I had always thought that the reason some of us were unsuccessful was because of the New Zealand supporters getting in on the tickets (amoung other conspiracy theories about using a Visa instead of a MC)
Turns out we may be able to blame the French for this! France vs New Zealand is also limited, but I contest that this is one of the great rivalries in Rugby and likely a game not to be missed. But the France vs Canada game isn't the only Canada game with limited seats available! Canada vs Japan has no premium seats left either.
Or there could be another theory...
maybe there is going to be a huge Canadian presence at these games!
Likely it is all the factors including the size of the stadium in Napier.
Pool A | France | Canada | Sunday, 18 Sept 2011 | Napier | NA | NA | NA | - | - | $31 | $15 |
Pool A | Tonga | Canada | Wednesday, 14 Sept 2011 | Whangarei | NA | $61 | - | - | - | $31 | $15 |
Pool A | Canada | Japan | Tuesday, 27 Sept 2011 | Napier | NA | NA | NA | - | - | $31 | $15 |
Pool A | New Zealand | Canada | Sunday, 2 Oct 2011 | Wellington | $256 | $194 | $143 | NA | NA | - | - |
I don't think I solved the case, but perhaps I have provided some useful information to our comrades attempting to scoop up tickets to the Canada games.
