Dick Allen Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Apr 9, 2018 -> 12:20 PM) Apparently the Sox have some huge charity event tomorrow night so they can't play two tomorrow. Play 2 on Wednesday. It's supposed to be 56. It will feel like 90. Steve Stone will tell us how the ballpark will be lively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 9, 2018 -> 12:10 PM) Print them out, and exchange at the box office. Thanks for the tip. Just bought the cheapest 4 pack of club seats for $12 each. At $67 (including fees) that is cheaper than 1 club seat usually costs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Apr 9, 2018 -> 11:58 AM) A decent amount of teams would get those: Sox, Cubs, Twins, Tigers, Red Sox, Yankees, Mets, Pirates, Indians, Reds, Rockies, Orioles, Nats. Yes, except no to balt/wash as I will arbitrarily use mason dixon line, also no to colorado because it's usually sunny there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Back in the late 90s, Tampa tried to bomb their way to wins. They signed Jose Canseco. There was some rainout or cold out. It might have been one of those days they used to cancel because the Bulls were playing a playoff game At any rate, they played a twi night DH to make up. We arrived the first or second batter, and there was a flyball to CF. McKay Christensen was playing CF for the Sox. We could clearly hear him calling for it 2 feet from the door of the lower concourse. There couldn't have been 100 people in the stands. Today might rival that crowd.

The only problem with the smaller crowds is they shut down so many stands. I was there Saturday and Sunday. I really don't buy much in terms of concessions, but I usually take a lap or 2 to keep the blood flowing, and I was amazed how many stands were not opened.

No bathroom line either. Absolute steal for opening day. Was $20 more than outfield reserve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only problem is he may not get the exact same seats. But it should be something in the same category. It's nice getting premium tickets at a nosebleed price even if technically you could probably get away with buying a cheap ticket and sit somewhere nice. Being where you are supposed to be is a lot less stress, especially if you are there with kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will ask you for your user name and password for that company's sign in to verify that you are a customer for them. I use it as a comcast subscriber on a regular basis.
