Looking for Advice from Season Ticket Holders

[LRT]

I'm looking for some advice from those of you with Skins seasons tickets. After years of being on the waiting list, we were notified in December that our number is up and that we were eligible for season tickets. The timing was perfect because we had just learned that we're being transfered this summer from overseas back to Washington.

So, we've paid our deposit and been told that we'll get seats at the top of the upper deck. The only hitch is that I've got a problem with heights...

Now, we've been offered a 50% off deal on club level seats. The catch is that we need to commit to buying a second year at full price. That's a lot more money than regular tickets.

So, for those of you familiar with the ticket situation, do you think its worth it to go for the deal and go down to club level?

Also, the ticket guy is telling me that after two years I should be able to move down to the lower deck, but would have to wait years to move down from the upper deck. Does that sound true? I'm a little worried about the accuracy of that promise, since I was also told that I'd have a chance to go into a lottery for lower deck seats when I paid my deposit in December but have since been told that there is no such lottery.

(Maybe I'm being too suspicious of the ticket guys, but my life experiences have made be suspicious, I'm afraid.)

I've been looking forward to getting season tickets almost my whole life and now that it's so close I don't want to make a decision that I'll regret. And, since I don't know anyone with season ticket experience, I'm turning to you guys for advice.

Thanks,
Landon
