Re: ***Official Hartford 2016***

I have three people total that I need tickets for. If I request two seats via warehouse for pit, and use my priority on them:

1) Do you think I will get confirmed (I know there is no true answer, but I'm really curious mainly because of how big I hear the pit is). Is it to a point where almost everyone who requests pit tickets through the warehouse gets confirmed for them?; and

2) If I do get confirmed, it shouldn't be difficult snagging a single pit ticket either through the presale or public sale?

Its either the method above, or just go 3 reserved through the warehouse. Decisions decisions.

    Sad to see how Hartford was once viewed as mecca and end to the summer with 3 nights. The 2 night weekends were amazing as well. Friday show last year was hell getting to. Now that they are playing on saturday-expect many more people.

    Love this venue, love the tailgates. Dave and the boys love it too

    If you really want pit, I can almost guarantee you'll be able to during public on sale, random drops, or just here on the boards

    Lots generally open around 3-4pm but they'll let you in earlier if you buy VIP parking. Tailgating is the best there is, in my opinion. Traffic getting out is hit or miss, depending where you park for tailgating.

    I've requested Pit for Hartford for as long as the option has been available. I've been a WH member since Jan 2003. I've never gotten Pit tickets from WH for Hartford.

    Haha, well that doesnt make me feel to well lol. I requested 2 Pit tickets with priority. Fingers crossed. Have you ever requested reserves, confirmed or denied, good or bad seats?

    Aren't there also private lots that let you start earlier? Also, sometimes we just go to Burger King near by and they let us tailgate in their lot as long as we purchase something from them at some point. Then we usually move to the main lot once it opens. We passed the Midas lot last year and that place looked crazy.

    Always requested Pit, usually get pushed back to reserved, always further back in pavilion, a handful of times denied but usually I get seats.

    If you're quick you can pull Pits off of Citi Presale or regular on sale.

    You can park private but they've been getting more strict about what time the lots open. I'd say head there early and try, or park at Burger King or McDonalds until the other lots open.

    Yea, that's the real issue for me. I need 3 tickets together. So if my request for pit gets pushed back to reserves, I'm in an annoying situation because I'd either need to find a single near us, or sell my 2 and by 3 together.

    Well I have hard charges for max value, so it looks like I might have actually gotten pit (which would be great). Worst thing is I get two very good reserve seats. Only issue is I have 2 people coming with me, so if I ended up with reserves, idk what I'm going to do about the third seat lol. Hoping for pit as it would solve that problem (just find a solo pit).

    If you do get confirmed for 2 lower reserved seats, you could probably trade the two seats for two pit tickets.

    Got my third pit ticket this morning. I'm all set now with 3 pits. Pretty pumped. First time I'm not on the lawn at Hartford. I think I'm gonna miss the shit show out there.

    I concur. Hartford PIT is huge. Stage right is usually pretty open. I've gotten there right before the show starts and have gotten within 5 people deep.

    Will definitely try for PIT again.

    Pit really isnt that bad. I go in an hour before and am always 3 or 4 rows of people from Tim.

    I'll probably hang in the back, if my wife comes with me I'll 100% be in the back

    Might even look to trade for good lowers

    That sounds perfect. At Camden last year we went in with the mindset of just hanging in the back of the pit but even that was chaos, I'm not looking to be front row- just comfortable
