For the LD holders who received less desirable tix yet ended up in the pit: any strategies on getting that result?

When you're walking in, hold up your wrist and show no fear. That's how my friends got in, and I didn't! Also, time it to walk in when several other people are all going in at the same time.

it's even easier if you have LD wristband (like they had for Europe) or any other wrist band matching the color of the day

For Orlando, I double dipped. Two for me and two for my wife, and we both got the absolute crappiest nosebleeds in the highest upper level as far away from the stage as possible. Truly may as well have been in the parking lot.

Once inside, my wife went to guest services and asked if we could be relocated.

They put us in those lowers straight back, but with the obstructed view of the light towers blocking a sizable portion of the stage.

It was better, but I was still unhappy. I checked Ticketmaster and noticed a large swath of unsold side view lowers, so we snuck over there. Figured we could go back to the other seats if we had to but nobody ever came, so we watched the whole show from there.

Couldnt see Steve Jordan at all, and Daryl was missing half the time, but we could see the core three just fine and when Mick - and occasionally Ronnie - came to the ramp, they were right there:

But anyway, I know Lucky Dip is a gamble but I never expected to get seats as bad as the ones we were originally assigned. Whatever!

I did, and still got rejected in Seattle. I had fear in my eyes.

I bought lucky dip tickets for night 2 but can no longer go on Sunday. Does anyone know any way I could switch the tickets or am I just completely out of luck?

I relocated from LD obstructed view to a open row around sect 136? row N, ended up filling except the 2 seat we were at!

You have to look like you know what you're doing. Confident.

Carry a ladder if all else fails!

Which show are you talking about? Chicago 2?

OR...finally get pit tickets when some new ones drop, and invite your children to use your lucky dips.

I had lucky dips for night 2 but cannot go that night. So now I need to go to night 1.

Ok. I may be interested in your pair for Chicago 2 if we can figure out a way to transfer them.

LD wristbands and PIT wristbands were the same color (with different writing on them however).

That’s very careless or inconsiderate of the promoters, isn’t it?

It's certainly disquieting.

Speaking of LD tickets, my wife and I had them for the Orlando concert and were handed an envelope at will call that contained Pit B tickets. Whooohoooo, hard to believe that was the 2nd time in a row that our LD purchases turned into Pit tickets. Well, this good fortune turn sour real quick. Nobody in charge at Camping World Stadium seemed to know what gate to go too for entry so finally an employee said gate C so thats where we went. Not only was the 6pm open entrance delayed until 6:30pm, and keep in mind we were 2nd in line at this point, when it came time to scan our pit B tickets, the scanner said inactive and the ushers had to get a supervisor over to our location to double check them. She said the same thing, the tickets were showing inactive and we would have to go back to the box office and get it straighten out. Had to get out of line, walk a good distance back to the box office, stand in line again waiting our turn. After explaining what had happen in the first line with our LD tickets being rejected, the customer service rep said she would get someone who could help and she did. She explained that LD tickets that were for the pit had to go to Gate A (or maybe it was Gate 1). She said we should have been told that when we were handed the tickets to start with which of course we never were told. We finally got in at 7:30pm and by the time we got to Pit B of course it was packed with no chance for a decent spot. It took over an hour to get this fiasco settled and really took a lot of excitement out of getting Pit B tickets to start with. Despite the unfortunate turn of events, we still were able to enjoy a great concert but it would have been so much better had we not had the troubles we encountered getting in.
