Looking Bleak For Those Who Want Rockies Tickets…
I’m about 1700 miles away from Denver, and things are looking bleak for those who want tickets to the World Series out there…
According to the Denver Post:
Tickets to the World Series games in Denver are close to selling out, the Colorado Rockies report.
The only seats left are for the possible Monday game, the third home game.
Rockies spokesman Jay Alves told reporters at Coors Field that sales had increased to about 1,500 per minute, and he anticipated a sell-out for all three games.
“Not everyone who wants to get a ticket is going to get a ticket today,” he said. “It’s just not possible.”
The first attempt to sell tickets was stymied Monday by a “malicious, external attack” on the ticket sales system. The Rockies website took 8.5 million hits in a 90-minute period that began at 10 a.m. Monday and proved too much for the system to handle.
Sigh, it’s been bad. I have heard of few people getting through. Were people better off just standing in line? If I were a consumer, I’d be upset; however, life is not fair.
I’m going to look online later and check out third-party, broker prices online…
