Nightfly Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Right, since my birthday is coming up soon (February 3rd) I of course asked for a Superbowl victory. Today I got home from work and my girlfriend (who is from Atlanta), together with my mom surprised me with two plane tickets to Atlanta, leaving tomorrow! Am I excited? Well, that's already the understatement of the year! I became a Falcons fan 20 years ago, so I understand all that we've been through as fans. Staying up until the middle of the night (time difference) and having to work a few hours after the final whistle wasn't uncommon for me.I highly doubt I will be able to get tickets to the game but even so, I cannot wait to soak up the atmosphere in Atlanta with all of you! If I'm unable to get tickets, where is the best place to watch the game? I've seen some awesome YouTube videos from fans watching the game just outside the Dome. I will definitely be joining the tailgating! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duncja Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Awesome man, happy birthday. You can get into the game, just wait to buy your ticket until about 3:20 for the best price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not at all expecting to be able to get tickets for the game, but that would be awesome if we could get two tickets and watch the game live in the Dome!

SiViK_OuTkAsT™ Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 What will hold you back from getting tickets? Is it price or your feeling as though they will be unavailable. Just curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightfly Posted January 16, 2013 Author Share Posted January 16, 2013 What will hold you back from getting tickets? Is it price or your feeling as though they will be unavailable. Just curious. Unavailable. I'm not worried about the price at all since this is pretty much going to be a once in a life time experience for me so I'm willing to fork out some cash for tickets. But if they are easily available outside the Dome, I'll be in the Dome screaming my lungs out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any recommendation on which section I should pick? Anything between $200-400 is fine. I'm very fanatic so I would like to stand most of the time without having people telling me to sit down.

Go to our home page highlight tickets click on ticket exchange in the drop down menu. Congratulations if you do end up going! You need to repay your girl/mom a gift just not the same kind of gift if your picking up what I'm putting down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is just amazing, I never thought I'd be able to get tickets and I was already super stocked about just being in Atlanta and soaking up the atmosphere. Our flight is leaving in 8 hours. I'll make sure to be at the Dome really early on game day for the tailgating. That's one thing I've never experienced before. Haha I gotcha man! I have a sleepless night ahead of me, hehe... I'll be buying the game ticket for my girlfriend, she's almost as stocked about this as I am. Oh, please let Sunday come soon... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, please let Sunday come soon...Check out the thread for the official NFC Champ Tailgating and get in touch with someone and get a number. It's not my party but I'm going to be there and those guys surely wouldn't mind if you came and probably would encourage you to do so. Hope you have a great time dude and enjoy, these games don't come here often. I didn't sleep at all last Saturday night and I don't expect this one to be any different. I plan on taking some melatonin or something Edited January 16, 2013 by SiViK_OuTkAsT™ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightfly Posted January 16, 2013 Author Share Posted January 16, 2013 Oh sweet, thanks dude! I'll hold off on letting them know if I'm going to their tailgating party until I arrive in the ATL tomorrow. It would be awesome to meet some of y'all! And I'll of course bring food and drinks so I'm sure nobody will mind having a crazy Dutchie around I don't think I'll be able to sleep at all from now till Sunday, I've had adrenaline rushing through my body ever since I got the two plane tickets and that was without knowing that I'll actually be inside the Dome! Thankfully we have something here in Holland that helps you sleep pretty well and it's legal Alright, I have to hold off on ordering tickets until I am actually on US soil. I'm looking at the Mezzanine section you suggested, that looks perfect! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightfly Posted January 17, 2013 Author Share Posted January 17, 2013 Alright, a little update. I am in the ATL right now, after a really long flight. (3 hour layover in Paris turned into a 6 hour layover, and the French are terribly rude people) Just ordered two tickets for the game, section 209! I'm ready for Sunday! Now it's time to go shopping for some more Falcons gear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been a long time since I had a couple of American beers, hehe. I'll make sure to bring some of my own too, don't want to show up empty handed! I still can't believe that I'll be inside the Dome for the game... I guess the next awesome thing I'll be doing is taking a road trip to that **** hole of a city a little further South.

I will be in section 207 this week so not that far off. Hope you have a blast!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
