I echo those setiments. Hope every who's going have a great time
Going all the way to Athens,spending all that money,taking time away from their lifes and winning the CL,they are about to have the time of their lives.
Getting the buzz now, armed with a bundle of euros, bring it on you lousy tout barstewards!!
There's a few emails going round with the following pointer:
Just saw this posted on another site:
Ok, now for the update that most of you want to know about, but don't want
to hear...
Tickets are very very tough to find. 75% of the people here do not have them
and are looking for them. One person got caught and arrested for selling
them at 9000 each. Yes, 9000 Euros. (The ****ty thing is, there are 5
tickets gone to the police to use now as "evidence") What a friggin joke. We
have been approached by a few people, and they are usually in the 2000
range. I can't get anyone down to under 1750, as they know the supply and
demand of it all and know that there are so many people here without
tickets.
I've heard reports of people who *haven't* been here saying that they are
going for 2-300E, but damned if I could find them. If I could I would buy
them immediately for you all. If you get a chance to get tickets for under
1000 before you leave, then take them. We are meeting up with the Athens LFC
supporters later today, but even they said they don't have tickets or access
to any. I already asked.
The only ones i have seen for 400E have been fakes. they were good fakes
mind you, but since I have my own tickets, I knew what to look for. the
hologram wasn't right in most of them, and the one guy that I saw that was
selling them even had 2 different types of pictures where the holigram was
supposed to be. Not the brightest tout I've seen.
That's it for now all. Any questions or issues, give me a shout.
See you here, and make sure you bring your singing voice.
============================================
as for the fakes:
Was studying a real one yesterday. Look for the perforations down the
lefthand edge. The hologram shows an embossed mark on the back of the ticket
where it's been stamped down. Also the white stripe on the front, if you
angle it just right and have good eyesight you can just barely make out
ATHENS 07 written along it. It shows better with a strong UV light, if you
happen to have one with you!
