Season Tickets Mailed?

[djcuse]

Checked my Purolator tracking # from last season. Is was right around this time that they mailed out tickets,
I'm guessing with final payments due today, we will start to see tickets being mailed out early next week, which will undoubtedly lead
to many of us looking like Jimmy Fallon when the Purolator truck arrives!

[Ricky_Portugal]

spoke to my rep today and the said nothing till closer to the end of aprill i hope she was wrong

[German21]

they sent out an email not too long ago saying towards the end of april

[Joe Kool]

They like to wait until the last minute to add some extra excitement.

[ryan]

They aren't here yet. Couple more weeks.

[Ricky_Portugal]

It's funny because last year they were mailed out April 10

[GreatWhiteNorth]

They would not have been mailed yet. The final payment for those who used the payment plan was yesterday. They would not have sent packages out to those with partially paid accounts, and wouldn't send them out in different batches.

Last year, I put all the "tickets" on my phone, and used electronic entry. That, with a presto card in my pocket, can't say enough how convenient that is. I noticed that in the SSH account manager, there is an "Mobile Entry" icon.

[bgnewf]

would love to have a card that has my season seat loaded on it. easy peasy.

CFL season tickets are going digital and if you want to pay 25$ for collector’s edition paper tickets

I could see MLS doing this

I'd pay that.

[Joe Kool]

They sent them out in the past without having everyone paid up. They just didn't give us access to the unpaid tickets in Account Manager until all the payments were in.

[nascarguy]

I'd pay that.not me and it is pissing people off 25$ is too much to ask.

[nascarguy]

yup I think we will get them about 2 to 3 weeks before the home opener game

[Captain]

Last year the tickets came about a week earlier than MLSE was stating they would come.

Ahhh that explains it then.
The Ottawa Fury of the NASL (owned by Ottawa Sports and Entertainment Group ... that's OSEG ... think ML$E light ... they own the CFL REDBLACKS) gave us digital tickets this season on a swipe card.
They will probably be able to use it to track purchases at the OSEG store as well as how many of us use it as a free bus ride to and from the stadium on game days.

[eustacchio]

NYRB used to have swipe cards.

[OgtheDim]

Just as long as they don't demand we use phones.

Whitecaps seasons are like that. swipe card that gets you in and is your discount card for buying merch at the stadium. Also a lot of restaurants give discounts if you present that card (I think), I know the southsider card gets you discount at doolins

[Ivy]

MLSE is too profit oriented to do a swipe card type system. That form of system makes it nearly impossible to scalp or give away tickets, meaning less butts in seats, meaning less beers and hotdogs sold.

How so? The tickets can still be printed or forwarded through the account manager.

I was thinking the same thing. I sell off about a third of my seasons every year. People like to have actual tickets in their hands.

The Hamilton Tiger-Cats are going digital tickets this coming season but they aren't even issuing a collector entry card. You can either print your tickets via the Account Manger or use the mobile phone option. They are offering "Collectors Tickets" for $25 per season ticket set.

well you do both, you provide season seat holders with cards. and they still use the ticket manager to sell/print tickets. And then you have all none season seat holder tickets as normal.

[eustacchio]

It would be a lot cheaper to send out cards than it would be to print/mail tickets. Oh, we made the playoffs, cool. That game is now loaded on your card.

I don't know how much MLSE makes off of the concessions either. I made the same argument at work and was shut down pretty quick.

[Ivy]

I was thinking you guys are refering to the ManU type card. There is no option to print or receive a physical ticket. If I wanted to give my ticket to a game to a friend of mine, I have to give them my physical card to use, and they would return it to me after.

Certain places don't allow you to buy tickets without having an account associated with it (particular the FA), so if you buy four tickets for your buddies you have to assign the tickets to them before you can complete the purchase.

I don't think that has anything to do with the card itself.

Each team can set up their system differently. I'm a Jays season ticket holder and they gave us a physical entry card but you can still print and forward tickets through the account manager as well as use your phone for digital ticket entry.

[Pint]

Have people used the phone entry at bmo? Does it work well? I generally print off my tickets but would rather not have to if possible

[kodiakTFC]

A million times. A small issue is sometimes their readers take some time to read the bar code. I usually just enlarge it and its good to go. They're also use to it so no worries there.

