The Home Stretch

Well, here we are folks.  It's 2 days until the match?  Have you picked up your tickets yet?  If not go ahead and click here to grab them.

This is what the Ticketmaster seating map is looking like for Saturday as of 4:30p Thursday.

This map is a bit misleading as it looks as if 210,202, 222, 223, 229, 230, 119 and 113 haven't been opened up for sale yet.  (Just our opinion, no inside information.)  It's looking at this point (unless there are really weird pockets of non-released tickets) that there are around 6400 unsold tickets remaining for Saturday's match.  This number doesn't include Nordecke tickets, but our assumption is that the Nordecke is going to be sold out Saturday.

This would put the attendance number (if the match was being held today) at 13,745.  That would be the third highest attended match so far this year at Crew Stadium.  Here's the good thing.  The match isn't being held today.  It's being held on Saturday.  There's still walk up and last minute ticket purchases to account for.  This is a good foundation to build on.  Remember to continue to post about this event on social media and hang up posters, but the best thing you can do right now to help drive that number up even further is to call some friends and get them out to the stadium on Saturday.  Invite your family, co-workers, boss, neighbor etc.  Remember if you are going to bring a group to call the Crew FO as the sales folks there can hook you up with group discounts etc.  (Their number is 614-447-CREW)  Also there's an Ultimate Tailgate package for the match as well.  Ya know... for hungry folks.  There's still time.  Let's pack this place.

Also make sure to check out the Dispatch on Saturday.  We were interviewed about the operation by Adam Jardy and he is being pretty awesome and putting it in the newspaper.  Thanks Adam!

Also remember the prizes a couple posts down.  Check them out.

Last thing.  Steve Abreu from Boston bought 3 tickets in the Nordecke for us to give away.  If you or if you know someone who wants to come out, but might not be able to afford it let us know.  We're going to give them away to folks who need them.  If we don't get anyone with a need we'll give them away randomly to folks who Tweet/RT the #operationjune1sellout hashtag.
