I'm Not Too Pissed, Today.
I am not nearly as full of piss and vinegar as I was yesterday morning. Maybe it was the Wild Turkey 101 Manhattan I poured myself last night at 9:30. They tend to be mellowing. I generally allow myself two, but last night I limited myself to one.
The weather is nice here in the North Atlanta suburbs. It's not quite summer, and with our late onset of spring it's more like the middle of spring. We are experiencing nice cool mornings, good warmth during the days, and nice breezy evenings. As you fellow anglers know, this means that the bass bite is on. Business is sort of slow because of the lack of interest in the U.S. Open and we are just beyond the end of the major national event season so I have been hitting the old bass pond a lot lately. The bass pond is full of fish and at times they are hitting just about anything you will throw out there. My good and helpful friend, Joel Pharr, was kind enough to give me a Heddon Zara Spook topwater lure and if you get out there right around sundown you can just tear them up with it. James Heddon was a Michigan Beekeeper and the creator of the first artificial fishing lure. Why is it that all things great in fresh water fishing have some connection to Michigan? Go on out to your local Bass Pro or hit the web site http://www.basspro.com/servlet/catalog.OnlineShopping and pick yourself up one of these great lures.
Now that we are approaching the warmer days of summer it may be just about time to start thinking, talking, and pricing the fall football schedule. Here at Alpha Tickets we start to get buyers for the fall slate of college and pro football usually sometime in June. The Atlanta Falcons have what looks like a great home schedule with a home opener on a Monday night against the Philadelphia Eagles, another Monday night game against the New York Jets, and a home game against the Patriots. The Falcons tickets were hot last year and should be even hotter this season. We have already priced pre-sales for the three games mentioned above and you can find live inventory on our web site at http://www.alphatickets.com/. I still think that Michael Vick and the Falcons could find themselves basking in the warmth and sunlight of Detroit come February. I really have not spent enough time trying to figure out who is going to be the team to beat here in the old Southeastern conference. I hope that it is my Alma Mata, Auburn University, but after sending as many to the pros as we did in this years draft I feel we may be slightly challenged in some areas but only time will tell. My good friend and college football expert John Poggendorf, of Prescott, Arizona, thinks that the Volunteers of Tennessee will be the team to beat and he fully expects his beloved Trojans of Southern California to face off against the Vols in the Rose Bowl for all the marbles next January. As far as the tickets go you can almost never go wrong stocking Tennessee tickets, Auburn as a good home schedule with their arch nemesis the University of Alabama visiting in November and Georgia Tech as their home opener, and the excitement level for Georgia should be high but maybe not as high as last year when they were convinced they would wear the national championship crown at the end of the season.
The NASCAR summer schedule appears to be a bit weak in our opinion. The races in Charlotte last weekend and this weekend have not been a great ticket. We are seeing softer sales with Michigan, the Poconos, and Loudon. The Bristol night race is about the same as it ever is, and the Brickyard actually is selling a little better than normal. If you need Sharpie 500 tickets or any of the other races on the NASCAR schedule please visit our web site at http://www.alphatickets.com/.
I am off to the bank to pick up cashiers checks for Bonnaroo VIP tickets. The annual hippie fest in Manchester, Tennessee is fast approaching. The band list this year is stronger than ever, if I did not have to spend three days in a tent in the middle of a field in hot ass Tennessee with a bunch of stinky, liberal, hippies I would go. The General Admission tickets are not sold out yet, and may not sell out. However, there does seem to be a market for the VIP tickets which always sell out. I have been paying $625 each for the tickets which is a bit more than in years past but we have been able to turn them for $745-$795 per ticket.
Until Tomorrow - Adios.
