What is a pass to a game?
One of the players who will play tonight told me that he could not get me any tickets but will get me a pass to the game. What does this mean? Is this something like you can get to the saddledome but you can't sit in there?

My friend works for the Forzani group and gets me passes sometimes. I think you can't use them if the game is sold out or something like that. Dunno, its been a long time since I've used one.

But that does make sense since he told me that he could not get me the tickets and only could get me the passes.

Maybe its a press pass and you get to sit in the press box.

A player should be able to get tickets up til 5pm,they hold so many for the players,I got some last year,maybe you were too late asking him and he couldn't get to the PR guy quick enough.

You can get visitors passes. Which are for people who are typically doing a job outside of the regular saddledome jobs. So you won't have a seat. I highly doubt you can get into the press box with anything your friend is giving you.

Well, he is a Washington player and he told me that Green bought more than 30 for his relatives.

Probably not, but who knows, I can't call him since I don't want to wake him up from their afternoon nap.

I think you get to go back stage after the game. You will get to sign your autograph on the rock-hard stomachs of beautiful young women, and get to help youself to Bud Light.
