 2004 Posted August 20, 2004 I am trying to get there but tickets are too high right now. What are the scalpers getting right before gametime? I may have one shot, but I have to pray that the Ravens keep Doug Goodwin on thier roster, I am freinds with his parents (the Dad played for the Bills 64+65) They may be able to get other players tickets.
R. Rich Posted August 20, 2004 Author Posted August 20, 2004 What are the scalpers getting right before gametime?662[/snapback] In reference to that issue... Lots of luck. I've been trying to find an inexpensive alternative to going the ticket broker route, and it's just not happenin'. I'm just going to buy a pair of tickets from a broker and be done with it. Those who plan on just showing up at the game, thinking they'll find cheap seats need to take into consideration that this game is SOLD OUT!!! I can't think of any person who has tickets (and, believe me, Ravens tickets are very expensive) that would want to dispose of them at cost or less than cost when they can inflate the price and get them sold. If they didn't have those damn PSLs, I would've just bought season tickets once the new stadium opened, as my wife is a Steelers fan and would then get to see them once a year. We're on the waiting list for Steelers season tickets, but I don't expect to see those for almost another decade. 328[/snapback]
Luvbills Posted August 20, 2004 Posted August 20, 2004 I am headed there with a bunch of friends from Roch/Buffalo on a bus (Tealtravel.com). Are you planning a tailgate or party of some sort?(I probably missed your original post).
The Tomcat Posted August 20, 2004 Posted August 20, 2004 Sliders before/after the game....Lots of Bills Fans....Lots of fun...check it out!
ShelfromNJ Posted August 20, 2004 Posted August 20, 2004 My wife and I have tickets and plan to go to Sliders before the game. Are there any plans for the day before the game?

_BiB_ Posted August 20, 2004 Posted August 20, 2004 In regards to the tailgate, they can contact me. 935[/snapback] If I can get a ticket. I'm not willing to pay $150.00 for top of the endzone.
Rico Posted August 20, 2004 Posted August 20, 2004 I've got season tickets to the Ravens (only go when there's no conflict with a Bills game ) but unfortunately will be out-of-town on business. And before anyone asks, sorry, but they're already spoken for.
