You should call your rep from February, as I believe that rep stays on your account. Also check your spam folder - I had an email in there that I received a few minutes before I selected my seats. It links to a very nice site with seat views, etc. It also contains a map that confirms the chart on this board from a couple of weeks ago is accurate.

One of the 'incentives' for seats at the new place was getting in early at the old place. If they are are just letting people essentially cut in line with their buddies it defeats all of that.


Even though I took advantage of it, and am glad my friend is able to sit near me, I agree with you. Doesn't seem fair. I'm not sure what the logic is. The kicker is that your friend or family member doesn't even need to be a season ticket holder. I could see them allowing you to allocate some of your 8 tickets to a friend or family member, but allowing a non-season ticket holder to buy tix on top of your 8, ahead of everybody else in line, is....well...I'd be upset if I was in later waves, to put it mildly.

I hope I didn't just create a lot of FUD in bringing this up, but I thought this represents a significant change in everybody's assumptions of how they are going about doing this. The whole experience has felt like a "black box" from beginning to end.

maxxx power wrote:I would like to ask some RFU folks here for perspectives/input. I am struggling now with the thought of continuing season tickets at the new place for a couple reasons.

1. I live in NorCal and sell preseason tix and 1-2 games during season due to constant travel to LA for games

2. The SSL cost (I am looking at the 4-5k range for 2 seats)

My struggle is a head (math) vs heart conflict. Math says if I went to 4 games a year with tix on secondary market I'd spend a total of about 11k-14k less over 3 years than if I bought season tix and went to say 6 games/yr. (this includes airfare)

As a lifelong Rams fan I think my heart is is louder than my head.

What I'd like to ask for are your perspectives/ feedback on what my advantages are to being a season tix holder at the level of ticket I'm thinking. What is my incentive?

Thanks.


Maxx,

I'm in the same boat. NorCal. Fly to the games. Fairly early wave original ticket buyer. I went into it planning on a 3-year plan with year-by-year option. Got a bonus year with the delay of Kroenkeland.

I enjoy going to the games. Taking one of my kids or family members. But my head always said "no" to the PSL idea. I won't have the tickets for 30 years. Once the new ticket process started my wife asked if I was going to do it. That opened the door to the heart more but I think my pragmatic side will win out.

It seems much of the Season Ticket holder bonuses are understandably regionally based. I just can't make a trip for a training camp ticket holder day. Those types of rally events etc just aren't feasible.

I'll just buy tickets to a couple games per season. The first few games will be tough. I'll feel like I'm missing out.

From what I've read about prior PSL programs people will want to bail. It might be available to buy from someone on a short sale if I ever change my mind.

Good luck on your choice.

GO RAMS!

Update, I'm sure most of you know ( I did not), you have 2 different reps. One for the Coliseum and one for the new stadium. I only had the Coliseum one so I am getting bounced around a bit. Awaiting a call back from the new one.

It is sounding that as long as people are forking over money, the whole first come first served is more of a guideline. I should have learned my lesson from the Coliseum renovation process...

As far as the friend thing, I would think their logic is if you go in on it with a friend, that just doubles their tix sales as well as makes you a free sales Rep. It also would enhance your experience as you will be going with friends/family that otherwise would not or be seating somewhere else. I get it, but still don't like it.

Great response. You hit all the points I have been struggling with. Taking my 7 yo son to most games is one of the best things Ive ever experienced.

But the reasons you hesitate are the same for me. If I lived in LA or if the Rams were up here in NorCal it's a no-brainer to buy.

Thanks for your input.

I signed up for 2 seats in the $3k SSL category yesterday and as I reflect upon it, it was more of an impulsive decision because my Rams partner wanted to get seats. I had been waffling on whether or not I wanted that long term commitment vs. just buying a few games each year. I'm now thinking I will keep the seats for 5-10 years and then try to find an exit strategy via SSL seat sale and hope that I can recover a reasonably close value to the SSL's remaining life. Our seats are in row 1 so that should help when it comes time for resale.

Maybe you can partner up with another RFU board member and share a pair of seats??

I should have partnered with you. I am looking for front row in the 1k-4k range. I am in second wave. All the sales rep needs is my name and email to send the contract, we would have no ties into our contracts as we sign separate ones according to my rep.

If anyone else is coming up looking in my range let me know! I am looking for a total of 4 tickets.

This is the message I just got from my sales rep. He confirmed I was in the first wave the first go-round (I had the invite for the first day they opened to the public), but 🤷🏻‍♀️

“I do not have details for when your wave will begin, but it should be coming up soon…stay tuned!

Our Club Seat Buyers have the first opportunity to add on additional premier/reserved seats so that is what is happening right now.”

My take is many of the individuals and companies that bought the higher priced club seats (higher SSL / higher p/game ticket price) saw these lower priced premier/reserved seats and complained. In order to appease these priority clients, they offered the option to buy additional seats for their respective accounts since cancelling the contract was not an option. Take a look at the current PSL prices for the Cowboys (www.pslsource.com). The Rams seat options are competitively priced. Horns Up!

I emailed my rep and asked if there were any row 1 seats in the $1k SSL sections still available and he said the lowest available row is now row 9 :shock2: I'm surprised they have sold rows 1-8 already since they just started opening up the non-club seats a week ago. Hopefully they didn't cut some deal with big corporate buyers and give them blocks of seats.
