If you have one available, LMK.

Anyone know when they'll open up the seat upgrade process?

There are a few in section 236 and 237. I currently have row 5 in 135 - is it worth it to go backwards to 237, row 6? From everything I hear on this forum, ppl love the 200 level. Is the energy the same? I imagine the sight lines are much improved being somewhat higher, but there's just something special about row 5 (even if I have to stand for most of the game). Opinions?

Chess, this seems to be a play I'd be interested in making. Are they requiring you to sign on for multiple years or just for next year?

That sucks, Chess. I feel for ya, bro. I shot off an email and am expecting the same results.

Insane. I have no beef with the TO - they've been nothing but nice to me - but this just seems backwards. What seats are these UL upgrades moving to if none of the LL seats have been moved? The only thing I can guess is that folks that haven't renewed. Keep us posted, if you don't mind. I think I'm going to call the TO (again) and ask when the LL upgrade process will be done.

How does the TO do UL to LL upgrades BEFORE LL upgrades? Maybe I misunderstood what you're saying...

I think it's a little different - in one scenario you have no seats whereas in the other you're giving up seats for a possible better location. Though I get your bigger point.

I kinda agree with you - when I first became an STH I refused to pay for an upgrade before finding out where I'd go. Then a couple of years ago, I bit the bullet and called after the upgrades were done (and even though I had said no upgrades) asked if there were any seats left and upgraded. That way, at least I knew where I'd end up and moved to the LL. Now, I'm back to the mercy of the upgrade system, but at least I am in the LL - just hoping to move towards midfield.

I just spoke with someone at the ticket office and they said that it "Looks like you didn't get upgraded, but the process is still underway and won't be completed until the end of June. At that time you'll know if you upgraded or not." So very upfront and nice, but not all that reassuring that I would be upgraded since you'd need to upgrade the folks in the LL before upgrading folks in the UL (so they can take the vacated seats). We're hearing of a few folks from the UL getting upgraded... Your theory about the visitor's side seems right to me (no evidence to support that). Just from folks on the board, it seems that 2nd and 3rd year folks are getting corner end zone on visitor's side instead of starting in the middle of the end zone... ---------- Post added June-13th-2012 at 01:41 PM ---------- I never knew that. Good to know!

This would totally stink since it seems that a lot of folks are moving from the UL to LL and not just end zone but corners or sideline! Does anyone think that being on the Visitor's side makes it easier to move towards the 50?

No changes in my invoice, either.

Ha - I had the same reaction. The minimum quantity got me as well!
