2. Conference Semis 1st Leg Sunday Oct 30
or
Conference 2nd Leg Sunday Nov 6

3. Eastern Conference Championship 1st Leg Tuesday Nov 22

If I remember correctly they only offered the 'wild card' match and the conference semi as they would have been played so close together. This was before we knew we would have to play the knockout game on the road. Can't remember how much they were though.

If I recall south end seats were about $50 each.

Edit...Maybe I was thinking of the price of a pair now that I see the posts below me. Old brain....whatcha gonna do.

Link to playoff tickets came with renewal. Not necessary to renew seasons to get playoffs but renewing does reduce the price

I am super pleased by this. I'm renewing anyways, but it shows Manning's new way of managing things that coercion is not being used. It's the exact opposite of the Ransom Packs of the previous management.

My seat in 111 was $40 last year (for the game that never happened). $65 and $70 as Og mentions above. Don't see a ticket for the play in. Guess management believes we won't finish lower than 2nd place.

Looked at my invoices --- Last year they were $35 and $35 (Home Playoff Game 1 and Game 2) and this year they were $60 (ECQF) and $65 (ECSF). I am not shocked at that little doubling of the price; but I am shocked at my ST only going up $1 per ticket (using the simple math) or factored with the 20 game price for 21 games about 14 cents per seat.....pleasantly shocked..... ;)

I talked to a rep, and these are tickets for the knock-out match, assuming we finish 3-4, and the home game of the aggregate eastern semi.

If we finish 1-2 and get a bye, we will be refunded for the first match, or can likely apply the amount to buying tickets for the home game of the aggregate eastern final.

Can I just say that I don't understand exactly how we can possibly have "clinched" when we lead the seventh place team by 13 points with 5 games to go?

I mean it's 99.9% sure we are in... but DCU and NE don't meet, they can both get full points the rest of the way.

Yes, it looks like MLS screwed up a bit, we haven't actually clinched yet. 99.9% is off a bit though. Apparently we have a 0.000000812% chance of not making the playoffs at the moment.

My section 120 (Medium Grey) playoff ticket prices (assuming this includes the "up to" 20% SSH discount):

EC QF: $75
EC SF: $80

Not convinced about the inevitability of sell outs. Hard to imagine the casual fan will be lining up to pay more than that for an evening game in November.

It's an interesting question. Tough to know.

I think, if they play well down the the stretch, and the Jays don't have a deep run, this team will generate a fair bit of media buzz/interest, and playoff games will sell out.

If they wind up in the knockout round, no way will that sell out, because that will mean they haven't played well down the stretch.

Upper Light Grey Playoffs - 60 (ECQF)/65 (ECSF) /70 (ECF) for Early Bird STH

Interesting that the gap grows quite a bit between these and lower light grey once you get to the ECF - going from a $5 difference to a $15 difference ($70 vs $85) for STH (.....and a $23 difference for the public for the ECF $86 vs $109)

TFC list the seats as Eastern Conference Quarter and Semi Finals but MLS doesn't have a conference quarter final, unless you count the knockout round.

Knockout Round: E3 vs E6 & E4 vs E5
Eastern Semi: E1 vs Lower Seed Winner & E2 vs Higher Seed Winner
Eastern Final: The Winners
MLS Cup

So what are they asking us to pay for right now????

From looking at the break down in my account manager everyone is paying for the Knockout Round (Conference Quarters) and the Conference Semi Final.
Provided we don't play in the Knockout Round, we may get our tickets moved up to Conference Semi and Final Tickets (but this is MLSE so who knows).

Got in touch with a rep. Seems even though account manager says deadline is Sep 30 for the current invoice (the 20% discount deadline as per the email/renewal site), the price shown is the 30% off.

The price didn't change after I paid for my season seats. Which makes me think you can get the full discount without renewing (not that any of you will do that).

Rep explained that the amount of the invoice will go up after Sep 23 to reflect the 20% discount. My contention is either discount is wrong or the due date is wrong in it's current form.

