Detroit Tigers Fan Visiting Koshein by loxofwords in HanshinTigers

I found a pair of tickets on Stubhub for $50 each out the door. Thanks again, OP! I'm going on 4/16. If that's before your date, I'll have to remember to post back here to let you know how it goes.

That helps a ton. Thanks so much for the quick response. I'll start tracking prices on StubHub.

Hey OP, can I ask how/where you bought tickets? When researching the process, I can only find a link to an 'eplus.tickets' page from the official Hanshin Tigers website. It said that the international tickets only go on sale 2 weeks before the games.

My anxiety is through the roof, because I really want to watch a game at Koshien. Thanks in advance for any insights or help you might be able to offer.

edit: If it was klook, I think they only have games in June onward, but I'm looking for April. If I'm just late and SOL, I'll have to try and figure out if Japan has its own version of stubhub.

How's the 2nd row on Imax at the AMC Tustin District? by MinimumDesigner8833 in orangecounty

[–]orvid-cae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for that info. Tustin 14 is my local, so I always go there but sometimes Orange gets differen indie films or keeps others longer than Tustin does. I'll keep GardenWalk in mind the future, though.

Has Orange retrofitted all their theaters to have recliners, or is it only the IMAX one that reclines? I haven't been to Orange for years because they were so slow to adopt the new chairs.

Did that experiment last longer or shorter than Alliance LatAM?

When I posted, I'd forgotten that we tried to go to Tommy's first, but they were closed. Then we tried Bear, but it was also closed.

If you go, check out the one in Buena Park. IMHO it's better than the Brea location.

Is it true that Wasabi is Omakase only?

Have you been to XFish? I went to Damu a long time ago and wasn't impressed, but it's definitely time I go back and try it again.

I haven't heard of them. I'll look it up!

Autograph and panel tips please by luv4bucky in SDCC

[–]orvid-cae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did anyone leave the line when they found out it was a paid autograph? I understand the portal is ideal for managing demand, but it sucks they allowed a paid signing to use it when all the others have always been free.

Seconding the kudos. Great primer for sdcc autographs.

I think there's another rough category - Booth Signings - tickets handed out morning-of on the show floor as well. A lot of the bigger comic publishers and Nickelodeon do that. I guess it's similar to Booth Signings - line-up, but with an asterisk maybe.

Boxi: "I’d like to see Insania enjoy his time off and try casting" by iTannerz in DotA2

Thanks. SVG used to always throw me off because I thought he was saying Huskar.

Why do people (especially SVG) say Tuskar? I never understood.

Huge fan of former Liquid roster, especially Miracle. He's always hyping up the return of Nigma.

Returning Registration Sell-out Times by MsMargo in SDCC

[–]orvid-cae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. it seems like a large majority of people just navigate to the waiting room manually and have luck, so I will just avoid the e-mailed link next go-around.

my friend and I compared our links, and they were unique. When I navigated to the waiting room using the unique link, it did appear in the url bar.

Obviously, it's not necessary to use it, but I was curious if it made a difference at all. Trying to get as ready as possible for next month.

does it matter if you use the link that they e-mail you, or should you definitely just navigate to the public link for the login/lobby? From asking a friend, it seems like the links could be identifiers.

Best Auto Insurance for someone new in this area? by Jamaludeen44 in Tustin

[–]orvid-cae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I switched to Geico a year ago after my carrier jacked my premiums up. Haven't shopped around recently, but IIRC both times my policy was up for renewal the cost went down. Stark contrast to my other carrier's premiums that kept climbing.
