    It's tomorrow for the season and partial season ticket holders. Has anyone ever been before? What exactly happens at this?

    Feel free to move this to another forum if you must.

    I am also attending this tomorrow. Does anyone know what would be a good time to get there to be one of the first 500? I was thinking 430?

    Maybe I can get an explanation on this...

    My dad and I have been part of a ticket group through a guy he works with for over a decade now. It used to be that the guy bought like 12 season ticket packages and then split them up between like 20 people in the group.

    Well this year, they apparently put some limits on how many playoff tickets you are guaranteed when you buy a large group of season tickets under one name (or something like that) so my dad had to go in with the guy and charge some of the season ticket packages in his name and then get reimbursed later as people bought into the group.

    So technically it seems like my dad should be a season ticket holder, but he hasn't received any season ticket holder info or invites to this type of stuff at all this season. It sucks because I've always wanted to go to the Play Day, and I thought I might finally get a chance this year :(

    You should def try to get in contact with a rep and see if there is anything they can do for you. If the other guy got the play day pass, they may allow him to rsvp some more people under his name.

    The pass I got in the mail mentioned free food. I assume it's nothing more than popcorn/nachos or something. I have an idea they will cheap out a bit and I can't say I really blame them.

    I gave a coworker the card I got in the mail so he could take his daughter, but with the weather we're having he said he's probably going to bail :(

    You just walk around and play games with the players...free food like hotdogs, nachos and drinks.

    You'll def get to see the players up close!! I went last year but not this year since I didn't buy any tickets.
