How is the line over there this morning? I showed up about 7:45am to about 20 people in line. The custodian said there was about 10 when he got here about 6:30am. Sales started at 8:30 and we had about 35-40 in line by then. Now about a constant 15-20 in line. Have had to turn away about 15 people already for living in town and trying to buy tickets out here. They are all general admission so it hasn't been too bad. Now if it had been reserved seating.....

Waited all but 20 minutes to get mine for both games. And I appreciated the screening process to a point.

What is considered a local zip code #? I just want a ticket for the Friday game since Robstown is not playing that night.

I was one of them turned away....Danaher is a jerk. I agree with keeping Moody fans from coming to Calallen to buy tickets, but when you are turning your own fans away then that is bad business. I just drove to Moody and got my tickets, but will be sitting on the Calallen side. So get there early or there will not be a seat on the Calallen side.

I just drove to Moody and got my tickets, but will be sitting on the Calallen side. So get there early or there will not be a seat on the Calallen side. I really don't know how else to do it. Maybe bring your property tax bill? The point is the Moody faithful and other fans who will follow them now (basically meaning the city of Corpus inside the CCISD boundaries) would grab all available tickets if some sort of restrictions were not placed and the only way I see that is by zip codes. Most Calallen residents live in the 78410 zip or the other zip that identifies residents who live in the school district westbound on FM 624 outside the city limits. I don't know of another way? It stinks and if you couldn't get the tickets, I'd probably be pissed too. But the situation here is more unique vs Moody's because they will outdraw you thanks the herd effect.

Allowing only 78410 or 78380 is just idiotic. He turned away Normie a season ticket holder cause his address is now Odem. I can assure you there are plenty of Calallen faithful that live outside the district and if that is the best plan you can come up with then maybe just sale the damn tickets. Moody was not checking id's. Secondly, I went back at lunch and they were not checking id's anymore. If you were in line like I was how many of the ticket buyers seemed to be from Moody? The lady in front of me just wanted to see her grandson play and waited in line for over an hour. I just think Danaher handled very poorly and was a jerk.

Like I said, I don't know how else to handle it. The fact is with the limited seating and if tickets would have run out at Moody, they would have come over here to get them in a heart beat. Quite frankly I'm surprised the tickets didn't runout over there, it could be the fact Carrol is the playoffs which will keep some from going to the Moody/Cal game. Don't get me wrong, I feel for you and do not neccesarly like the process. But I really can't think of another way to insure access for Calallen residents (IE taxpayers) to the game because we've seen this before.
