We've created a Facebook group: http://www.facebook.com/?sk=messages&tid=1273042543591#!/group.php?gid=110090262341630&ref=mf. Please consider joining and passing on the word.

I know. It's a long shot, but after repeated calls to Saints ticket office gives very little information to those of us who lost our seats, some Upper Terrace Who Dats are working to request a few things from the team:

* clarification on how many non-renewals they expect to get (based on previous years) and then offer to displaced ticket holders
* clarification on the price range for those seats
* any option for a temporary solution before new seats are available in 2011 (standing room only ticket; absorbing some opponent team's tickets; opportunity to buy face-value individual game seats from current season ticket holders who willingly offer them for purchase to those who lost theirs)

We know this is all unlikely, but please consider making suggestions for how we might proceed.
And we've had several related blog stories:

I'm down with Dilly and Berto at the start of 635 and the Cafe 641 Menus have been highlights for years. This is damn tragic.
 
Just be sure to keep your discussions with the ticket office level-headed and rational. The voice on the phone probably isn't the one who sets policy, so getting emotional with them will only get you a dial tone, and getting emotional with the person who does set policy will probably only get (1) a scripted message of condolence, or (2) a dial tone. Be clear that you're looking for more information and for assurance that they have considered every possible alternative, and don't go in there looking to start a fight.
 
Sucks man...I feel for you. I'm in section 643..just low enough where this isn't effecting me but I do feel bad. they ought to move you to the single game ticket seats and just sell less of those seats this year...sad
 
I sympathize and would not want to be in that number. Bump.