Since we have access to the full price scheme we can see that only yellows are getting that sort of discount, the rest are not hitting it. I guess that makes the above a moot point.

Odd, should have been $310 for a pair to both games. Hmm, or $350 a pair after the early bird period ended.

Ah, that's it. The early period to buy tickets has passed, so it's gone up from $310 ($75+$80)*2 ... to $350 ($80+$95)*2.

Wow, the increase in that second playoff game is steep!

My tickets weren't to badly priced, being in 112 you get pretty cheap season tickets compared to many other sports, however playoffs 2 games are now about 1/3 of the whole season. And many other sections the prices get pretty steep when playoff tickets cost 1/3 of your season, also when you consider all us season ticket holders got discount prices for playoffs compared to what the general public tickets will go for.....they might have gone to steep for non season ticket holders to bother buying playoffs. Might not be sell outs come playoffs. I guess we will see closer to the dates.

If it wasn't for the choke in the last two games of the season or the disaster in the play-in game, we would have been able to see the first ever home playoff game for $45.

Also we are guaranteed a home playoff date (knockout round) based on math:

43+6=49 (But TFC has tie-breaker)

There are still lots of seats available. Given the excitement with Giovinco (despite our end of season slide) and our first home playoff game, I was expecting better sales. Price is most likely a factor (as are the Jays).

The night game, if TFC play in the first round, that game will have poor attendance.

The conference semi final, if the weather forecast looks decent, you will see a tremendous surge in demand in the last 3 or 4 days.

There are still lots of seats available. Given the excitement with Giovinco (despite our end of season slide) and our first home playoff game, I was expecting better sales. Price is most likely a factor (as are the Jays).

Toronto FC isn't the Leafs. Toronto FC isn't the Jays.
There are roughly 30,000 seats to be sold at BMO Field against an unknown opponent on an unknown night.
Just had a quick look at Ticketmaster. Appears 80-85% of seats are already sold for both hypothetical playoff matches.
That's pretty good given the current climate and the international break and limited marketing.

^^ With what Kurt put above, that sounds like good sales considering the game may actually be on the 27th for us (see below from what I put in the Jays thread).

Looking at what is scheduled (both officially and hypothetically) it would be a busy night. Thinking MLSE and the City may ask MLS to schedule separately from the rest.


The main thing about October 26th is that the City of Toronto may ask for the TFC game to be moved to Thursday just for traffic flow.

The hypothetical schedule for the 26th:

7pm Raptors v. Cleveland - ACC
7:30pm TFC playoff game
7:30pm Marlies home game
8pm Jays World Series Game

Unfortunately, other than the TFC game, the other three are locked into their dates and time (ACC due to hockey the next night, MLB schedule locked in for TV, and Ricoh as the Marlies need to get out for the Royal Winter Fair).

Moving TFC to the 27th (as the 27,500 - 30,000 people too) would just make the traffic/transit and flow of people downtown much easier to handle (for the infrastructure and Toronto Police).

I completely agree, most of the general public sale will be in the last couple days before the game. The thing is with having 30,000 seats available there never will be an urgency to buy tickets the moment they go in sale like the Raptors, Jays and Leafs. I also would curious what percentage of SSH actually picked up their playoff tickets or are waiting?

I think the only variable is the Jays. I think TFC are probably willing to go head to head with the Raps (there is always something on, the Leafs play on the 27th!)... but it's the 7M viewers for a possible Jays WS game that is the problem.

Based on Ticketmaster, ticket sales for a potential opening round playoff knockout game for the middle week have been quite good. Now I know we have been skeptical of the availability that TM shows in the past but I have huge doubt they would be doing this to create scarcity this close to the game.

i was saying weeks ago they over priced these playoffs for many fans outside of the hardcore supporter type fans. And in weather is colder now (Toronto fans can be whiners when it comes to chilly or rainy weather) Plus a Wednesday night mid week game, I think we will be lucky to hit 25k ticket sales I think. Also probably such little coverage by media so many of Toronto don't know about TFC playoffs. If we make it further in the playoffs I think ticket sales will increase hopefully.

