    Woohoo! Stoked I didn't shell out for AHA this year...now I can spend that money on actual tickets to the event. Doors open = face value.

    It was posted this is not happening any more. The special line is going to be used for Farm-to-table ticket holders this year.

    Maybe a weird question, but are all the designated driver tickets sold out too? I got my regular Thursday ticket, but at this point it seems my girlfriend will not be making the trip with me...

    No
    No members line this year. Farm to Table is the only option for express entry.

    I'd expect they're going to go through and cancel out one of the orders if you went above the total tickets allowed per session.

    They fixed it. At first they wouldn't allow the 2nd use. Or at least that's what it seemed to me. I used mine for Friday and it wouldn't take it for Saturday for several tries

    Me thinks that the GABF has gotten too big for it's damn britches when AHA members can't even get ONE lousy ticket. Been going every year since about '93 or so but. "Nice" that I wasted most of my time trying to get my AHA number to work (and forgo sleep since I worked last night and work tonite). Guess my run of going to this one is done.

    Same here. I ordered Saturday's first, maybe that was the difference.

    It was on the website for months ahead of time. I'm not sure what else they could have done...

    Does anyone know if they sold the same number of tickets as last year for the presale? It seemed to go really fast this year. I was curious if they would hold more back for the general public sale since it went so fast last year and got so much flack.
