perhaps Tree can offer a heads up when these tickets will go on sale so you can scoop them up - ringside are usually around $40-50 a pop, so not a ridiculous amount.
Ask BlueHen - very much worth being able to interact with these guys (and have your mug on DVD!)

I'll check with the ticket people in ROH to see exactly what this means.
Species - if you have a chance, go to the show, and splurge, and get the front row seats if it's your first show. it's worth it.
odds are pretty good i'll go to these shows, if i can find a reasonable plane ticket.

I want to see Tree and Species front row... and then a similar write up with pictures like Species Yankee trip.
"oh my goodness gracious... of all the amazing things... The Briscoes just flipped up over the top rope to the arena floor!!! and look at this guy in the front row with the A-Rod jersey handing them a chair!!"

Oh I would LOVE to do ringside! Tree, if you can at least help with the hook up, that's $50 I would drop in a heartbeat. I'd love to go front row. Should I order a Punk "Straight Edge/Hard Core" T-shirt to wear? lol
I've been to 2 WWF shows back in the late 1980's. One show was highlighted by a Randy Savage vs. Ricky Steamboat IC Title cage match that was pretty sweet. Other guys I saw included: Hercules Hernandez, JYD and Volkov/Iron Shiek (hilarious - loved them).
I actually gave some thought to going to GAB in San Jose, but couldn't. Then the next night RAW was up my way, but I had a freakin' work-related golf tourney to go to instead. I've been meaning to catch a WWE show for years.
This would be even better!

I'd probably go with a Briscoe Bros shirt... they are the best tag team on the planet. ROH T-Shirts
After that... maybe Nigel McGuinness. As ROH keeps getting bigger - he's probably the breakout star who is WWE ready. I have the No Remorse Corp t-shirt myself.

And maybe order one of the PPVs (average about 10 bucks) right now or in August... that'll put some names with the faces you will get to see live.

Glad you like the Nigel shirt, GO, as i had a hand in designing it.
The woman who designed the shirt had the whole british flag in the background set, but couldn't figure out how to complete it. She was going to go with a soccer ball.
i said that Nigel's silhouette was very distinctive because of his hair, and maybe she should go with that. lo, and behold, the new nigel shirt.
i'm pretty partial to the new Delirious shirt ( this page, scroll to the bottom )...really different from most ROH shirts...
Species - i'll find the price out for you. how many tickets would you want, and are you committing if i tell them to hold them? think carefully about that.

Tree - I'm checking with 1 buddy to see if he'd like to go. I've always wanted one of those ringside front row seats. Will get back to you ASAP.

from the ROH website:
-When you buy a general admission ticket to the Fanfest on Sunday you can automatically watch the ROH show. You need some type of Fanfest ticket to get into the venue. -If you purchase a VIP ticket from Wrestlefest (I believe they start at $199) you will also get access to the floor seats for the ROH event. -1st and 2nd Row ringside tickets will be reserved seats exclusively for Ring of Honor fans through the ROH website.
i would imagine they'll start selling tickets soon, and front row will sell out within minutes...

Species - any more thoughts on this? we've got a couple shows this weekend, so it would be an ideal time for me to stake my claim to a couple of ringside seats with the bossman...