Remember, this time tickets for SSH's and the general public (via the non-exclusive Insider) have gone on sale at the same time.

All the SSH tickets are held back from public sale as they have first right of refusal on their seats, which is why so few were available to general sale. It's likely why nothing in the lower deck was available (although I suspect some of those are being held back for the non-discounted "public" sale)

Last two games it was pretty obvious that lots of SSH's didn't buy their playoff seats, so there were a lot available to the general public, including supporters end. This time around I doubt that will happen.

That said, watching Ticketmaster after the SSH deadline passes might prove fruitful, but I suspect any left will go quickly.

But he's busy and probably hasn't tried yet. So now it seems all extra tickets for SSH'ers are gone?! That sucks.

I may have to take my daughter to Montreal if I want to give her a chance to catch a playoff game. Maybe not a bad idea anyway, but too bad she won't be able to experience the amazing atmosphere at BMO Field.

PS And we know there are a fair number of season tickets held by scalpers (or resold to scalpers). I'm sure they grabbed all the extra tickets they could. And TFC probably didn't make too many available in the first place. If sales are going well, they know they can make more money selling to the general public w/o a discount, + TicketBastard fees etc.

Supporters Section tickets for Montreal will be only available to RPB members (or members of another group that they allow in). Membership has it's privileges. If you are not a member, you will have to buy from the Impact wherever you can get it.

If you want to try to get spare tickets from a member who can't go on the 30th, try the ticket trader section. Odds are fairly low, though. DO NOT POST IN THIS SECTION. http://forums.redpatchboys.ca/showthread.php?39673-Nov-30-7PM-TFC-vs-Impact-conference-finals&p=1818537#post1818537

Toronto FC more or less sold out of 10,000 available tickets this morning. Season seat holders (approx. 20,000) have until Wed. to purchase.

Maybe. But there were unsold seats for NYCFC game 1. To go from that to selling out in 12 hours is possible, but not obvious, imho

I think they are very confident that they can sellout the 30K in proper seats at BMO. It's the 8000 temporary bleacher seats, and the pricing of those bleacher seats, that is in play here. Get the scarcity meter set right and you can get $75 each for most of those. Get it wrong, and you'll sell 3000 of them for $30 each.

I also suspect they will hold quite a few tickets back, as part of a 2017 new SSH offer, ie sign up for 2017 and we'll give you the Nov 30 (http://forums.redpatchboys.ca/x-apple-data-detectors://3) game (the Raps have done quite a bit of this). Some of those will come back into ticketmaster

There will be 35-36K, maybe even more at BMO no problem. The temporary grandstand in the south end holds 6K from my understanding. I could see them even selling some standing room only tickets after that's gone. No doubt this will be a hot ticket, will need to act fast.

Maybe. But there were unsold seats for NYCFC game 1. To go from that to selling out in 12 hours is possible, but not obvious, imho

I think they are very confident that they can sellout the 30K in proper seats at BMO. It's the 8000 temporary bleacher seats, and the pricing of those bleacher seats, that is in play here. Get the scarcity meter set right and you can get $75 each for most of those. Get it wrong, and you'll sell 3000 of them for $30 each.

What do you think will be at play in the scarcity meter, along the lines of truely understanding the real demand for tickets? Don't you think a packed Big O in Montreal with the media coverage that will come with will help create buzz and interest in the return leg here? Lots to ponder.

TFC has 24 days here. The value of having BMO be "sold out" on day one is high, in terms of selling bleachers or new 2017 SSH seats.

But it could just be a wave of interest. I wouldn't bet on that, but it is possible.

I also suspect they will hold quite a few tickets back, as part of a 2017 new SSH offer, ie sign up for 2017 and we'll give you the Nov 30 (http://forums.redpatchboys.ca/x-apple-data-detectors://3) game (the Raps have done quite a bit of this). Some of those will come back into ticketmaster

The difference is that the regular media, even Bob McCown, is now hyping the event. Tickets will go very, very quickly. The temporary stands will sell easily, unless they over-price them.

