All-Star Worlds 2013 Spectator ?

Ok, so since they are clearing the Field house in between each session, how are they going to do that safely and efficiently?

Think about it: people that have paid $90 (for only Monday) to get in...they give up a possibly good seat during the first session, have to wait outside, and hope to get a good seat for the second session? How is this not going to cause people to get antsy and stir up a black Friday worthy crowd?

What type of organization will be displayed to ensure that people who have spent $90 (in addition to parents and athletes) actually get a seat?

Rookie Question too.... The schedules refer to the "Field House" and "Josten's Center". Everyone on FB keeps referring to the "Milk House" which I assume is the same thing as the Field House? But if I go to a ESPN Wide World of Sports map - there is no Jostens center listed (or Field House) - they just list the Milk House? I am trying to find out how close these 2 venues are to each other and it's weird that I can't find Jostens on a map anywhere? SO CONFUSED!! This is my first time to Worlds and my CP is performing.

The two venues are side by side you literally step outside Milkhouse and Jostens is 50 feet away.

The HP Field House used to be called the Milk House, which is why many people refer to it that way. Jostens is right across the courtyard (you will actually pass it on your right as you are heading toward the Milk House) and has a bar attached to it as well as restaurants.

If they pay for all three sessions, then they will be paying $130 for Monday, because it will cost $40 to get into the gates of the WWS complex on Monday, plus another $30 per session. This has to be the case because there are finals taking place in the Josten's center, so the regular $40 admission will still be in effect on Monday as well. So basically, the cost to go to all three days is $40 per day ($120) plus all three sessions at $30 per session ($90), which equals $210. This is the cost of the park hopper, so if you are planning to go to all three days, plus all three sessions, then you might as well buy the park hopper for the same price and also get three days at Disney parks.

Alright so this week I was in Orlando and decided to stop at the Ticket Box Office of the Wide World of Sports. They are about as confused as we are. This is what I was told:

1. Tickets for the sessions for Monday will not go on sale until Sunday night and also Monday morning.
2. They do have a limit on tickets they plan to sell per session, but they don't know what it is.
3. You do need a ticket to get into the WWoS on Monday then you also have to pay the session ticket fee for each session. So the $40 entry covers getting in and teams in jostens....the field house/milk house is the extra $30.

Then I called Varsity/USASF to ask the same questions:

1. Tickets will go on sale only to teams that make finals on Sunday for the Monday sesssions, then they will open it up on Monday for other people to purchase, they have no way of know who people are so I don't see how that will work.
2. They say there is no limit on ticket sales for finals.
3. You don't need a ticket to get into WWoS only the tickets for the Sessions.

Clearly they have some clearing up and communicating to do. I spoke with one of the Managers of the Box Office in person, got her name and hometown as they put it on the badge and she said and I quote ' Ya, we really need to get on the same page with each other, I hope we hear soon'

And there you have it...take it as you may. I purchased tickets for entry for Sun and Monday, hopefully I need both to get into WWoS or someone has some explaining to do.

WAIT.. so you can't buy sessions tickets until the actual monday morning? that's ridiculous!

I could cry i'm so confused.

That is the problem...no ones seems to know the real situation.

Rookie question for anyone familiar with the live broadcast -
Which package do I buy if I want the live broadcast to view on my laptop? I don't want on demand videos or anything like that. Just the live broadcast.
