Red Mosquito

In advance, I thought my 2013 show might be my last, but I enjoyed it much more than I expected. Alternately, I was excited for the 2016 Fenway show, but it left me a little cold.

IIRC they said it's total entries and total available, ranking doesn't factor in, 99% means the same for 1st choice or 8th choice.

Do people really think they will outsmart everyone else by waiting until the last minute to submit their entries? that is dumb and risky given PJ's history with their website.

Correct

Ticket Odds are based on the number of members entered in the drawing versus the number of tickets available.
Odds will change throughout the drawing entry period as the number of entries changes.

I typically wait. I place lowest odds show 1st, next lowest odds 2nd and so on. I knew how Fenway 1 and 2 would fall given one is a Sunday and the other is a Tuesday so I entered right away this time.

Yeah Boston 1 just dropped to 97%, so not everyone is getting seats.

Maybe some people wait until payday to enter.

They don't charge you until the day of the drawing

Yeah but if thousands of 10cers are doing the same thing... the odds don’t matter until the last minute.

I know, but some people might not be comfortable putting their card in until they have the money to cover it.

they might also be waiting for their loan application to go through

I imagine a lot of people's payday is the 15th. So nice of PJ to make the lottery end on the 12th, lol

Yeah I'm scrambling for cash. I had my brother do a bank transfer for his half today because Venmo wouldn't get to me in time.

I'm having second thoughts about going to Seattle. The travel cost would be more than Fenway and Wrigley combined.

We’re officially out. The rising ticket cost has priced us out. We’ve got too much going on this year with the kids to spend the kind of money we’d have to spend to catch a show. Rat bastards for increasing ticket costs.

I entered and Boston 1 is down to 93%. Bring out the pitchforks!
