Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 That's actually insane... I thought I saw some non-sold out games there late in the season too.
G-Snarls Community Moderator Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Yankees tickets for the Wild Card game start at $52. Crazy! That less than cade value for the cheapest Jays playoff tickets. WTF happened to the market for baseball tickets in New York? I don't know Yankee stadium has somehow become notorious for the number of empty seats during games. Weird.
HERPDERP Old-Timey Member Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Yankees tickets for the Wild Card game start at $52. Crazy! That less than cade value for the cheapest Jays playoff tickets. WTF happened to the market for baseball tickets in New York? There was an article awhile back. The two major points is that the Yankees right now are not a team that is marketable. Jeter is gone, and they don't have any good superstars. Who exactly can you cheer for on that team, someone you can look forward to at the ballpark? Nobody. The Yankees are the most boring team heading into the post season. The second is that the Mets have taken over as the talk of the town. Your casual baseball fan is going to want to watch a talented and much younger team.
jaysblue Old-Timey Member Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 I don't know Yankee stadium has somehow become notorious for the number of empty seats during games. Weird. Yeah going there to catch the Jays in September, it was so easy to find cheap tickets on Stubhub or Vivid Seats. The stadium was mostly empty as well. Face value, Yankees tickets are way too expensive. There are so many tickets available on the secondary markets at like half the price.
jaysblue Old-Timey Member Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 That's actually insane... I thought I saw some non-sold out games there late in the season too. That last home stand looked empty. As well, that huge series with the Jays in September, you would think Yankee Stadium would be rocking. It was like watching a Leafs game at the ACC.

jaysblue Old-Timey Member Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 What are Mets tickets going for? Cheapest for Game 3 is $160 USD and thats for standing room.
G-Snarls Community Moderator Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 What are Mets tickets going for? More than Jays Most games 160-180 USD and up Yeah. That must be the hot ticket in town.
Captain Adama Old-Timey Member Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Awwwww. Poor Yankees. The day I feel sorry for the Yankees is the day I finally win the BBDL.
HERPDERP Old-Timey Member Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 I took a look at actual prices paid for Cubs World Series tickets...sooo many in the thousands.
Impreza89 Verified Member Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Hey guys, Long time lurker, is there anyone here selling tickets in the 500's? If so, i'd be interested. Also, are there any other sources to purchase tickets apart from StubHub?
HERPDERP Old-Timey Member Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 User Actions Following Ben Nicholson-SmithVerified account @bnicholsonsmith #BlueJays play Game 1 at 4:07 ET if #Yankees advance, 3:37 if #Astros advance
jays_fever Old-Timey Member Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 If its 407 I could probably make it DT to watch it live. Rooting for Yanks!
burlingtonbandit Old-Timey Member Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 I took a look at actual prices paid for Cubs World Series tickets...sooo many in the thousands. Makes sense. Chicago is one of in not the best Sport towns in NA and the Cubs have been bad for a while. Also Wrigley field is one of the smaller venues so there isn't nearly as much supply. Cubs season ticket holders and fans actually go to the games while look at Toronto and it seems like half the people who bought tickets are looking to sell them to make a few bucks.
burlingtonbandit Old-Timey Member Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Game 2 at 12:37pm Brutal lol
Rajais Mitten Verified Member Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Excellent let's lower those prices some more! lol
jaysblue Old-Timey Member Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Game 2 at 12:37pm Brutal lol Game 2 prices are going to drop. Should be able to get 500 levels for under $100/per seat.
LGBJ29 Verified Member Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Yeah I just dropped my game 2 tickets both on here and on Stubhub
Pulk_Pull Verified Member Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Looks like waiting may have panned out. Really appreciate the help @jaysblue, but I'm going to try and hold off for some 500 level seats for 2x the cost. May have to pay a bit more but given I was willing to go $350 for 2 last week I'm feeling a bit better...
eastcoastjaysfan Old-Timey Member Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Absolutely retarded. Thanks MLB.
Pulk_Pull Verified Member Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Absolutely retarded. Thanks MLB. Absolutely awesome for people holding out for tickets. Thanks MLB.
imsorry4beatinU Verified Member Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 great thing I sold my 113 game 1 tickets on Kijiji for 400$ each and sold 130 A game 2 for $650 stubhub last night. Now, just got to get rid of 113 A for game 2.
imsorry4beatinU Verified Member Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Absolutely retarded. Thanks MLB. Isn't this what you expected with ticket prices?
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 This is SUCH f***ING HORSESHIT, WOW
Trannerd Verified Member Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Brutal. How is anyone supposed to be able to watch that game?!

Trannerd Verified Member Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 I'll have to find some kinda way to stream it I guess.
jaysblue Old-Timey Member Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 I'll have to find some kinda way to stream it I guess. Get MLBTV (only $3.99) and stream it on your computer or on your phone.
