That's strange, I don't ever remember getting a message, and I usually wait until the last minute to send my money. You serious, it was Childress? lol !! I sent my first payment two weeks ago, $1481..., painful.

:shock: That's just your 1st payment? $1481? that would mean your seats cost $4,443 this year.

How many seats do you have & where do you sit?

Bet I can guess. 4 tickets in the lower level sections 107-111 or 131-135, right? At $1110 a pop, those seats can be pretty spendy. How long have you had those tickets inorder to get down so low?

That's about what I was figuring (4) @ $110/game. Skol must be a long time ticket holder.

I just turned in my "move" & "additional ticket" request. I'll have to see what becomes of it.

The first 6 rows of the upper level at midfield on both sides of the field are $110 per seat per game. I have 4 seats on the home side of the field at the 45 yard line. I've requested to be moved to better seats nearly every year since I got my season tickets in 1987. I never moved as fast as the year I told them that I'd like the highest price available. The last couple of years I've requested to be moved to the three sections in the lower level immediately behind the Vikiing's bench. Eventually I'll get there. In the mean time I'll just complain about how much the tickets are.

How many rows up from the carpet are you Skol?

It is the upper level, row 6, aisle seat, and the next three beside that. Who knows, maybe this is the year that I make the lower level midfield. I think I'd have a better chance of moving down if I didn't ask for only the home side, but I'm picky... and patient.

Childress didn't call me, but he sent me an e-mail. :lol:
