Instant presale sellout for AEW x NJPW: Forbidden Door (Patreon)
Content
In case you missed my real-time Twitter thread, this presale sold out in under 40 minutes.
It appears they left some seats for tomorrow (look at the missing 200's in the initial screenshot sent to me below) for the general public on-sale.
When I got in, I was met with a familiar image for popular shows:
This was happening for people 20 minutes into the presale. Over 20,000 people were in the queue.
First screenshot sent to me (note the missing 200s, just like the first United Center show):
6 minutes and 40 seconds later and I made it in. The initial batch of lower bowl seats are gone. Upper decks starting to move. This is a familiar pattern, I thought.
Then the upper decks went fast...
Minutes later, they are gone. I had dozens and dozens of people telling me they were still waiting in the queue.
The rest of the lower bowl and upper deck opened up (not including limited view sections) shortly after:
5 minutes later and the limited view seats have been added: This entire ticket map is 14,030 and they appear to be on their way to selling the majority of these seats in less than 40 minutes.
And minutes later those were gone as well.
More on this later...
