5ohhh Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 Hope this is the right section but has anyone ever called in and won these? I was lucky enough to do so earlier today but Rockville pike is a long haul for me...just wondering what section these could be in...im assuming 400's since the give away so many.

terpskins10 Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 I live in Rockville so I'll gladly take them off your hands if you don't want them. But seriously, I had a friend win tickets to the Texans game and he was up in the 400 level. Still worth it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
81+83+84=Posse Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 Who cares, free tickets are awesome no matter where you sit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hail2skins Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 I dunno.......free tix are nice but when I heard Sheehan advertising them during the past hour my mind thought of the thread that Mark started yesterday about the OVs in the upper deck that are listed as "visiting team returns." You still have to get to the stadium and that usually involves either a mile-long walk from the Metro or shelling out $35 to park. If you get there after that and find that your sitting in an area where your view is obstructed, I can see someone being pissed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsCrushCowboys Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 Congrats on the tickets! I would pay for the tickets and get free $8 beers, free $35 parking, free $14 cheesburgers and free misc $100 in other crap I usually spend! While there is really no "free" tickets, it is nice to get them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on what row. Usually they start becoming obstructed around row 15ish. Considering they're in the 200s and they were free, I'd say that there's a decent chance you might be obstructed.

Jofizz Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 I think it would be bad PR for 980 to give out obrstructeds, but thats just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skins98Orakpo Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 231 is in front of the scoreboard, so I would assume no obstructions. Should be full view lower level seats. Congrats and enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hail2skins Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 I remember 980 gave away a trip to Vegas. They put the winner up at the Excalibur, which is one of the crappier hotels on the Strip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5ohhh Posted November 23, 2010 Author Share Posted November 23, 2010 Thanks guys...i just did some research looks like im infront of the scoreboards somewhere...as long as I get to see a W! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could have a pole in your face or you might be deep in the "cave" and not be able to see how high a punt goes. It really depends. The latter really isn't ALL that bad. That being said, another poster did note that these seats are scoreboard seats so the OP should be just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vaskinfan Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 I won a pair of season tickets a couple of years ago - in the 400's on the visitor's side. Still had a blast though! Got parking passes from eBay and at the McDonald's, tailgated, took friends. Great year! Whoever said free isn't "free" was correct though. I had to sign a 1099 for the winnings. :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NattyBo Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 I can never seem to get through at all, let alone be the 9th caller. I live on Rockville Pike, too. Being a poor grad student sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
