Anyone know how this would work? How many tickets would be available and what kind of chance I would have as an upper deck, 2 psl owner? I know that club level has an advantage.

Do you have two accounts, or one? The number of seats per account do not affect your chances - I have been told.
Odds aren't great. Assuming they follow the same approach as 2000: suite holders get 1:1, club suites get a better ratio than general admission. There are a few thousand total available to each team.

I thought you had to have your ticket money in upfront before the first due date to even be considered if we ever made it to the Superbowl.

I won it in 2000. You get a letter about now (or maybe in a week or so) telling you that if the Ravens make the Super Bowl, you're entitled to tickets. Then, after the AFC Championship Game win, you have a couple of days to bring that letter to the Stadium box office plus some ID and you buy the tickets there. And there will be a bunch of scalpers there to offer to buy them from you. No F--king way was I going to do that!
I have one PSL with one seat and I was allowed to buy two tickets (last row of upper deck, mind you) and the seat location was about where my seat is in M&T (Ravens side, goal line). But I went and had a BLAST!! :)

Can you imagine getting one of those letters in the mail? It would be like a Wonka Bar golden ticket. I would seriously run up and down my street, and around the block if I got one.

You'll have to translate that for us Americans, but I'm assuming that's a good thing.

The day I got the letter in 2000, I was quite sick with the flu. I tossed it aside, and said yeah, uh-huh. :crazy:
It wasn't until a couple hours later that it sunk in that I could possibly be going to see the Ravens in the Super Bowl.

How in the hell can anybody not know about Willie Wonka and the chocolate factory?
Freakin' amazing!!
You've never shown your kid the video either?
So does anybody know exactly when they do the lottery drawing?

Well i think they send the "winners" the form the week of the championship game. Then if the ravens win that weekend, you have to take the form down to M&T bank stadium will call and buy the 2 tickets with a few days.
Someone that one it in 2000 would have better info.

In 2000 we got our letters well before the Championship game. We picked our tickets up from Will Call on Tuesday. No checks allowed, either. Our seats were upper deck, but only a few rows up. They were actually pretty good and were in a block of mostly Ravens fans. Only corporate bigwigs (fans on neither team) were in front of us.

You're right, I think we even got the letters before the playoffs started. So maybe some of us will be extra lucky at Christmas-time!
Good Luck to all! :thumbup:
