Opening Day Ticket Lottery

[BadgerFan]

Did anyone get a response/win a chance to by opening day tickets? I thought the Brewers were going to notify everyone today, but none of my work buddies nor myself got any type of message from the Brewers. Maybe they're only notifying the winners?

[bani1717]

For some reason I thought they were holding the drawing and notifying the winners on or around Friday

[Buckhunts]

You're going to get an email stating whether you were picked or not. I'm not sure when that will be though. I think I heard this friday as well.

[PlayerHader]

Today was the last day to sign up I believe. (Or was it yesterday?) Emails go out Friday. (Or is it Sunday?)

[thablingster]

Winners were to be notified by email on Friday, February 20. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

 

I know last year they sent emails to everyone, those selected and those not selected.

[bobbledude25]

I thought I read Feb 23rd?

[zachlaka]

The last day to register was the 17th. I had also heard Friday was the day you could buy the tickets but not sure about when you get notified.

 

Last year the 14th was the last day to register and 4 days later on the 18th was when you got notified.

Does anyone know how many tickets you can buy if you win?

[zachlaka]

Up to four tickets.

[Blancofan1]

anyone get any emails today one way or another? I didn't get anything, so I'm thinking--nay-- hoping I still have a shot at picking up the extra tickets.

[Buckhunts]

I talked to someone in the ticket office and they said that the email will be sent out on Monday notifying both the winners and losers.

[zachlaka]

ice thanks for the news.

 

I was hoping they wouldn't do it yesterday while I was at work.

 

Now I can open up all 3 of the loosing emails I should receive since I never win these lotteries http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/laugh.gif

[bluemoundlotallstar]

I never win these either but I suppose that is because I only enter once and not multiple times.

[panthernick]

Looks like my opening day tickets with my season tickets have charged for a grand total of.......$30. That puts me in Bernies Terrace. Bummer. Well I guess beggars can't be choosers.

[zachlaka]

Anyone know what time they are sending out the emails today?

 

It would be nice if they would do it soon so I can get my official confirmation that I lost again as usual http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Concidering i'll probably have to pay double or triple that cost just to get in(and probably be in bernies terrace as well), concider yourself lucky.

I got my hands on two GREAT pavillion Jimmy Buffett tickets at Alpine this morning and now I'm hoping that I can swap these for similar value Opening Day tickets. Brokers would have a field day with $150+ face value tickets to a show that sold out in less than 10 minutes. Hopefully I can still get a shot at Opening Day tickets through the lottery and sell these at face to a diehard that would enjoy the show, if I can't find a decent trade.

[berniebrewer4life]

I didn't get in the opening day lottery, but i did get in on the marquee game lottery. So that works out.

[brwrsfan]

I got my thank you for entering email just now, bummer.

[Brew City Baseball Fan]

no luck here either

[joepepsi]

I got the rejection too. However, they did invite me to buy tickets for the Reds' series April 13-15 for half price!

[zachlaka]

I got shutout for opening day with 5 email accounts. No one in my family won http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/frown.gif

 

But I did win once for Marquee Games. I really wanted to keep my loosing streak going too http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/laugh.gif

 

Looks like I will be buying some Scrubs and White Sox tickets Wednesday morning.

So, is it a good thing that I haven't gotten this email yet or did I just dream that I signed up?

[utdfan]

I also got rejected for both but I did get an offer for a second marquee game presale on Thursday the 26th. Did everyone who entered get this?
