No luck at all.. Can't even get to the ticket page to place an order (and I am on DSL). I feel lucky to get in the VWR.. No luck on phones either. Got thru on 800 line once, but wouldn't take my call because I called from 415 area code... This is worse than water torture.

I've been hammering on the web for the last hour....so far, only once did I get anything different from a 404 error. And even then, after I made my ticket selections, I got another 404 anyway. oh yeah, and those 'Giants Virtual Waiting Room' pages, which led to 404s.

I also tried to just get to www.tickets.com , but I couldn't. I wonder if their whole site is down....

p.s. and I'm on a frickin' T-1!

I have gotten to the "pick the number of seats and section" page but then cannot load the next page when I hit the continue button. I am also on a T-1 connection.

This has happened to me several times - it is a rip. At least they should allow you to get queued up or something (like the wristbands at the ballpark). They probably have a regular old PC for their server.

Very disappointing.

I got through everything and chose my tickets and quantities, then when I clicked the "Purchase Tickets" the "cannot display" window popped up. D.A.M.N.

There's alotta sites besides tickets.com and ebay.com where you can buy tickets. The cheapest I found were $400.

No luck either. Same problem as everyone else. I would get to the ticket selection page, put in my seats and # of tix, then bam!! 404 error. THis really ####, and I'm even using my college's T3 connection. Tried calling, been busy for 2 hours.

Man this #### if you ask me. This is like slot machine odds...i was able to go to the select tix screen..but when i hit continue...it timed out...:(...the servers definately are taking hits right now...i wonder whats left...so i can go on and be happy with my world series tix...seats at my living room

slot machine odds:

waiting room = a cherry

select screen = 7 7 7 (mix)

gray screen with tix = jackpot

Well, I guess my dorm is just gonna watch the games on a big screen tv. Some people on the floor above me even went to camp out a couple days ago but all the wristbands were handed out. Dang nabbit.

Well, I'm not really a Giants fan so I guess it doesn't matter. My best friend is, so I was gonna try to catch a game for her... good luck to the Giants (even though I'm rooting for the Halos lol=X)
