Who has there tickets?

It took me over 5.5hrs to get my tickets.
I was there about 0555 and got away at 1130

I was halfway back in the first block of the south stand.
Each row was taking 10-15 mins to clear.
The first 2 block were full
Some people will be there for a long time yet.

i think the tigers staff are doing a great job at organising all of the fans into the right place and providing free tea and coffee, Great!!!

lets just hope the premiership semi final isnt going to be like that, having to be there at 4 in the morning

Smuggy McSmug Smug here got his tickets over a month ago through Ticketmaster, so confident was I that we would be there... :mr.green:

I got there at 6.30am and bumped into a lady who had stayed in the car park all night...!

I was 2 thirds of the way up the first block in the Next stand but didn't need to worry as I got through on the phone at about 9.30am and bought all 6 tickets. Couldn't believe it...!

I could have stayed in bed. :o?

Well done to all the staff for their organisation and free tea and coffee.

See you all at Twickenham(oh, and on Saturday)

Finally got through on the phone - started at 08:55, bought them at 12:10 - exhausted. A tip - I eventually gave up on BT and got though really quickly on orange mobile - worth a try.

i cant see how changing phone will work but oh well, well done for getting them.

has anyone esle heard that the erc are going to be giving more tickets to tigers, i heard something on the radio while waiting in the que this morning.

Yes, I heard that too.

David Clayton was saying that he was confident of being able to get some more.

Do I smell an ERC driven publicity campaign? Keep demand high and supply low so everyone talks about it.

Clever marketing...!

Got there at 7:00 and my row in the clubhouse stand was called at 12:30. This better be £60 well spent.

Can we work out what the optimum time to arrive was?

4am - 0940 (5hrs40)
6am - 1130 (5.5hrs)
7am - 1230 (5.5hrs)

My Mum has managed to get all 7 of ours (had to blag 4 season tickets of her friends in order to get us all there). She joined the queue just after 7, and was in the second block of the temp stand, 4th row. She got the tickets sometime in the last half hour.

God love her!

We all owe her so much more than just the coffee we promised her for the early start!

Cannot believe that to add insult to injury the vast majority of our paultry allocation are the £60 jobbies!

ERC are going to get a :censored: big piece of mine and many other's minds!

5 hrs 15min on the phone (although obviously it's a bit more random who gets through).
