Tickets Quotations | Page 2

I have literally thousands of requests for tickets for the quarter-final. We expect about 1,200 people for the match against Russia but the demand for quarter-final tickets is huge.

I can just as easily see a scenario where we're 2-0 and everyone's booking their tickets to the Rose Bowl,

I can't imagine a better date for college students, especially because student tickets are just $8.

Friday, from 3-6 p.m., the players will help pump gas, clean windshields and hand out free tickets to people at all four Holiday stations in Marquette County.

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.

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.

I get enough adulation from my family. I get enough phone calls and asking for tickets that I need. They're a little more happy this year, I think.

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.

If anything, it should make people more aware that there are still tickets available, for those who are interested in going. If there are still tickets available on Monday, I'm interested to see what kind of walk-up interest we get.

If a patron chooses to purchase tickets through a third party, they do so at their own risk.

I don't think it's a very good idea. It's gonna take too much time, the price of tickets are gonna rise and plus they should trust us. It's gonna be too many restrictions on us having fun.

For the state tournaments, some of them were in here Tuesday wanting their tickets and we didn't start selling until Wednesday.

I don't solicit money from my employees, ... I indicated earlier that we will not require them to buy fundraising tickets, to sell fundraising tickets or do political work.

I don't want people getting mad at me if they can't get in, but 300 is our limit. I'm amazed at how fast these tickets are going. People really want to see this guy.

I don't think we're going to be the kind of band that start playing stadiums or arenas. Even if we could sell that many tickets we really don't want to. We really like playing the venues of 2,000 to 5,000.

Having so many big winners during a two-day period is always exciting for us as well as our players. We encourage all of our players to check their tickets and see if they've won a prize, regardless of the amount.

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!

What I hear from those who buy season tickets is that there are shows on our schedule that they would never have gone to had they not bought the package. But once they went, they were glad they did.

I admire their enthusiasm for the movie, but as it's been proven in the past, everyone who wants to see this or any other film will be able to get tickets for it.

We may release 300 to 400 more tickets either (today) or Sunday.

Having a jackpot in excess of $200 million makes it a very exciting time to be in California. The draw is Friday night but buy your tickets early unless you enjoy standing in line with your neighbors.

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,

He understands that people work hard to buy tickets to see him. He's them with a racket, and they are him with a necktie.

If tickets are too high, people will drive to Houston. We suffer because of our proximity to Houston.

If the game becomes hotter and hotter, they can't buy the tickets at a price that allows them to make a profit or break even. They might have to buy tickets at a loss. If it's just some guy working out of his house, he might decide to not get the tickets.

He hooked me up with tickets and helped me get some stuff signed. He's a great guy, very down to earth.

He's had bronchitis all week long and had hoped it would get better, but it didn't, ... All tickets will be honored next week.

If it's a choice between spending $25 for tickets to a movie and almost that much again for drinks and popcorn, it's understandable people are opting instead to buy a movie on DVD for $15, even if it's no-frills.

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.

There is an active and thriving black market in every city in the world for sporting tickets and we have to stop the abuse.

His sister is coming to the show. That's where our comp tickets are going.

My wife saw it on Oprah, and she told me I needed to do something. I was going to give him my jersey, and then the White Sox really stepped up. Any time a guy does that, sells World Series tickets to help others, that is an amazing thing. I thought that was awesome.

I watched him. He was on the edge of his seat. He was smiling and his eyes were really wide. I just got goose bumps. I kept the tickets because that's one of my favorite 'Star Wars' memories.

I went to a festival pretending to work as a journalist to get free tickets and interview people I really admired. I remember one of these people was Guillermo del Toro.

Let me put it this way. There are no tickets left. It's sold out.

Loews Cineplex is dedicated to providing the best movie-going experience to our patrons with state-of-the art technology in world-class theaters. Given the richness of entertainment we offer, we feel that our tickets are priced at a fair value for everyone to enjoy the show.

Look at ticket prices to the Rose Bowl or NCAA Final Four -- they're pretty high, even though those players don't get paid. If it was player salaries driving, the tickets would be much cheaper.

Some of the people who bought tickets told us to keep the money.

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.

Surpassing 20,000 season tickets is a tremendous milestone for the Chicago White Sox. The support of our fans has been overwhelming, and it allows us the resources to continue to improve our on-field product.

People in the airline industry don't want agencies out and they don't want them in, ... They don't care. They want to distribute airline tickets in the most cost-effective way possible. If the agencies don't add value, they will do it themselves.