A note to those wanting tickets:

Supporters Section tickets for Montreal will be only available to RPB members (or members of another group that they allow in). Membership has it's privileges. If you are not a member, you will have to buy from the Impact wherever you can get it.

If you want to try to get spare tickets from a member who can't go on the 30th, try the ticket trader section. Odds are fairly low, though. DO NOT POST IN THIS SECTION. http://forums.redpatchboys.ca/showthread.php?39673-Nov-30-7PM-TFC-vs-Impact-conference-finals&p=1818537#post1818537

(http://forums.redpatchboys.ca/showthread.php?39673-Nov-30-7PM-TFC-vs-Impact-conference-finals&p=1818537#post1818537)

I think some people are getting tickets in the away section without being a member according to some posts on the forum. If it's not right in the red patch boys section it appears right next to it anyway, which may be a supporters or away section anyway in itself.

I'm thinking that this two game Eastern Conference Final is a bit bigger in Montreal than Toronto, Montreal has already sold over 50 000 tickets , BMO Field while nearing a sellout still not sold out in a 30 000 seat BMO Field , if this was Montreal with the way ticket sales are going in Montreal BMO Field would have been sold out by now and not only the regular seats but also the over 6000 seats that they are installing for the Grey Cup and outdoor hockey game.

My seats are in 110, but I've been making my way to 114 for the past 3 games. Security is pretty lax and lines for beers are non-existent which is awesome. I wonder how that will change with the extra 6k in supporters in the south end.
In my opinion, they should fill the Gen Admin section in the north end before the grey cup seats.

Tickets either have to be authenticated or the seller has to offer a money back guarantee. Since StubHub is about the only place I buy on the secondary market I just had to read up on how the new scalping laws work in Ontario.

Totally legal now to sell tickets for a higher price on the secondary market in this province. It's just the way of the world now. I am sure there are limitations to do it legitimately. For example by reselling, aren't you supposed to charge HST which then goes to the government? Furthermore, if you're making a profit from the sale (which I assume you would) that additional income would have to be claimed on your personal taxes. I mean if you're selling a couple of tickets, no one will ever get you on it though you are still breaking tax laws. On the other hand, if you're a scalper and buy a few hundred to a thousand? Then that's a lot of unclaimed tax. Probably one of the reasons why Stub Hub is legal - there's a paper trail forcing them to pay their taxes.

I got the same as this but my time slot is 2:00 pm. What section are you in? I'm in 121. Did anyone in 121 get a different message?

Yeah access to your # of season seats on Friday, and then can get up to four on Monday in the general sale.

109 but SSH since 2009. Time is based on SSH tenure.

Seems like the south end will remain the same, with everyone else getting to pick their seats. I do wonder if you're 'locked' into your season seats unless someone else has taken them. Considering my seasons are rather far back in 221 as I just moved there this year might just end up being a free row upgrade (which would totally suck in the inverse).

First year SSH, 4pm, and I have to go through TM not the Account Manager.

It's possible that because I'm 205 (away support is up above me in 204) that MLS is expropriating the whole section.

Are the times 10, 12, 2 and 4? Seems like the email you received is either based on location or time slot (maybe?) - was anyone given a 10am slot with generic access to tickets? Or a later time slot that said you would get to choose your specific seats?

Guess MLS is taking over the SW corner to give good seats close to supporters for the atmosphere. Wonder if they will contribute or just watch?

I hope people buy their season tickets instead of going shopping around the stadium. We should all agree to that.

depends on how many SSH buy up. they probably have 15K non SSH seats at least. I don't think TFC exceeds 18K SSH?

So take the 18K non SSH
-2K for MLS Sponsors
-500 for Seattle
+however many SSH don't buy their seats (can't be many if at all)
=
what you have available

I don't get the impression based on these emails we're getting any crack at tickets beyond our own, before the general public sale? Maybe I've misread but that's how I'm seeing it.
