I totally forgot about WASTE until this bright Sunday morning, 24 hours too late. I had the same issue: 10:01 am on ticketbastard and I was going for 3 tickets, kept getting nada go scored lawn tickets, with an exhorbinant service charge. At least i can bust out my colorful mexican blanket, and not bring in beers, but take advantege of the Pavilion's diverse selection of refreshments = screwed at both ends.
It shouldn't rain, cause I'm going... 2 years ago summer roadtripping out from CA to DC for school, made the decision long before that not to buy Bull Run tickets and take our time across this great nation. It was the right decision. Congrats to you down in the protected seats, and someone please explain how that TM on the side shit can be ignored.
