I just got a call back saying the reason I got the error message is because I didn't use a college email address. What the hell.

Do you know anybody in college that can help you out?

[justintime2989]

Hmmm weird since I didn't get that and I also didn't use my college email even though I have one

Yeah I'm sure that's not the problem since others have bought the tickets with a regular email address and I get that same error message every time I order tickets from the website regardless of what the promotion is. They are just denying me.

true, but unfortunately it's filled with ranger and flyer fans.

In other words, self-loathing jerk-offs who like to pretend they're from NY or Philly instead of embracing their true roots.

Not really fair. I'd venture a guess that most Ranger or Flyer fans from New Jersey were either fans before the Devils came here, or had parents who were Rangers/Flyers fans. If New Jersey got an expansion baseball team, I'd still be a Yankee fan.

Also, most Flyer fans from Jersey are from Southern Jersey and live much closer to Philly than the Meadowlands or Newark. I would bet for a long period of time, people in Southern Jersey couldn't even watch Devils games on TV. I know that was the case with baseball, until YES came along.

This. I'm a Knicks fan because of my dad. If he was a serious hockey fan, I might be a Rags fan (though I really hated them in 94). Family has a huge effect on sports fans, and aside from playing in a market that has loyalty to 2 other cities, the Devils are still the new kids on the block. The next generation hopefully pushes us over, but it's unreasonable to assume that people who root Rags or Flyers have no state pride.

I was actually a Ranger fan until I was 10 ish years old. My family had me watching hockey games when I was a baby and toddler even.. but the only games we got at the house were Ranger games because you had to pay for Sportschannel at the time. My cousin got a hold of me, gave me a Devils jersey and said "we have no Ranger fans in this family, you'll be wearing this." Then he convinced my parents to get Sportschannel and that's how it started.

I know it's not really fair, but I don't care. I hate those bastards.

The governor of New Jersey and his kids are Ranger fans. Do you have any idea how much that annoys me? Lol, I'm sure Christie's dad was a Rag fan or something, but the fact that our leader roots for the enemy bugs me.

Absolutely. The worst part about it is, if this team makes a run, he will be sitting in a box with JVB like he's the biggest Devils fan in the world.

Nothing was worse than Guilliani transforming himself into a Red Sox fan.

Correct. I live in Mount Laurel, which is only 20 minutes from the Wells Fargo Center. My bro is a Flyers fan, all my friends are Flyers fans (you get the picture). Yet, I convinced my mom, sister and several cousins to come to the good side and cheer for NJ. I dont know what it would take to get MSG to South Jersey, but it would be a huge help for growing the fanbase. I dont get MSG, only Comcast Sportsnet,and I didnt even have Center Ice until the 2003-2004 season. I've been a fan since 98, but I couldnt watch my home state team until I was 12 and even that was through a national sports package. Whenever I see the "Jersey's Team" slogan, I always have a good laugh. Half the state hates us and half the state is not able to watch locally

Man...I can't go to anything this week...but if Game 6 is a reality, I hope they have these discounts still. $27 I can swing...$82.50 is a bit steep right now.

[Mayday]

for me all these kids were devil fans growing up until they hit HS and they became the bitchiest Ranger fans for some reason. I don't get it. Maybe being a Ranger fan looks coolers than being a Devil fan.

I swear on FB one kids status was like "stop talking about the devils, they weren't even in the playoffs last year." yeah, guess you don't know where they were 20 years before that too hahaha

[DevsMan84]

Bottom line is that anything with New York in the title is flat out more glamourous than anything with New Jersey on it.

But really who cares what other people think, just enjoy and support the Devils.

Yup...just like when the Giants had their Superbowl celebration at new stadium....Chris Christie was there even though he's a big Jet fan.

[Chuck the Duck]

And you know who'll be sitting next to him on the float going down Broad Street if this team wins the Cup ...
