southsider2k5 Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 I don't ever remember hotel rooms being available this long into a Soxfest ticket sale. The crazy thing is this fest is a ton smaller than the old ones too. I am still really shocked they didn't even acknowledge the recession and try to do some cheaper stuff for fans, and it looks like they are paying for it by not being able to get people to come at those prices. For those who can go, it should be a great year, and not very big crowds. Honestly, those are the best years for the fest, because it is so much more relaxed with out tons of people everywhere.
