Same thing happened to me. Here’s the text of what they sent. Apparently they activated the “BILLSMAFIA” and “CHIEFSKINGDOM” codes before STH, and tons sold and hit secondary at warp speed. I bought and had no idea that’s where my tickets came from. 

 

It’s more of a TM eff up than it is an “unauthorized code”, but here we are. It sucks, but STH now rightfully get first go. If it were any other business, I’d expect them to do a “make it right”, but I don’t see any potential for that here. I guess I’ll wait and try again in a couple days. Son of a…
 

I’ll also make sure to go with a competitor to TM next time. 
 

Attention Ticketholder,

 

The tickets you purchased were acquired by a buyer who used an unauthorized code. As such, your tickets have been canceled and your card has been refunded in full. You should see the refund processed in seven to 10 business days.

 

AFC Championship Game 
Mercedes-Benz Stadium, Atlanta, GA
Sunday, January 29th at 6:30PM  
 

You may have an opportunity to purchase tickets at a later time, subject to availability. Please visit your team's site for further onsale dates/times.

 

We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Yeah Chiefs fans have been to 4 straight AFCCG and beaten the Bills the past 2 seasons in the playoffs..........so they are likely assuming Super Bowl and saving their cash for that.    Now if the game had been in Vegas..........with the $45 flights from KC to LV all day..........yeah that might have been different.  

 

I highly doubt chiefs fan, or any football fan, is saving their money for Super Bowl tickets lol

You know Goodell, Kraft, Jones, Kroenkethe NFL wants that Atlanta game to happen very very badly.  Little extra bonus to Arthur Blankthe refs Sunday I’m sure 

Sorry guys this is just so wrong on many levels, a real bad precedent by the NFL.

 

We were taught that you can't change the rules in the middle of the game. The NFL owners vote was wrong, & it's our team who stands to benefit the most from it.

Why would you doubt that?   Why drop $2K-$3K on a trip to Atlanta for the Chiefs 5th straight AFCCG when you can apply that money toward a SB trip?

whos dropping 2k/3k on a trip to atlanta? I paid 150 for a game ticket, 320 for flight and 350 for hotel for 2 nights. Under a thousand is a hell of a lot different than the 8-10K at least itll cost to be at the super bowl (cheapest ticket in the door is $6,500). Normal fans dont go to superbowls anymore man. 

 

If you are that much of a fan that you would wanna be at AFCCG / Superbowl and have 10 K to drop on a super bowl trip, youve also got the grand to be at atlanta.

Are there any tickets left for STH?

 

Not in the Bills' allotment. Need to wait for the public presale to go live tomorrow and see what KC hasnt scooped up yet.

 

edit: There might be single tickets available on the Bills side, but no pairs or larger groupings.

The presumption is that MOST fans won't be going alone.    Most season ticket holders have multiple tickets on their account.   Flying and spending two nights in town to sit in a single in the end zone is you doing you for "under $1K".     As for people who have $10K also having $1K.........that's not the only factor.    People have to take time off from work etc..    I assure you there will be lot's of "normal" fans at the Super Bowl.     There always are.

The presumption is that MOST fans wont be going alone to the Super Bowl then as well. So same spending ratio works. Double my amount for going to Atlanta vs. double the amount to attend the Super Bowl. 

 

The vast majority of super bowl tickets are NOT purchased by normals, there is no way you can actually think that. Like, ive seen you post and know that you arent dumb. 

 

KC fans not going to the AFCCG in order to save money so they can afford to go to the super bowl is just an illogical, bad argument. Maybe that applies to 1,000 people (IT DOESN'T, but lets just pretend your argument holds any type of water). What about the other 60,000 season ticket holders?

As a season ticket holder who knows lot's of fans for whom $10K-$20K is either a major object or not...........I assure you........both groups of people still make business decisions over a grand or two.     The lower bowl was full of young rando's last week because a lot of the veterans decided it wasn't worth flying or driving a long distance into town to attend a game we were expecting to win.   That's why ticket prices dropped.    You might want to consider that your status as a lone wolf fan who thinks that "normal" fans wouldn't put themselves in debt to see a SB is not based on much fact/experience.    The average household in the US is over $150K in debt.    FWIW........our group has 15 tickets to the prospective game in Atlanta.......it's possible I have a broader perspective on how it works.

Its also possible that you just arent correct. Why is that NFL players and coaches have publicly commented about how the Super Bowl isnt a good atmosphere anymore? Is that because of all the normal die hards in attendance?

Most people going won't be season ticket holders so their tix will be much more expensive. I am living here so my cost will be about $350 

 

Those people aren't relevant to our argument though. We are talking about Chiefs fans not wanting to spend money so they can save it to attend the super bowl, well he is, im telling him that is ridiculous.

We will have to agree to disagree about it though because I am done spending time and effort on a silly argument.

 

However, Your household debt is a tad high, its actually about 60 grand less than you say, and obviously home mortgages are the driving reason behind debt...not just frivolous spending choices
