Opening Day 2017
« on: October 06, 2016, 05:56:06 pm »
I haven't heard from the Astros yet but it probably won't be long. I've run this thing about as long as I care to. Who'd like to take over for a while?

87 views and no other discussion? I'm not kidding folks, I'm not going to herd the cats next season. It's not a hard gig, but I am tired and just don't have the time for it. Step right up, I'll make it as easy as I can...

I just got the email and the clock is ticking. If you want an OWA Opening Day outing in 2017, someone needs to step up now.

I need a preferred SECTION or PRICE RANGE to know what tickets to get.

I need a confirmation from everyone wanting to purchase tickets.

ASAP.

Ok, I count 14 plus my 2.  Pretty sure we need 20 to make it a go.  Anyone else?

If us buying a few more to go empty ensures there's one less Cubfan in attendance, I'm all for it.

If it's not too late I'll take some, at least 2 but let me know if you need more.  I liked where we were last year, but anyplace is fine.

Any word on the status of the group tickets? SWA is having a sale and I'm thinking of pulling the trigger.

Since Jane does not seem to want to respond.  I am going to call the Astros and try to get us all tickets.  Please sound off in a separate thread to make it easier for me to keep track of who wants tickets.  I do not have time to sift through this thread finding that information.
