hmm thats really strange... here in the states, they let us get tickets for events in canada, as long as we tell them its in canada. you should try going to a ticketmaster in person and saying you want to go to a US event and see if they let you.. i don tknow why it would work one way but not the other...
if all else fails, yea, you can just order them online through ticketmaster usa, your credit card will do the exchange rate for you and charge you accordingly.. and then you can have them mailed to you, or picked up at will call. but if you are buying htem this early i HIGHLY recommend just getting them mailed to you, because will call might be very sticky and hard to figure out at an event of this size.
oh and about hotels, i did find one thing so far and i can look more..
i guess there is a travelodge right in downtown, its not walking distance from the event but its up near the seattle center in the middle of downtown. its only about 80$ us for a 2 person room, so 40 each (i think thats like, 60 canadian... for a downtown hotel, thats around the cheapest itll be). AND the good part is that they offer a shuttle (its really a bus but they call it a shuttle) from vancouver bc, to the hotel! it only costs about 25$ US dollars i guess which is a lot cheaper than youll spend on a greyhound. i have a friend who did that, and she said it takes about 4 hours, its normally 2.5 about by car, but still, you could just fly into bc, take a bus to the hotel, and then take the bus back whenever you are ready!
and about getting to the event, yea like i said, as long as there are 4 of you and no more, i could hook you up with a ride im sure... or you could maybe take a cab.
ill find out more hotel info pretty soon
oh and if you are gonna do a hotel, i recommend making reservations soon.. lots of hotels i checked didnt even have openings around that sime since its around new years.
