    I was told that although he didn't have the exact figures in front of him, the odds of winning the ticket lottery will be between 55-58%.

    He knows exactly how many accounts are left (didn't get tickets through the TAF).

    Simply take the 2,150 (4,300/2) accounts that will get 2 tickets and divide it by the number of accounts that are left (applied).

    So, there are probably no more than 4,000 accounts (season ticket holders) that competing for the 2,150 sets of tickets.

    TAF

    My question is: If you're a TAF member but weren't high enough on the priority list, are you finished or thrown into the lottery as a season ticket holder?

    Re: TAF

    If you are a TAF member who is a season ticket holder (and you applied by the deadline) but you weren't in the top 2386 -- THEN, you are automatically entered into the lottery.

    If you got ANYTHING because of your TAF rank, then you are NOT ELIGIBLE for the lottery.
