For those who applied to enter the 2004 Frozen Four ticket
lottery -- if you gave a credit card number and can access
your account info online, you might want to check to see if
the FleetCenter has put a "provisional" charge on your card.
If so, you probably have "won" the lottery and will be getting
a confirmation of tickets shortly (assuming the "process" this year
are the same as in the past).

HOWEVER, don't despair if no charge shows up yet....
1) some credit card companies don't show "provisional"
charges, or don't post charges immediately;
2) it's likely that the "priority" and "general" lotteries are
processed at different times.

I'm very happy that my credit card shows a provisional
charge today from the FleetCenter... meaning that I'll be
seeing many of you again next April!    (For the record, I
qualified for the priority lottery, and "probably" have enough
years worth of "priority" to get selected in the first round.)
