          Bruce Springsteen, who has been a long-time supporter of Food Banks across the country, has agreed to match any winning auction donation of $10,000 or more (up to $50,000) for the four tickets and he will personally hold a meet and greet with the four guests. To be eligible, the winner must be from Western New York and must not have won a similar promotion with a Bruce Springsteen concert.

The auction winner has a choice between seats or the Pit, as follows: The auction winner’s 4 seats will be located in the loge section (first tier above the floor) within the first five rows, either to the left or right of the stage. The Pit is a corralled-off area on the floor, directly in front of the stage, that houses approximately 200-400 people. It is standing room only and there is no guaranteed placement in the Pit—it’s a first come, first serve area. Everyone with tickets/wristbands to the Pit will form a line to enter (this line is also first come, first serve) and when the gates to the Pit open, everyone enters from whatever position you hold in that line. Once inside, the Pit is a General Admission area.

            The E Street Lounge passes will enable the auction winner to go to a designated area to relax and have a drink before the show
(a cash bar is available)—It does not promise or guarantee a meeting with any of the artists.

            The Food Bank will notify the winner on Thursday, Nov. 19 after 3 p.m. and the winning tickets can be picked up at the Artist Will Call window located in the Box Office from 6 p.m. on, day of the show.
