Pax numbers can definitely be used as a guide for a possible crowd because the Pax is the number of tickets that have been issued. Pax is that old school code used in the hospitality sector, for persons, passengers, patrons. Ticketek use it for that purpose, and we use it as a way to gauge how a game is selling.

The transaction number is the numerical code that is used (with your account code) to bring up information about the order.

The raiders staff member that’s been giving me good access to tickets is expecting a ‘massive’ crowd, so hopefully they get it.

I thought that the crowd against Newcastle was pretty solid tbh. Granted it was the 3pm slot.

Mate I've had pax numbers that I've bought at the gate that are way over and way under the actual attendance, so they're about as useful a guide as dousing rods.

Sliver seating always sells better than the other categories as it's the cheapest way to sit on the side line, and where the majority of ticketed members have their seats. Massive is a subjective term as well. By the Raiders standards anything over about 14-15k could be considered a massive crowd.

The fact is that the pax is the number of tickets issued when you finish your transaction, and it’s usually a good way to predict or track the expected crowd and often within a fairly close range for most stadiums and events. Your experience means shit all because you've given no examples.

The larger the pax, the larger the crowd. The smaller the pax, the smaller the crowd.

Edit: spelling

44,015, Broncos v Storm round 26 2015 is the biggest Thursday crowd. I think we will see 42-43.5k. It’s over to the stadium members!

I've just noticed that the Broncos are running a 1 game membership campaign for the storm game. Pretty much all of level 6 is available and will eventually be loaded on ticketek. Pretty silly from the Broncos ticketing folk to keep that many from general sale on the ticketek site as many would have been sold - not many people would be aware of this membership.
