blueandgoldguy Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 I took my weekly look at Grey Cup ticket sales and it appears there has been some significant movement in seats. I would estimate there are only 3000 left. Of course, not all the grayed out seats are sold, but I think it's safe to say that only a few hundred more of those will be made available over the coming months. Provided they didn't have to give too many discounts or freebies, props to Miller and the Grey Cup marketing committee for this bump in seats sales. There should be a legit sellout with the way things are progressing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueandgoldguy Posted September 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 With the elimination of the temporary north end zone seats capacity will be in the 36 - 37,000 range. A month ago, there was around 5000 available seats (shown as blues on ticketmaster) in the upper deck. It gradually declined to the approx. 1000 seats left now. While I'm sure there are some seats that are being held back, I doubt the club would deliberately remove seats from unsold status to sold status over the course of the last week.

gbill2004 Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 Wasn't it like 26k sold a month ago? That's at least 10k available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah a little over a month ago the sales were around 26,000. Maybe they have sold 6,000 tickets in the last 6 weeks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DR. CFL Posted October 1, 2015 Report Share Posted October 1, 2015 Discounted tickets for alumni and thru some major corporate sponsors. Sorry if you didn't have a hook up. After all it is Winnipeg...who pays full price? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DR. CFL Posted October 1, 2015 Report Share Posted October 1, 2015 Why discount tickets? You have reduced the seating by 5k and recently most Cup games have been sold out by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goalie Posted October 1, 2015 Report Share Posted October 1, 2015 Maybe fans from around the league are now starting to buy tickets... Discounts? I don't think so, the Dr is once again speculating, he should know being a DR of the CFL that speculating is not a good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noeller Posted October 1, 2015 Report Share Posted October 1, 2015 Side note about Grey Cup Week: I'm a fan of the announcement that the 3 "Manitoban" craft brewers will be the official beer outside of the game itself, to which Labatt has exclusive rights. But all the socials and different events will feature Fort Garry, Half Pints and Farmery, which is only partly Manitoban. As a big craft beer junkie, this is fantastic news. blueandgoldguy, JohnnyOnTheSpot, Geebrr and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noeller Posted October 1, 2015 Report Share Posted October 1, 2015 Farmery WILL be made in MB soon...the brewery is under construction at Arden Hill, outside Neepawa, as we speak. For the time being, all the ingredients are grown here and brewed outta the Muskoka plant in ON.... Regardless...Half Pints and Ft Garry make some great brews, and Farmery is solid for an inoffensive sessionable beer. TrueBlue and Rich 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
