    Atlanta is the better team in my opinion, though will definitely be a fun series to watch this weekend!

    Most historic game ever: David Wells throwing a perfect game with a hangover. Don't think we'll ever see another pitcher accomplish that in our lifetime!

    I would go with Zimmer and JBJ over Tapia.

    Imagine if Kikuchi pitched a gem Game 1! Jays would easily be able to lock up the series with Gasuman and Manoah for Game 2 and 3!

    Yeah they'll likely hold their value but they won't be crazy expensive on StubHub. I went to Game 3 of the ALDS in 2016 and I recall tickets weren't that crazy. Even for a night game. World Series will be big tickets or a Game 6 or 7 of the ALCS.

    Yeah I was surprised to see how expensive it was for 500 level seats. $75 each + taxes/fees. Better to watch the games from home. 200 level or 100 level, while more expensive, are far better value. I remember in 2015 and 2016, tickets for the ALDS and ALCS were much cheaper on StubHub the same day of the game, lower prices than the box office. A lot of it was because either the team was losing already in the series and because of start times. The 2016 AL Wildcard game was really the only Postseason game that tickets had higher prices. If the Jays make the ALDS and come back down 2-0, Game 3 and 4 will be far cheaper than the Blue Jays prices currently. That's why I didn't go all crazy this year. Figured it won't be that difficult to get ALDS tickets if I wanted to go to Game 3 or 4.

    Ended up getting Sec 235, Row 9 for Saturday's game. At least I'll get to see one of Gausman or Manoah haha. Hope the Jays clinch that game!

    "Sit tight, we're securing your tickets..." Then they say someone beat me to them haha.

    In previous years, tickets were sold out quick. I'm guessing the high cost (for decent seats will be $300 per pair), along with it being the Thanksgiving weekend (people might be going out of town, spending it with family etc.) and also the uncertainty of start times. Plus ALDS Game 3 and 4, could be elimination games. If the Jays came back to Toronto down 2-0, those seats for Game 3 aren't worth as much and doubt they're would be much excitement for that game from casual fans.

    Site is glitchy though. When you select seats, waiting to process and then they say someone else grabbed them. Figured I would try and grab a pair for Game 2 or 3 or both since they're on a Saturday and Sunday. At least if its an afternoon game, won't be too bad.
  12. jaysblue
    So many seats available for Wildcard Game #1 geez
  13. jaysblue
    I put some money on him hitting a HR haha. +188 odds lmao
  14. jaysblue
    Aaron Judge hits his 61st HR tonight but the Jays still win!
  15. jaysblue
    Where is Aaron Judge?
  16. jaysblue
    Toronto Film Festival was going on as well correct? That could explain why a Friday night game might not have been busy.
  17. jaysblue
    You could either buy one huge mansion or buy 3 beautiful homes in Calgary for $2.3M and all better than that bungalow at Dufferin and Eglinton. Crazy haha.
  18. jaysblue
    For sure the Braves/Padres and Phillies/Cardinals will be given preference over the AL matchups lol. Earliest time the Seattle series would start would be at 3 or 4PM. Or maybe 6PM or 7PM though I bet they give that to one of the two NL matchups. If the Blue Jays play Tampa, games will start at noon or 1PM for sure. If the Jays play the Mariners, either looking at a 3PM-4PM start time or possibly a 6PM or 9PM timeslot if they want to showcase J-Rod on prime time.
  19. jaysblue
    Yeah they always give the Jays awful timeslots. Even in 2015 and 2016, most home games starts at 1PM or 4PM on a weekday which was awful.

    School just started as well for everyone (elementary, high school, college/university).

    Didn't your favourite President announce the pandemic was over? COVID is likely going to be here to stay. Most new variants will be vaccine resistant anyways though those variants will be a lot weaker than previous strains of the virus. Kudos to you for taking the right approach and not letting COVID stop you from enjoying the things you enjoy like sporting events or concerts or hanging out with friends. The way it should be!

    Also, it's the beginning of Fall season and usually this is the time most people get sick with the change in weather, especially when its damp. Always happens. Even I had a sore throat over the last couple of days. I bet a lot of old folks and longtime Jays fans will still be attending games in the Postseason. Also, the games are still an excuse for a lot of the younger casual fans to go out, have some beers and party.
  23. jaysblue
    Yeah also factor in being a Monday night, school night on top of that and on a cold/rainy evening with the dome closed. Not like a Monday night game in the summer with nice weather and the roof open. Do you still follow the number of Covid cases everyday? I get the feeling most people have moved on. Restaurants, bars, malls and even entertainment venues are still packed. The Weeknd concert over the weekend (no pun intended) was sold out. Maybe certain age groups will be more cautious when it comes to attending large events but majority of people in the 20-40 age range likely will still be attending sporting events or concerts.
  24. jaysblue
    Most concerts and entertainment venues this summer across Canada were all packed. Don't think the fear of Covid plays a huge role at all anymore to be honest. Sure maybe for some people, but it's a small minority. Main reasons are likely crappy weather and a crappy economy like you said.
  25. jaysblue
    They probably heard about it on Twitter or on Sportsnet just last night and I'm sure some will be heading down to the dome tonight and Wednesday.
