Just booked the family tickets with the credit card from the Leinster Council. Upper Cusack. They couldn't tell which block but theres great view wherever you are up there.

This really will be epic.

Could someone let us know, as soon as it becomes known, where the terrace tickets are for?
I presume we'll get the the Nally Terrace to ourselves, or are the Hill tickets being allocated higgledy piggledy.

I wouldn't bank on any Hill tickets at all BnMM. I was at the Leix/Dub game and I didn't notice any LS supposters on the Hill at all. God forbid they gave us a section on "their" Hill!

Seems like they are giving us Hill tickets.
I just hope they have given Offaly an allocated area as opposed to someone in Crow Park gathering up a few loose tickets out of the bottom of a drawer and sending them down to us.
They enforce the section allocation for Hill sell outs too.

No Hill tickets available in Offaly - Hill 16 is Dublin only, as the song goes.
All the Lower Hogan and Cusack tickets are sold out also.
I suppose all the people who haven't been in Croke Park since the 2000 All Ireland are coming out in their droves.

Why in the name o' jaysus have we not been allocated with Hill tickets?The whole point of segregating the Hill was to allow for fair distribution of tickets.GAA politics favouring the metropolitans once again, typical!
ALLEZ LES FAITHFUL.

If we don't get allocated any tickets for the Hill, does that mean we should be allocated more for the stands?? I can manage not!!

I queued for 1hr 40mins last nite in Tullamore to get a couple of tickets up in Gods. I'm five rows from the top of the Cusack (C705) but at least it's in the middle of the field.
They were the best of the stand tickets available as they only had small quantities of good Cusack/Hogan lower and they were snapped up in the first few minutes. There were however Hill tickets also on sale - I don't know if many people purchased them though as most if not all people in the queue beside me were looking for stand tickets only. If you wanted a juvenille ticket, they were only available for the Canal lower (ie pay to watch the match on the big screen).
The whole thing was a bit of a shambles as there was only one outlet selling the tickets and there were still a couple of hundred people waiting when I left at 8.20. There was also no limit on the quantity of tickets a person could buy and I seen people walking out with up to 20 tickets each.

The Irish times has reported today that the game is expected to be an 83,000 sell out.

Offaly were allocated 15,000 tickets and look like selling them all and probably more when you think of ticketmaster etc.

Jaysus, me nerves are going already and there is still 4 days to go. Was thinking of heading up this evening just to get a good seat in Kavanaghs !

My tickets arrived from the Leinster Council yesterday and while I'm happy to have any at all, I'm a bit pissed off at being stuck up in Row S in Block 711 in the Upper Cusack (one block from the very corner)

Who got all the good Hogan and Cusack stand tickets ?

got 5 upper hogans there yesterday, there were also upper cusack available seems they held back some tickets as these weren't available earlier in the week...

For big demand games, you're better off get them through your club if you can at all, as they'll have first call on the blocks reserved for the county. Ticketmaster will only get the good ones if it's very low demand or if the counties release them back on Thursday.
