Tickets news for Hatton - PBF

**littlebif** · 08-15-2007 01:43 PM

Got this of the Hatton forum.People who have been to see Hatton in the US will have priority on tickets i think it should be first come first serve what does everyone else think?

That could result in a postal ballot for tickets, if demand outstrips supply, and Punch Promotions has already set up a booking system which will give priority to fans who have travelled to previous Hatton fights in the States. http://www.rickyhitmanhatton.com/for...?topic=17696.0

Hope this doesnt happen!

Yeah I read that today, I think it's completely unfair. That could potentially mean up to 10'000 tickets gone before we even get a look in! Take away the thousands of tickets given away for promotion and how many does that leave for us first timers?

same thing in any sports , tickets go onsale for the cities a few days before they go onsale for everyone else

seems fair to me, u support your guy out there many times then some casual fan cashes in on a ticket for a mega match and u lose out? fuck that...

you see it in other sports, guys who would go down and follow your local team for years and years, then they draw some famous top side in a cup match and some muppet who has never been down there ebfore egts a ticket and you don't? bollox

I understand your point, but it is a little bit of a generalisation. I'm not a casual fan of boxing but have never been out to Vegas for a fight. I don't think that makes me any less deserving to be there. I'll be honest if a casual fan got out there over me I would be pissed off..maybe the box office should make you participate in a boxing quiz before they decide wether you get a ticket or not

Still though, with your theory Preme, where does that leave me? I'm not following the local boy..i'm going out there to support pretty boy Floyd. What should the rule be on me getting a ticket then? lol

I was going to go to the Castillo fight with my mate then he broke his bloodly leg so we ended up not going. Now it looks like we arnt gonna get chance to even get a ticket!

Thats bullshit. I am a massive fan, but I've never previously been in a position to afford to go. Now I am, I'm fucking desperate to get a ticket. I bet I have no chance of being able to see this now!

They do the same in Baseball as well as other sports come playoff and championship time... If you are a season ticket holder you get 1st choice.
