Scanning into the elipse is chance.....or if you have a kid or handicapped person with you or if the security people or Clearchannel lady likes you there is a good chance they will let you in. There really is no rhyme or reason to it. We waited in line all day in Vegas....4 of us in our party. One of our 4 tickets scanned and they let all 4 of us go in together. It was an experience of a lifetime. Don't know if I'd do it again. I really find it pathetic that there is so much bicketing and moaning about people's jealousies or insinuations about folks getting into the elipse, some over and over again. Isn't it all about the music anyway? Shouldn't really be where you are, if you truly love U2....just being in the house should be experience enough. Like I said, I've enjoyed the experience this tour and still have one more show before the end of 2005......it's just a hit or miss thing. Enjoy the experience, enjoy the GA line up, and wherever you end up for the show, making the best of it makes for a much better experience for ALL (there were some REAL ASSHOLES in the Vegas elipse, lemme tell ya! But I didn't let it spoil my time).
