Default Gulfstream Ticket Process
23 days until they open and for the last week (when I started checking) you haven't been able to get into the ticket part of the website, saying unusual high traffic (and it is 12:34am CST right now).

Obviously annoying because I am trying to get seats but it just makes you understand why these bozos can't make money when they can't even get their website to run smoothly.

dont forget the people they screw each yr that dont cash in their reward points before 12-31, I know this has nothing to do with tickets but more so the way they operate. I am feeling tickets will be plentiful almost any day

I know they will be plentiful, I just want to get small things out of the way like that stuff.

Their website is very pedestrian. It probably will never accept your request.

Try calling them ---- Telephone: (954) 454-7000

Did that today, I got transfered to admission three consective times after being sent to the front desk. No one every answered.

I'll just wait until the meet opens, I bought tickets on there last year after they were already open. It is just you would think that they wouldn't wait to open on opening day!

never try to predict what mgmt @ GP is "thinking".

Are you looking for a specific day? ( FOY, FD, SSM? ) seems like these are the only days advanced tickets are needed.

Yeah, I am hoping to be there the first weekend in Feb so Donn weekend.

It isn't a huge deal, I can get tickets whenever, I just thought it was odd that you can't advance buy tickets. I am probably the only idiot that is focused on that stuff anyways.

Tom, I'll be down there for the Donn as well. Your best bet is to wait until the meet opens up.

Chuck just because your stable will be running at Turfway that day doesn't mean you should talk **** on the Donn.

With the limited amount of seating available it's never to early. PG should have the Tri figured out by now. Rule - I Want Revenge - Fly Down!

I doubt Chuck's too worried about the weather when he gets to run against the type of horses at Parx for the the kind of money they're handing out. A few calls to the horseman's bookkeeper will help him warm up.
