I just got my call (#249) and regrettably declined season tickets (posted about this previously) but will be notified when game packs go on sale. He said that they are planning 3 and 5 game packs, depending on availability after all of the members get a crack at season tickets. I did poll some friends and family about splitting some season tickets, but a) it would be funner to go together, and b) everyone thought it sounded neat, but nobody was able to commit to taking x tickets. So here we are - I'll be waiting for game packs, which I think is more realistic for my schedule this coming summer.

Ironically, I got the same, nice guy on the phone who I had previously had a good chat about parking, prices, etc. and he said that they are seeing a lot of 2 and 4 seat purchases from members, and that they are above 500 sold thus far (after 250 calls, so they are averaging approx. 2 seats per member, even including those like me who didn't buy). He does expect it to slow down a little as the member numbers get higher, but he did say that they are pleased with the response so far.

Generally speaking, if someone is willing to drop some money just to become a member, they'll likely be investing further in some capacity. I would imagine that the vast majority of those that don't buy season tickets will be committing to 1/3 or 1/5 season by way of a 5 or 3 game pack.

For me, despite my criticisms of a few things along the way, my excitement is growing as this thing starts to take shape.
