Guest Twenty7 Report post Posted September 23, 2004 Now I just went on to WWE.com and I see their advertisement for Wrestlemania Ticket Pre-sale for this Friday and you need a codeword. Well on the advertisement, the code word is KAYFABE. What the hell is going on here? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Twenty7 Report post Posted September 23, 2004 Franchise, thanks for giving the Literal answer to the question, but I would kind of like an answer that was past the 1st grade level of thinking. Contextually, the question posed would be why would the WWE use KAYFABE rather than any other word to describe Wrestlemania or something to describe the location this year (which would happen to be Los Angeles) or even a wrestler or a wrestling maneuver? Why the word KAYFABE? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheFranchise 0 Report post Posted September 23, 2004 Franchise, thanks for giving the Literal answer to the question, but I would kind of like an answer that was past the 1st grade level of thinking. Well, how many people who visit wwe.com would know what kayfabe was anyway? It was probably so people didn't guess the pre-sale password (ie things like RAW or TORONTO) - I mean, who'd guess kayfabe?

Guest Twenty7 Report post Posted September 23, 2004 It was probably so people didn't guess the pre-sale password (ie things like RAW or TORONTO) - I mean, who'd guess kayfabe? So if we were to assume that your "who'd guess kayfabe?" theory is correct, then why would the WWE being GIVING OUT the password for FREE on their offical website? They don't have to guess anything. So again, why kayfabe? Or in fact, why have a password at all? And I would also like to know why you quoted me in your second reply to this thread? You never replied to the quote. It has no relativity to what you said in your post. When you quote somebody, make sure you say something about it, or you just look like a complete moron.

UZI Suicide 0 Report post Posted September 24, 2004 damn, I got online at like 9:00 and 30 seconds and already a lot of the tickets were gone. Oh well, I still got good seats. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jobber of the Week 0 Report post Posted September 24, 2004 Looks like another blowout. This is the third year (in a row) I've succeeded at getting WM tickets, and I'm pretty suprised at the prices this year. Maybe I was spoiled by the mass seating at WM 19, but I was suprised to find out that lower bowl meant paying $100-$200 figures. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Brian Report post Posted September 24, 2004 It's not that bad. The seats I bought were off on the far side of that section. They should actually be decent for that price. I just hope the have re-sale value. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jobber of the Week 0 Report post Posted September 24, 2004 I got 218, which could have been worse. I can't even fathom what the setup will look like this year, 115 and 116 are floor seats directly behind the stage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bgunn Report post Posted September 24, 2004 Damn you people!!! This is what I get for getting tickets for five people. Within seconds they had nothing. Oh well, better luck tomorrow I suppose. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Miss Indy Queen Report post Posted September 24, 2004 I wound up getting 6 tickets by luck. Not all together b/c that would have been impossible but 3 pairs. I think this year was worse than last year in term's of getting tickets. I didn't get through till after 12:10 eastern time and after that they just kept popping up. I already checked ebay and the prices are ridiculous! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest bgunn Report post Posted September 24, 2004 I think that is what I am going to do tomorrow, buy sets of 2 and hopefully get enough tickets for 5 people. Shit, as long as I get to go who cares about them. This will be my fifth Wrestlemania in a row, and I live in Baltimore, MD. Greyhound to Houston and Toronto, Flew to Seattle, and drove to NY. I better get tickets, because there is no way in hell I am paying Ebay prices. I didn't get tickets on the presale last year so I am not sweating it too much. Thanks ya'll, you lucky ticket having bastards. Chris Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
