0I attended one of the past HDB's at Qwallcomm or whatever they call it.

If you plan to attend, DO NOT purchase tix under the over hanging seat... You will miss much of the peripheral action such as flyovers, fireworks, or even high kick offs and punts.

Hope they have replaced the 20" monitors the stadium had back then.
Autzen Stadium... Where great teams go to die...Hard!

Fortunately that Stadium is HISTORY. Torn down. Was a horrible monstrosity. Will be played at Padres Petco for first time.

Likely going to be a lot of empty seats as Alaska is cancelling flights right and left. I was supposed to fly down tonight (Tuesday) and back on Thursday. They cancelled my flight today and re-booked me to now fly down to San Diego on the 29th on a flight that is after my return flight. Go figure! Guess I won't be going to the game and just wasted a lot of $$$ on tickets for me and friends.

That is worse than refs making a bad call. I hope you are recompensed.

Too bad about not being able to attend the game. Hopefully you can get refunds on the plane tickets at least.

Probably doesnt help now, but some credit cards have travel insurance features built into them. We were able to get an entire trip to NYC (airfare/hotel/broadway tickets) recouped last year because we booked it all on a CC with travel protection on it.

Yes, Alaska admitted the cancellation was their fault and fully refunded my plane ticket. Now I have to get in touch with their Customer Care to discuss compensation for the game tickets. Last call it was a 5 hour hold time. :lol: :shock:

They should really move the Holiday Bowl to Snapdragon Stadium. Brand new, meant for football, and seats 35,000. Hope this happens next year. Playing football in baseball stadiums is kinda goofy.
