You can be guaranteed those seats if you buy Super 3 tickets, but that will require you to have the same seats all 3 nights. I go to the theater broadcast for prelims, sit in 640 for semis, and low in 140 for finals. I have never had an issue securing these seats as long as you are purchasing the moment they go on sale. Wait a day or two and you may miss out. I feel like I get to see 3 completely different shows over 3 days. It's pricey, but tons of fun. Z Great advise. Thanks very much! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Z The first thing I do on Thursday morning is apply for my Super 3 tickets ... I actually like being the same seat for 3 days. It starts feeling like home after a while (and I've seen all the corps earlier from higher up). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the 2020 finals I would so much like to be able to get a few tickets low in section 140. Since they never seem to be offered on Ticketmaster (at least that was my experience when I checked very early when finals ticket went on sale last year) I assume assume these seats must be in some way reserved. Could someone please tell me how one gets access to purchasing these prime tickets (Is it by becoming a donor to DCI or to a particular corps?) Sorry this is off topic, but in some recent posts were people have been talking about their their great seats at finals, and it got me thinking. Thanks very much. Some of the corps sell tickets on their websites. Check them out early in the season. You’ll often only pay face value without Ticketmaster gouging you for your last penny.

No one has sat in my seat at DCI since that place opened. Well, except for the seat squatters that I have to evict. 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terri Schehr Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 I try to be nice. I say did you really think that no one bought these seats? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been to the oil can once, but just like the theater on Thursday, my cliff/protein bars and G2 are never removed and a cavity search isn't required. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It gets washed then put in the bottom of a drawer where no sun can hit it. It stays there for 363 days until I pull it out for the trip to Indy.

Ghost Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 I shouldn't bust chops. I still wear occasionally the great 2000 Prime Time Players t-shirt Boston had. In the middle of a TV, Waldo is holding a banner that says Top 5. They sure had them made quickly with no guarantee they would be in the top 5 until maybe after prelims.
