The hassles just aren't worth it. I want to stay across the street from the park, but nothing is available. Getting booked up quickly!

Haha! :laugh3: I guess my Twitter name is a bit too obvious. Yeah, love the Pens. I've grown up with hockey, saw Gretzky in his prime and still think he's got nothing on Crosby. Malkin is awesome. Yeah I literally don't know anybody in town that admits to liking the Pens. I do indeed take many verbal beatings. But when our home team hasn't won in 40 years it's hard for fans to really do much, except talk. Kessel seems like he still has some good years left. You're in Toronto?

 

Yeah, member of Leafs nation right here. It's my second major interest besides Coldplay. Something I'll say about Kess: I believe he's a good locker room guy despite the reports otherwise. So what if he likes to keep to himself? That doesn't make him a bad guy. Another thing is how he's out of shape. Dunno if it's true, but he gained weight due to the meds he had to take from the testicular cancer he had a while back. True or not, the guy managed to be one of the fastest players in the league, let alone our team. Rarely misses a game too. You can't be those things if you're 'out of shape'. Kess will be good for you, our media just pisses on him (and everyone).

 

(How do you feel about the Phillies and/or the Pirates?)

Go Jaysssss

(How do you feel about the Phillies and/or the Pirates?)

 

Not a big baseball fan. Too slow for me, I get bored easy. I'll root for the Phillies but don't lose sleep if they are bad. I just can't get into it. Are you a big Cardinals fan? What's it like to actually have a legitamite contender all the time?

Well, good thing you aren't a big Phillies fan this year. I like to root for them usually, but they are just...bad this year. Better them than the Pirates, though. Is there a big state rivalry for the two teams that you're aware of? Haha, I am! This season is just insane, even for the Cardinals. It's a pretty neat feeling, but I think mainly because our other teams (Blues, Rams) are generally underwhelming.

It's weird, the Blues seem like they are always at the top of the division and then crumble in the playoffs. It's odd, the Pennsylvania sports rivalry is only bitter, angry, and ugly with the Penguins and Flyers which sucks because I like them both. But there really is nothing between the Phils/Pirates or Eagles/Steelers. Although Eagles fans basically hate all teams equally (except more hatred for Cowboys). A lot of anger in the typical Philadelphia fan unfortunately.

It's so weird. I'm not a big hockey fan, but because of co-workers and friends, I know enough about who and who's not good, players, etc. The Blues have a large fanbase in STL, but the Rams have next to nothing. Man, I was born and raised in Texas, and even I hate the Cowboys. I guess I could be a pretty good Eagles fan, then.

Bad news. My dream of seeing Coldplay in Central Park died today. I just heard that my entire institute going on a retreat in New Hampshire, and it is exactly on this one weekend I would have needed. No way for me to be in NYC on the 26th of September :cry: :cry: :cry:

 

I will continue to do the actions though, and if I win I'll give them away to fellow Coldplayers.

That's a tough break. My dream may be dying as well if I don't win tickets. I might just go up there and hang around and just try to hear the show without going in, like a complete homeless person. Hey you should resign from your job on that Friday, go to the show Saturday, then re-apply for your own job opening that next Monday, asking for a sign-on bonus. :P

Attention all coldplayers!

 

I will split a hotel room with you and take care of the entire cost if you win tickets and invite me as your guest!

 

Just send me a PM.

 

And good luck to all in the lotteries!

Although I can't be that generous, if anybody who won tickets is interested in selling one, PM me. Thanks.

I LIVE IN NEW HAMPSHIRE!!

I love this idea and I've been doing all I can to win tickets[emoji4] If I win I will definitely take one of you guys and I hope one of you will do the same for me[emoji8] I live in NH so if this were to happen I would be will to split hotel charges[emoji12] Thank you my kind Coldplayers friends! You guys rock!

Very generous, always a great idea if anyone can invite a coldplayer to a show if they have an extra ticket to a show.

 

Coldplay Karma always works wonders!

 

+1!

I don't know what this means: I only entered the first drawing, but I won on the second draw. Maybe we have multiple chances to win?

Cool ! But honestly, I thought you have to enter for every drawing separately by completing the necesssary actions specific to that particular action journey.

My dream of the seeing the concert has officially died. I DID have a ticket reserved $200 however I got hit with a bunch of unexpected costs. Killing me. Had to release the ticket. I figure I'll save for when they come around on tour. But quite frankly, I've gotta tell you what a state I'm in....COMPLETE DEPRESSION. it has cut me in into 2 per say.

Honestly, I think you did the right thing. I would expect the actual Coldplay tour would be bigger and better than a festival slot.

Did any Coldplayers here happen to win? Ye would deserve it most.

 

not here but i know a bunch of twitter coldplay fans that won

Oh Spraycan Soul, I know how you feel when you look forward to something and it doesn't work out. Some weeks ago I also had to bury that dream. But it's true, saving that money for their tour is, rationally speaking the better choice - you'll get a full set and spend an evening in a sea of true Coldplay fans as opposed to hearing a tiny set while everyone is waiting for Beyonce to perform.

 

Still, don't give up. Continue doing those actions and extra giveaeays and you may still win tickets !

I've moved this thread to the new concert info section :P

Well said. It's more difficult at the moment because everyone is itching to see Coldplay but once the tour happens, you should get a few opportunities and it will be a more in depth experience :D

Hey everyone! Just won tickets and will have an extra if any one wants to be my plus one. I am flying to NY from San Fran just to see Coldplay. If any New Yorkers have a pad I can crash at for a day or two the ticket is yours. PM me

Didn't win in the last but one round either, so if it had been possible for me to come I guess I'd be very disappointed.

Still keeping my fingers crossed for the last round though...