I see a facilities update later in the meeting. Maybe we can talk about that then. I don't see tickets anywhere on the agenda.

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.

Our job is to give them an exciting product and make their tickets more affordable, which we're doing, and get them back to sample the product.

It is estimated that 20 per cent of all 1.5 million tickets sold so far are to visitors to Melbourne.

Right now people are willing to be patient mainly because most of them already bought their tickets. But if this drags on, it's hard for me to see people pushing each other out of the way to book advance tickets on Northwest.

Packaging tickets with other services is not permitted.

Our state representative helped with tickets to that.

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.

Our fans really stepped up for us; I thought they were great. I think we had about 3,500 fans there, and those who couldn't come still bought tickets and sent in money to help us. I feel really good about the whole experience.

I was in his kitchen about a month ago telling him, 'You've got to have another dinner for your fund because it's your legacy,' ... He was always scared he wouldn't sell any tickets but the darn place was overflowing all the time. It was a testimony to this guy.

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.

It does make coming in the door a lot faster if you buy tickets ahead of time.

It got too expensive to put on, so the tickets got too expensive. And the food got too expensive. The Italian Street Fair didn't have the old charm. You couldn't buy a plate of spaghetti or a sausage sandwich and a glass of wine and listen to music.

I think we've got a box in one of the suites up there, ... It's going to be full. Then I got a bunch of tickets for out in the crowd, too. I've got a bunch of people coming to the game.

It appears from the Live 8 experience they can do something about it, because they obviously stopped Live 8 tickets being sold. As JK Rowling's representatives, we would very much appreciate it if they took steps to prevent the activities she has referred to.

I think it's always hard to find great roles, no matter what age you are. So I always say to people, 'You have to remember that Hollywood is in the business of making movies that they can sell tickets to; they're not in the business of finding great roles for actors.'

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.

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.

Tickets sold for both Thanksgiving and Christmas are ahead of where they were last year, so it looks like people have tried to book early to beat some of the price increases, ... A key message for customers would probably be to book now for the holidays and not delay to avoid further price increases as the airlines' inventory gets short.

We had one where he was a little upset. He thought he was being encouraged, in one of the establishments, because the bar maid was giving him an empty beer bottle to use as an ashtray. Otherwise, they take their tickets and stub their cigarettes and take it like anything else.

You know if I were writing tickets right now it would cost you $500 for holding your child in your lap.

We haven't sold out tickets as quickly since we were in one of the national championship games. Our fans certainly were on a roller coaster this year.

My better sense tells me (that many) stoplight tickets issued to metro Des Moines residents and unsuspecting visitors will generate some discontent, if not serious outrage.

My brother came through for me. He has season tickets for the White Sox, through his company, so we could get extra tickets that way.

My club reggae shows were going very good. Every show I did was selling out, ... Barry said 'Why don't you take a bunch of these bands and take them up to Red Rocks?' I said 'Barry, that's never going to work. There's no way to sell that many tickets for reggae.'

We neither had the population or economic base that would support a team, ... The city didn't have the kind of wealth it needed. It didn't have a large enough middle class to pay the type of prices for NFL tickets ... some of that story has changed.

We neither had the population or economic base that would support a team. The city didn't have the kind of wealth it needed. It didn't have a large enough middle class to pay the type of prices for NFL tickets ... some of that story has changed.

When I first heard about it, I was interested. But the tickets are a little pricey, and there's an Asylum show the night before, so I may be spending Sunday night catching up on some sleep.

We are not seeing any drive diversion currently, and we are continuing to see our customers in Cincinnati buy tickets and fly our airplanes to take advantage of all the nonstop destinations we serve.

We haven't even started our main push yet, so that is even more encouraging. I think a lot of people who didn't get tickets last year, realized that and went ahead and got tickets early this year.

We continue to hear there's this pent-up demand for tickets and have never been able to test it.

We have some people this year who bought a Fan Forward for George Mason. They may have bought ticket rights for $5, thinking that this was the year the stars were aligned in their favor.

We've gotten a lot of great support from the community. Our boosters club and our quarterback club purchased the tickets for us and Zach Wade took care of our hotel accommodations for Friday night in Lebanon. We're thankful for all the support we receive.

We have a lot of secondary market problems in the U.K.; it's really bad there. And lots of artists are starting to participate in it, because they put the tickets up at a certain price, then the tickets get marked up by the secondary sellers, and someone else gets twice as much as you.
