    Wimbledon ballot tickets

    Hit the jackpot, two tickets (but not together) for the centre court final day, 16th July!

    Thing is I am not the greatest tennis fan, but guess I could get to like it!

    So what are the chances of getting these tickets do you think, is this really a once in a life time opportunity?!

    As you may know you are not meant to offer for sale the ballot tickets, so should I just go and have it as a bucket list tick (not that it was on the list), or, well not sure really…

    It's definitely a once in a lifetime opportunity as I know people who qualify for tickets every year and have never got final tickets

    Oh and if you don't want them can I have first dips on them...
    merely at clientco for the entertainment

      Did not realise that these tickets cost so much, face value is £190.

      I thought Coldplay was expensive at £65 recently, and you got something to put on your wrist to wave around!!
      And I bet there's a better than average chance that Cliff Richards won't storm the stage of a coldplay gig to rattle out 'Summer Holiday'.

        Friends of mine go most years and seem to randomly get good seats for good matches. I guess it depends on whether you specifically want the final or are happy to watch any of the matches as to whether it's a true "once in a lifetime" opportunity.
