Flashseats is the eTicketing system for the Q. If you have Flashseats, you simply arrive at the game with your credit card or drivers license. The user at the gate will scan your credentials and they print the ticket right before your eyes. If you invite a friend to join you at the game, you simply email the ticket to them via Flashseats, they logon to accept the ticket and then can receive the ticket at the gate.

When Flashseats first launched, they also allowed season ticket holders to sell their tickets through a bidding process that was safe and secure. You could buy tickets/transfer tickets just before the game which was a huge plus for anyone looking to find a last minute deal because the tickets were electronic. Something that Stubhub does not offer for Indian’s games because they require a paper ticket.

Flashseats suspended the buy/sell feature pending the outcome of a lawsuit by Ticketmaster.

As of May 23^rd, Ticketmaster and Flashseats settled. So that means that users can now buy and sell their playoff tickets!

GO CAVS!

For those of you who do not already know about the CVSR, the railroad operates a stretch of track [...]]]> Last night, I was confirmed as a member of the board of trustees for the Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad.

For those of you who do not already know about the CVSR, the railroad operates a stretch of track between Cleveland, Akron, and Canton which travels through the Cuyahoga Valley National Park. The CVSR is a regional gem. If you have never ridden the train – it is a relaxing and very scenic experience. It is a truely unique way to experience the nature found in our national park.

The CVSR is looking for riders! Please check out their web site for a calendar of special events (like the “Day out with Thomas” or Wine Train) and take a ride. Also, consider bringing your bike for their bike-a-board program. For just $2 you can ride the train one way and then bike the tow path back to your car.

I am happy to promote and share in the mission of the CVSR and encourage all of you to also become involved. I thank them for their appointment.
