you dont just go to the draft....you have to get tickets which are incredibly hard to get.....unless i guess if this outside stuff is true and they have a made in america style event where tens of thousands of people go but then it wont be like really going to the draft

i know the past 2 years in chicago they have done a lottery for tix and only give out like 2,000-3,000.

wait, so a fan cant just go to the draft and walk in ? one has to be lucky enough to get a ticket ?

really ?

No I'm not joking

That's what I heard some NFL official say on the radio

I heard that too. Cool as farg if the weather isn't lousy.

smeags · September 12, 2016, 04:12:54 PM

be a shame if true, that means the "real" fans wont go.

Diomedes · September 12, 2016, 05:19:53 PM

it used to be that anyone could attend. I went two years running when it was at MSG. Was there when Eli and Rivers were drafted. You just had to get in line early enough. Then the third year I went they changed it and I couldn't get in. It was cool to be in the room. If you can't get in there, don't bother going.

smeags · September 14, 2016, 10:05:18 AM

I would def want to be in the room. take it all in and enjoy the process.

is this lottery done with ticket holders of the host city or an even bigger pool ?

So is anyone actually going to this shindig? I just looked up flights and it's cheap as farg to fly up that week. I'm thinking of flying in the day of and then flying home Saturday. The Phils play the Marlins @ 1:05 on draft day too.

Let's do this!

Sgt PSN · January 28, 2017, 09:36:24 AM

I'm still planning on going. I have no clue how it all works as far as getting "in" to watch picks though. Google searches just come back with these shady sites offering "premium draft experiences." That sounds expensive And probably a scam.

Rome · January 28, 2017, 10:21:41 AM

Unless it's offered by a member of the Nigerian Royal Family, it's probably legit.

MDS · January 28, 2017, 11:45:02 AM

i will certainly check out the scene at some point but im feeling the 1st round night is going to be a melting pot of methed up white trash from kenzo and trump supporters

pass

Sgt PSN · January 28, 2017, 11:48:05 AM

So it's going to be like every tailgate ever.

MDS · January 28, 2017, 11:52:27 AM

basically but you wont be able to distance yourself from them....everyone is going to be in one small area.
