Although Quotes
Selling out our season tickets is a great testament to the support we've received from White Sox fans in the past few months. Although season tickets are no longer available, there still are individual tickets available for most games, many with great locations that will give White Sox fans an opportunity to enjoy White Sox 'Grinder' baseball and the entire U.S. Cellular Field experience.

Couple Quotes
My dad was a diehard fan, ... We had season tickets from when I was about 5 to about 12 years old. I used to go to a couple of games a year. I still remember where the seats were, too, 15-yard line, on the scoreboard side, under the awning. So if it rained or whatever, we were always underneath.
-
Along Quotes
My family had season tickets to Arizona State games, so I would attend all those games, but I would also try to watch as many BYU games as possible. It's become sort of like the 'Rudy' story, growing up and going to BYU. Even though there were attractive offers from a lot of Pac-10 schools, in my heart I knew all along that this was where I wanted to be, that this was the right place for me.

Amount Quotes
I would definitely consider it higher than usual. April and May are usually slow times, with the exception of opening day. But it's not been like that. I would say it's double the amount we dealt with at this time last year. All of the season-ticket holders believe they have gold in their hands, so there are a lot more tickets available on the secondary market.

Autographs Quotes
I got to know him when he was a player and he had season tickets right next to our bench. I didn't know him just as a season-ticket holder but as a friend. It's a great loss to the sports world and Minnesota. He always had a smile on his face and cared about kids. He always took time to sign autographs and talk to kids and try to help them.

Closer Quotes
Frankly, I'm very excited about the prospects. As we get closer and closer, you see the interest level. I couldn't be happier about the exposure and we haven't even thrown a pitch. It's the first time we've had this event and we'll sell as many tickets as the Winter Olympics this year. That's a phenomenal accomplishment, as far as I'm concerned.
-
Buyers Quotes
From a revenue standpoint, it allows us to sell the tickets at individual ticket prices, but that being said, we want to maximize our ticket sales, and the way to do that is with season tickets. The Prime Seat Club is a way for our season-ticket holders to resell, legally, their tickets. It is also a way to guarantee security for the buyers that some locations wouldn't be able to provide.

Auction Quotes
If a child scored a 300 in reading last year and the score improved to 350 this year, the child and their parents would each receive the increased difference between the two scores in tickets to use as cash in an auction of many large-ticket items at the beginning of the next school year. The kids may use their tickets separately or combined with parents' to bid on items such as big-screen televisions, bicycles, DVD players and more.

Bad Quotes
Here's a bad luck story for you. On the day the tickets went on sale I had 10 tickets for the Friday and another 10 for the Monday of the final Test selected in the form on my computer screen all ready to be paid for. I then entered my credit card details pressed send - and The Oval's website crashed. I spent the next few hours trying to get back in to the site to no avail. When I finally got in the tickets had all gone - bah!

Airlines Quotes
History was made tonight as American Airlines gave away more than 20,000 free, round-trip tickets as part of the largest-ever airline ticket giveaway. We believe in rewarding people for their loyalty, and tonight these devoted fans went home with free American Airlines ticket vouchers. Each Mavericks fan here tonight will soon have the opportunity to experience American's extraordinary new service from Love Field, and we look forward to showing them our special brand of appreciation.

Board Quotes
We looked at Gov. Bush's appointments to the University of Texas Board of Regents, which is a particularly coveted post. It's valued because the university produces many of the state's leaders, the position is prestigious and high profile -- and it doesn't hurt that it comes with tickets to the 50-yard line of football games, which is no small consideration in football crazy Texas,

Blame Quotes
I think it's been blown way out of proportion. (My name was brought into this) because they might have known I was friends with Jeremy, but I didn't give him tickets to the bowl game. They're placing the blame on me like I'm the one who's doing all this crazy stuff, but it didn't happen like that.
-
Aspect Quotes
I think we looked at it from the aspect that this would be more beneficial to the charities. They would be able to raise more money up front, and it gives us the opportunity to sell more tickets. Last year, the sales period was from March to the end of June, and charities sold 60,000 tickets. With this expanded sales time, our request for tickets is already in excess of 80,000.

Appreciate Quotes
I will be there. I really appreciate what Mr. Tagliabue has done. He did so much for this city in keeping the team here. I really feel his retirement could hurt the city. I'm still wary of Mr. Benson. Most of the blame for what happened after the hurricane I would put on Tom Benson. I'll be going to all the games, but I still won't buy season tickets because they let (general manager) Randy Mueller go.

Beyond Quotes
Our breaking point for knowing whether it was a good promotion to do or not is whether we sold enough tickets to cover it. In the past we've looked at things very simply: We spent $2,000 for this promotion; that means we've got to sell 200 $10 tickets and anything else beyond that is gravy. There are times where we perhaps don't make everything back, but the publicity we've gotten, the exposure we've gotten, eases the loss.
-
Attached Quotes
That certainly was not our original intent, to say, 'Let's play chicken,' when all along, we were going to yank the blackout. We were serious enough about selling enough tickets that we attached a number to it. We didn't reach that number, but we got enough movement, combined with continuing this conversation about business involvement, that we felt we'd accomplished enough to raise the blackout.

Family Quotes
I was happy to be in the NFL, living the dream. I'd get to play in the preseason when Brett would play a series or two and I got to play a quarter and a half and my whole family would come to town for the game. They never wanted tickets for the playoff games or the regular-season games, just the preseason games.