They do it at Barca, I had a season ticket card thingy for the Champions league semi finals in 2012 against Chelsea, just gave it back after the game

Ye, they work well. I did it all of last year.

[Mateo1985]

Ye, they work well. I did it all of last year.

yeah I only printed like 2 tickets last year two.

[Captain]

So I had a purolator notice on my door last night. I was pretty excited that my tickets had arrived. And now very disappointed to see no one talking about their ticket package. I haven't ordered any thing so what the heck could it be? Whatever it is, it won't be as good as tickets.

[TFC_Allez]

Last season I downloaded the ticket PDF and just showed my phone screen at the gate. No problems with scanning. Worked out well.

^ We 'heard' tickets will be sent out during the last week of April?

I just checked my account to see if they had done anything and mine says 'shipping label created'
mind you the odd thing it still showed last years dates below of when I received those tix lol

it's a starting point :scarf:

ticket sending tickets? just send me a season holders card that i can show to Go transit for a free ride on game day and to the beer tents for 5% off :>

Like that idea!! Even 50 % off GO on game day.

[pdogg]

Like that idea!! Even 50 % off GO on game day.

50% would be a nightmare as everyone would have to line up at the ticket booths to get the discount. Free ride home on the GO/TTC would be the better option - same difference but encourages fans to drink more knowing their ride back is taken care of.

[eustacchio]

While we're wishing for different types of ST cards, why no incorporate it with Presto - the discount off the GO/TTC trip can be automatically calculated during the two hours before and after the game.

[Derko]

That would be far too much for thought on GO transit's part, you know the one's who haven't figured out the pedestrian bridges over the tracks at the Exhibition station. A season holder card is a great idea, come on MLSE get in the game. no pun intended

[Pint]

2 hours before and 2 hours after would need to be extended for us pregame/post game types

[eustacchio]

You can't make everyone happy and I can't imagine they would open the window much wider - but all day would be nice.

[Mateo1985]

The GO transit is doing it for Toronto Rock right? That lacrosse thingy. I wonder how does that work for them? Whatever deal they got going with GO is the team's initiative I believe. Not the GO's. I wonder if MLSE would feel like investing into it since crowds are almost a guarantee for TFC anyway. Given the good weather and match up anyway

That appears to be for individual game tickets - and honestly, the volume of Rock fans to TFC fans is drastically different - and there are only nine home games - and it's advertised on the Go website - and I had to look up all of this information (including where they play, I didn't know it was the ACC).

They play at ACC? Really? GO transit wise they're not at a lose for sure. Way less fans, way less games. Doing that for TFC games would be a lot more impact-full for them.

[C.Ronaldo]

fine, ill give uber a call for uber game day (patent pending)

[Steelers7]

Looks like I'll have my tickets on Monday :scarf:

[Red CB Toronto]

I just got an email from TFC with a tracking number.

[Discostu81]

Slightly off-topic but still to do with season tickets...does anybody know if season tickets can be transferred to somebody else? I've been buying mine from a guy my wife works with as he doesn't go anymore and everything is still in his name. I get the advantage of a lower price than if I were to get my own now which is nice but I sure would like them in my name.

Yeah It's doable (or at least used to be). I got my seasons in 2011 off a guy, but the next year he didn't want them so we talked to the rep and had it put into my name. It was a new account number for me, but the legacy pricing was extended to me. Who knows if they will do that now. I remember we had to fax some forms in and it was a bit of a run around as the rep had to get approval or whatever and it seemed to keep getting delayed. But it worked out in the end.

It's worth a shot.

Thanks, appreciate the reply. I'll ask him to get in touch with his rep.

[Steelers7]

as of 8:12am this morning my tix are on the truck for delivery :flare:

[fergiejr]

Just got mine. So excited. Is it May 7th yet??

[Justin10000]

Is that "TEN" in the pic a metal pin?

[Mateo1985]

So that scarf is NOT blue? Thank god!!!

[Cas87]

There is some from the looks of it. Lower left hand corner.

[Cashcleaner]

Courier just arrived! Two scarves?!

Pics incoming...

