Mine is today at 2:12. What an odd time. We'll see if there's anything to improve. I kind of doubt it, but it will be fun to see how many/few empty seats there are.

I went today at 12:30 and I moved back a row and from section 108 to 112 right next to the visitors tunnel and saved a bunch of money.($5000) Also talked Rod4sooners into getting a ticket. There are some some great seats available so good luck to everybody I hope you get what you want.

I went @ 4:30...NOTHING in my $$ range. Needed four--same row side by side or two & two stacked--there were three back row in one section, believe 113. The remaining inventory were singles throughout the other three sections we reviewed. 103, 108 and 113. Thus, staying put in 112 just over Visitor's tunnel. It appeared to me that there was very little action for folks moving or upgrading. Rep said with 92% renewals the inventory would be limited and being late in day two reduced the options.
Hope to see more of you Bobby along with those cute kids. Rod where did you land?

There was nothing better in my section, and in fact there was only one single in the whole section. If I'd moved all the way across the arena there were two seats available a bit better than mine. So, I'm staying put. But I would think inventory would change, because if people do move their old seats become available. I'm not going to bother going back to check, however.

I had same thoughts also, but just did not seem to be much happening. Most of the computers were empty; Thunder reps chattin each other up and very few fans lQQking at new seats. Think lots of folks like what they have and if can't find better in same $$ then they don't move.
Sales rep did suggest Upgrade but my budget is firm as well as the others in my group. She did "sell" some on the idea of Special event rental of a suite to improve Priority points but I'm not sure it would help very much. Maybe with some improvement of the economy next season some folks will Upgrade therefore opening up some of the mid-price seating.
I'm ready for some Basketball back in the Ford...com'on October!

this will be my first true event. how do these things work? can you actually "test drive" the seats and actually go sit in them and see what your view of the court would be, or do you just go to a computer monitor, see what is available and pick from there? i am hoping the chance to move up a row or two exists, but am currently up in row m of sec 303.

great! thanks for the info. i'm looking forward to it! i hope i'm not setting my expectations too high though. my rep said it was almost like a guarantee that there would be more options at the relocation event - but that was from a sales rep, haha.

Relocation event? Is that later on in the Summer? I wasn't able to move to a better place (in the same price range) today.

I don't go down until tomorrow. I doubt I will be getting any better seats than the aisle seats I already have.

Long time lurker.
Got a nice upgrade on my tickets today for the same price. The only bad part is it made me so ready for B Ball season. October can't get here soon enough.

After getting to test drive a few seats on Friday, I decided to upgrade. I am very happy with my new location, so a successful event for me.

Section 327 -Row F
I moved from high-up in 313 to 317 along an aisle right above the concourse-entrance.
This would nearly seem like a down-grade, but I sat in both seats, and I kind of like the view from right behind the basket (more than the corner-seats I originally ordered). I feel closer, and I feel like i have a more complete view of the court.
Either way, this will be my first season a Season-Ticket Holder, and I think that the organization has great fan-services.

Storm, I hope we can get you to OKC sometime soon to sit INSIDE our Ford Center. Granted, your current seating arrangement is very economical, convenient and you getta enjoy BD & GL; however, Avid fans like you should be here in body as well as soul.
PS. when we have a game or two where travel on icy roads is necessary I will be envying YOU!
Thunder UP!

Storm when the schedule comes out look for 1 or 2 games to go to book a hotel and buy the tickets and come to OKC and let us know so we can welcome you to OKC

You don't even know the half of it! Reasonable ticket prices (free is VERY reasonable), you can bring in your own food and drink, sometimes you get the giveaway items if you talk with the sponsors, it's almost like a suite! Then again, you can't purchase a game program from 2,000 miles away.

Storm: If you can find a cheap way to OKC, I will GIVE you my two tickets to a game or go with you if you don't bring someone... Section 102, 3rd Row. I could even make it special... say, a game against the Trailblazers?

BTW StormFan, this is a serious offer. I know the tickets would only be a fraction of the travel cost, but you would at least be guaranteed some good seats.

Storm already has offer from me for lodging at a Downtown three-star hotel. ONE Block from the Ford.
We have someone on this Forum with Air-miles to get our Seattle connection to OKC for a weekend series?

Come on now, that's too much. If/when I make it to OKC, I will pay my way. Besides, flying goes against my beliefs. Beliefs that if man were meant to fly, God would have given him wings!

Be sure and let it be known when you're going to visit. I'm going to be in Dallas by then and I think it would be fun to have an OKCThunderfans gathering to greet ya properly :)

Or you can just man up and do like me. Get on the plane, but grip the seat handles till the blood drains from your hands. Leave your marks on the seat handles!!!!!!
