Waiting

The scramble for tickets for the Rugby World Cup this year, known as RWC2019, started again in January. Ballots were held in 2018 but many people, myself included, were unsuccessful and had to wait for this general global ticket sale opportunity,

The 'doors opened' on Tuesday 15th January, appropriately at 20.19pm. As ticket sales were on a first come, first served basis, the queue quickly grew to over 100,000 within the first hour!

I, myself, reached the front of the queue from 110,000 after 17 hours, on Wednesday afternoon!

The tickets that remained were not for the popular games and were also more highly priced than many people would be willing to pay, I suspect.

What is the longest queue you have waited in?
