We never had a supply issue so have to ask. How does it all work and what happens if your unavailable as pre arranged trip etc. Can you simply reply. Three top 3 preference sections and best available.

I've always done it remotely anyway - I just have to find the 5-10 minutes to lock myself away with an internet connection. You can connect to the seating diagram at anytime, so I will log in early and just scope out what's available and write down my favorites. I'll do this about an hour in advance. That way, by the time it's my turn, I know exactly what my selection is and I don't get passed by due to taking too long.

Pretty nice.

Did I miss it or at my age have I just forgotten, what they said about how many years this seating will be for? I know they have been for 4 years but if we get what we are hoping for with the new stadium timeline I assume this seating is only for 2 years. Anybody?

I called them because I have a surgery on my selection date. I was given few options. Keep my seats from season past, get best available from one section I pick before hand or wait until selection has ended and pick from availability.

None of those choices sound great. Do you have a friend you trust to pick your seats. I picked seats for friends last reseating since they were going to be on a cruise.

So has everyone gotten an email at this point? Because I have still not gotten one...

Seriously, did you look in Spam folder? Sometimes, some legit emails of mine end up there (not from ODU)

I never got one. I had to call the office to find out my time.

I emailed them this morning to ask.

I got an email Monday but also got a snail mail letter with time and date today.

Crap mine is on 6/9 around noon i must be a low roller. Please tell me there will be another round of this after the first stage of stadium is built or at least sometime in the next 3 years

I would fully expect to do another round of seating once the stadium is built. It would be awfully strange to try to shoehorn people in to seats that are near their existing seats. Plus, it's usually every 3 years so I doubt it will extend beyond that at least.

We got offered a chance to upgrade seats last year, so even if you don't get what you want, you might be able to get new seats the next year. We ended up in a pretty good spot, except we are on the visitor side. As long as we can at least hold what we have, I'll be happy.

Got mine in mail today. Never got the email but whatever as long as I got the info.

Same thing happen to me. Picking within an hour of my bud, hoping to stay close. 7th at 10:20

Yeah, I got 2.5 hours apart from my friend so hoping we can get next to each other.

You guys do know you can bid seats as a group, right? The person with the lowest priority points, i. e. the latest selector, can select seats for all of you.
