Re: Toyota Center Houston 12/6?
Someone posted a comment under the "news" section that may be relevant to this whole discussion. Will the card holder have to be present? Comment 32 says the cardholder must be present and they will swipe the card. There are no listings on Stubhub, but I am starting to see some listings on Craigslist. Could be some very disappointed people Come Monday.
Buy the ticket, take the ride.

Re: Toyota Center Houston 12/6?
Can anyone who received the invitation and purchased tickets shed any light on whether those of us who weren't so lucky might be able to use tickets we purchase? I know that it says admission is non-transferrable, but I'm wondering how they will police that? Considering purchasing tickets on Craigslist, but don't want the extra depresssion of losing my money on top of not getting to see Jimmy.
Thanks
Thanks

Don't guess there is any need for seat fillersbuffetman2 wrote:I just talked to my friend's girlfriend who works there, and she mentioned the passcode she was given for internal use was 'parrot head'. As of now, it is disabled, but she said after Dec 2nd, when the Amex tickets are emailed out to those who registered, the passcode will be activated so "fillers" can part-take in any empty seats. I hope she is right. I am so looking forward to this..... YES!!!!!!!

Re: Toyota Center Houston 12/6?
i was able to find a pair of tickets via a contact i have at toyota center (i used to work up there).
-they are etickets that he emailed me. no box office printed tickets available
-there is no name on the tickets, as well as nothing about bringing a amex card with you.
-in the price section of the ticket, it has a code that (i believe) refers to "building comped" tickets
-doors at 7:00, show at 8:00
-the original email has nothing about the tickets being linked to a name or amex number
hoping i will be able to get in with these. we'll see. worst case is i will just carry an id and cash on me and plead my case if they need me to swipe an amex card.
before i was able to find these i had planned on heading down there dressed up and standing outside the doors and seeing if anyone had an extra....thats probably the best advice i could give anyone wanting to get in.
i would be hesitant of buying any off of craigslist unless you agree to not pay until you are inside. with it being etickets, nothing stops these sellers from printing 20 copies of each ticket and selling all of them individually.
hope this answers some questions....we'll know all of this for sure tomorrow night....

Re: Toyota Center Houston 12/6?
a bit sad to see people selling tickets to tonight's show on ebay and other boards.
if you happen to need someone to accompany you to the show, I would gladly drive down from College Station and join you!

Re: Toyota Center Houston 12/6?
I took a HUGE gamble and purchased 2 tickets off Craigslist for tonight's show. If I get burned at the door, I'm getting trashed at nearest bar. Either way, tonight will be great night.
Whoever got tickets, ENJOY!
