Certainly if she has difficulty selling them I'd be interested in hearing in a couple of weeks. Of course I'd be looking to pay her the face value she paid for them, with any transaction expenses. My dilemma is that I likely won't be able to make the decision on going until much closer to race day due to other life stuff. My advantage is that I just jump in my car and drive down in 4 1/2 to 5 hours, so not much prep needed for me. We have a friend in Pasadena we can stay with if we don't get a decent room close to the track, so I can make the call on race day if need be. That said, I REALLY want to attend this one.

General Admission tix by phone today; face value
Just a quick update for anyone interested.
The "Souvenir Ticket" is available with a phone order at the Santa Anita Breeders Cup link. I ordered two for $20 each, with a reasonable $15 service charge for certified delivery. Up until today I thought that mail in form was required. Saw the offer for "souvenir" with the phone number and was able to transact in about 3 minutes. On some of the ticket sales sites people are asking two and three times face value for General Admission today....

Make sure the tickets are fireproof.

General Admission is $20 a day walkup. Why purchase them early?

Suitable for framing or something, I guess.... For me, I just feel better with tickets in hand since I'm driving in from the Bay Area late the night before. If the $15 keeps me from standing in line a bit, that could be worth it right there. I made the mistake of doing walk-up for a spontaneous Dodger game one night and after 45 minutes of being in line outside.....while the game was already being played.....became very appreciative of having advanced tickets at SoCal events.

It's our All Star Game. Some years better, and some years not. But, it's only played once a year and ends up in an easily researched and perhaps remembered spot. I've attended the Kentucky Derby, The Preakness, and The Belmont. And Saratoga and Del Mar. And Thistledown. :-) I'm psyched to make my first Breeders Cup. My program and tickets will definitely end up preserved somewhere around here. Plus, I understand they do sell beer at Santa Anita.
