I just did a search on ticketmaster for seats for the big Argos/Als game on Sunday.
As of Friday @ approx. 12:40am, there are ONLY singles left in the $30 and $80 price levels; however, you can still get pairs in the $70, $65, and $40 sections, as well as, the $25 seats in the general admission nosebleeds (500-level).
I hope there's a good walk-up crowd cuz the 50,000 guesstimate seems a little off at the current juncture.
it was officially announced at 36 000 AS OF LAST FRIDAY....
last friday BEFORE the alouettes became the official opponents.....argotom ( who knows his stuff ) says thier at 43 000 yesterday....sell-out is 44 761
i will cheer for the following teams in the grey cup:
if its the Lions against anyone, then i cheer the Lions.
if Montreal vs Edmonton, then ill cheer the Als
Toronto vs Edmonton, then i'll cheer the Argos.
i won't cheer on the Eskimos this year....i cheered for them when they beat the Als in 2003.
A Toronto club official said Saturday that 41,000 tickets have been sold for the game, which would beat the previous high of just over 40,000 who saw the Argos down Hamilton 34-11 on Nov. 4. Capacity is 44,761.
need a walk up of 3 761...but it's still back-2-back 40K + games....good momentum going into the 2006 season.
