Salem, OR - Portland Timbers fan Gary Andrews stated that he is spending the entire CONCACAF Champions League final day emailing out to various Timbers group email accounts trying to figure out if he has a Timbers Ticket Representative this year who can answer his questions.
“I don’t think I’ve had an actual assigned ticket representative in over 2… maybe 3 years,” stated Andrews. “So look, it’s not like I’m ignoring the game, but the last 5 emails I sent haven’t gotten a response and no one seems willing to talk about my season tickets, much less about how I can get ADU seating for my brother-in-law at an upcoming game. The only communication I get is about possible group sales for luxury boxes.”
Sources indicate that Andrews feels increasingly disconnected from the team over the past three years as even simple requests over gameday items have gone by the wayside.
“I’d just like to know that someone is reading my emails,” stated Andrews. “I understand that I sent some heated emails over the past few years and I know that I moved to Salem; but it’s like I don’t exist to them. I held on to my season tickets for over 10 years. At this point, I’d just like someone to tell me blank platitudes. It honestly feels like a black hole over there, and even if I get someone assigned to me they are either leaving again soon or they don’t respond.”
The Nutmeg News will have more on this as Andrews gets a notification on his phone, picks it up thinking its from his email application and turns on his phone only to find out that it was a notification that the CCL final just kicked off.
