Ticket Fiasco

After suspending the sale of World Series tickets this afternoon the Colorado Rockies announced tonight that the tickets for the three games scheduled to be played at Coors Field will again be put on sale online only at noon tomorrow, Tuesday October 23rd.  Fans will once again be directed to the Rockies website at www.coloradorockies.com.

“It’s been an extremely frustrating day for our fans and the entire Rockies’ organization,” said Keli McGregor, Rockies’ team president.  “Our website, and ultimately our fans and our organization, were the victim of an external, malicious attack that shut down the system and kept our fans from being able to purchase their World Series tickets.  Throughout the day we’ve evaluated all of our options, and we continue to believe that the online sale approach is the most fair and equitable method to distribute the tickets.  Our partners at MLB.com and Paciolan have fully assessed the situation and assured us that tomorrow’s online sale will go as originally planned.”

Unbelievable…so tomorrow, I'm actually going to try purchasing tickets. Not only would I love to attend a game, I'm also extremely curious as to how this entire online-only ticket purchasing process will finally play out. I'll post my report and impressions tomorrow.