[TFC Tifoso]

just got mine.....Steeles & Airport area....

[fergiejr]

One tassle on the scarf end is blue. There is a blue square there too along the tassle end.

[fergiejr]

Is that "TEN" in the pic a metal pin?

There is a lapel pin and also a metal badge on the scarf that say TEN. Also on the other end of the scarf is a metal TFC badge.

[T-boy]

I wonder if there will be a season when we get something different from a scarf?!

They are nice and all, but I have one drawer at home that has just TFC scarfs in! I don't know what to do with them all?! I'd like a hat next year just to have one year different!

[Eastend]

Received at Front & Bay.

Here it is. I should have took a picture of the back of the scarf, sorry. Because honestly, I think it's the one of the best we've ever seen.

[TFC07]

Just got mine delivered in Brampton.

I have had mine delivered in Markham, just waiting to get. You can log into your account manager, then go to edit your profile - the tracking number is listed there.

I'm happy it doesn't seem to have much blue on it. The little corner there is ok with me I guess. Have yet to see it with my own eyes though

Thanks for the pic. The blue part of the scarf kind of looks like a manufacturing mistake to me from first glance but maybe I will change my mind when I see it in person sometime this afternoon.

[Red CB Toronto]

So those are pins that we we put on the scarf?

[Ivy]

Who do I sue after I get wacked in the head with a metal pin attached to the spinning scarf behind me?

The person behind you, MLSE, City of Toronto and MLS

[Ivy]

What about the scarf manufacturer?

[billyfly]

Got mine just now. Junction area

[bgnewf]

I live in the Ossington/Bloor West area - The Purolater guy came just before 9:00 AM.

[Oldtimer]

What about the scarf manufacturer?

Any lawyer will tell you to sue everyone you can, in the odds that one of them will be found liable.

[Oldtimer]

Mine apparently arrived at home, I'll be unwrapping it tonight!

[Ivy]

Got mine, Stoney Creek.
As usual, quality stuff. The mental pins come off the scarf pretty easy, so I'm happy ;)

[Pint]

What about the scarf manufacturer?

Go for it but they are only liable if they put the pins on the scarf themselves.

[Wagner]

Just received an automated call from Purolator saying my tix are ready now for pick up.

[ExiledRed]

That blue tassle is the thin end of the wedge.

[OgtheDim]

I like the inside of the scarf - the grey bit. The X thing is kinda lame as nobody wears a scarf like that in reality.

3 pins, two big ones and a little un in a bag. As for the blue tassle - meh.

[Eastend]

On the shipping label it says From Toronto Football Club. Hasn't the team always maintained FC stands for FC and nothing more? Not that I'm complaining.

They've been using the full name for a few years now, at least from the Winter era.

IDEAS:
- display in a large frame, a shelf, or rack
- sow them together and make a nice warm blanket

Hats - We get toques at last game of the season. A cap may be a nine change. Season 1 they gave a white cap instead of the toque.

[SuperTCP]

My thoughts exactly. My Season 10 metal thing fell off already, I can see these flying around at the home opener. Will to painful to get hit.

I've been toying with the idea of sewing together a large scarf blanket. Saw someone here do it and it seemed to work out well. Besides, I'm sure my girlfriend would hate, so that's a good reason to do it.

I did it. I have 3. Season Seat holder scarves, Special games & Supporter scarves, and then the Promotional scarves blanket. My boys and I use when watching games in basement and cold game days.

[Blindside16]

I really like this years scarf. I have no issue with the blue in it as long as it doesn't grow next season(s). May 7th can't come soon enough. Has anyone heard of any pre-game ceremony or celebration for the 10th season?

I'll cuddle you in it.

[Parkdale]

Remember when the ONLY place to see the new scarves was on the forums? And now my social media news feed is filled with scarves. Funny how times change.

[105]

When I picked up my seats, there were two other guys in front of me picking up their seats as well. It was like a little get together. Hahah.

[ExiledRed]

If there were no Argos, there would be no blue tassle.
When the wedge widens, it'll be red/blue kits and red/blue seats.

[Parkdale]

Hahaha.... NICE!! It says "Parkdale" right on the grey ticket box. I know it has nothing to do with me... But it's a nice touch.
