$90 for show-specific skateboards. I can’t even imagine spending that much to get the whole set.

these people get charged 2x the amount of camping chairs just in delivery fees for pj stickers from the 10c.wease wrote:Mrs Wease told me I was stupid when I suggested that.dad wrote:I had the exact same thought.

every ga i’ve been in the last couple of tours (22-24) has had plenty of space, and if you’re fine not being super close to ed between mike and stone you’re pretty much able to do exactly what you did. they’ve been good about not overselling. can’t speak to the msgs or phillys and whatnot, as i haven’t done those, but it seems to me most arena ga pits haven’t had issues getting close if that’s your thing.Mr.x wrote:It's so odd, I've only done GA once and it was through the lottery in Baltimore in the fall. Because I had one of my kids with me, we didn't do the opener. After the opener went off, we walked into GA. We could have walked right up to the rail on Stone's side. Now there were some people in the middle, but even during the show my daughter could do cartwheels around GA there was so much room on Stone's side. So either it was because Baltimore was not as popular of a show or someone is lying?

The fanatics camping out are 110% there to get as close to Ed in the middle as possible. I’m guessing it’s 1000% more weirdo in that concentrated area than it is just few feet outside of it.AndySlash wrote:every ga i’ve been in the last couple of tours (22-24) has had plenty of space, and if you’re fine not being super close to ed between mike and stone you’re pretty much able to do exactly what you did. they’ve been good about not overselling. can’t speak to the msgs or phillys and whatnot, as i haven’t done those, but it seems to me most arena ga pits haven’t had issues getting close if that’s your thing.Mr.x wrote:It's so odd, I've only done GA once and it was through the lottery in Baltimore in the fall.
