The pre-sale for tickets to UFC 113 in Montreal (on May 8th) did not go very well initially.  People who were in the virtual waiting room for hours on end suddenly were booted out for no reason, and then when they finally got in the pre-sale code they had did not work.

I’m not sure where the blame lies, be it with the UFC or the Bell Centre.  But – I do know a lot of people were very irritated that they had to waste ninety minutes while the problem was fixed.  It is a little bit nerve racking, because you don’t know if the problem is on their end or yours.  Add to the fact that because the events in Montreal sell out so fast, it is very likely that you will not be able to get a ticket.  However, in so saying that, me and my buddies got our tickets, so from our perspective in the end it doesn’t really matter.  We have great seats and did not pay an exorbitant amount of money for them.

Unlike the first two years that I have been, this time I’m taking my camera and taking a lot of photos.  I have met a few fighters in my travels each year to Montreal and hopefully this year is no different.  To a man, every fighter that I have met has been receptive to the fans and classy.
