Guest swan Report post Posted March 26, 2003 We have been a regular stop since the mid 80's. Not sure what this is about. "WWE event canceled Rockford's World Wrestling Entertainment show -- 7 p.m. Sunday, April 6, at the MetroCentre -- has been canceled. Ticketholders can receive a refund by returning their tickets to the place of purchase." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cawthon777 0 Report post Posted March 26, 2003 When I think routing issues, I think the show is too far out of the way from the show before and the show after this stop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest subliminal_animal Report post Posted March 26, 2003 routing issues = poor ticket sales? Yep. Right there in the dictionary. When I think routing issues, I think the show is too far out of the way from the show before and the show after this stop. That's their fault for scheduling the show there. And the fault of the people who live there. The WWE can't drive up to your doorstep, people! Show a little consideration, okay?! And since I'm a jerk-off ... Local WWE Event Canceled OH MY GOD!! HUUUUGE NEWS!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Czech Republic Report post Posted March 26, 2003 That's their fault for scheduling the show there. And the fault of the people who live there. The WWE can't drive up to your doorstep, people! Show a little consideration, okay?! Yeah no kidding, it's not as if Rockford is some major Illinois city or anything, I mean, I can't even find it on my map of the state. It is their fault, those pricks in Rockford with their Loglis and Beef-a-Roos. Not to mention the dumbasses at WWE for running a show at a venue they traditionally visit. Those monkeys had it coming!Maybe they'll run a show at the Nassau Coliseum instead. Seriously, this sucks. I was going to get tickets to that show. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
