I got some beef with the Rockies. I mean, we're all really glad they are in the series. But, they are selling the tix online only. What that does, is allow people anywhere in the country, scalpers included, to attempt to buy the tix. So, being a Denver/frontrange/CO resident in no way allows you a better chance at tix. Usually they sell them at the ballpark...well, not this year. And, we all know what happens when you try to buy tix online w/ a huge amt of people trying- the servers sieze up and no one gets tix. That is EXACTLY what happened. No one I know got them. So lame. Now, what's happening is that scalpers all over the country with no affiliation to Rocks or Sox are making lots of money on the tix and people who just want to go can't get some w/out paying a ton. Weak Sauce!

Weak sauce is right! Whoever made the online decision dropped the ball. So many tix went to season tix holders, the other team, and players families that the only fair system would have been selling them at the box office. Worry not, I'm sure we will find some tickets regardless
Dang ol' Dang ol'... you should call all the car rental companies and rent all the cars and then go to the airport and scalp the cars to the scalpers!
Sorta makes you wish the Yankees made it to the series.....after all, everyone LOVES THE YANKEES!!!
We are clearly rookies to this whole World Series thing. In any case, we WILL score tix today!
Our years of hacking through ticketbastard in the mid 90s gives us a slight edge...hopefully...(knocks on wood).
