Haven't paid for tickets at Fenway since like 2005, so I couldn't believe how much these were this AM....

Similar seats at the Ravine look like they're between $122 (Sat. game vs Philly July 29 - Orel bobblehead day) to $140 (Vin jersey night & Fernando ceremony game). The Red Sox gotta know the park is gonna be half full most of the season so they're going to soak people who wanna see the Dodgers and the Yankees (which are actually even more than these were).

Anyway, hit me up if you're going to the game that day and we'll meet up beforehand :nthat:

Edit: Actually, it looks like the Dodgers' home game against the Yankees on Sat. 6/3 are crazy expensive. Similar seats to the ones I got were $200 face value for that game :wow:

Fenway draws a pretty good crowd regardless of how good they are. Don’t remember a time Fenway being half full in a long time.

They haven't been really bad in a long time though. When I used to go all the time during (and just after) college in the pre-championship years they'd only ever sell out Yankee games and some of Pedro's starts, and they were still pretty good back then. If they stink as bad as I hope they will this year I wouldn't be surprised if they draw well below than 30k most of the season. With these types of prices I don't see more than 20k going to midweek games til summer if they start the season terribly.

The owners are public enemy #1 there with how cheap they’ve become. Would not be surprised if their fans stop showing up this season in protest. Plus that team is gonna be trash :lol: Dodger fans gonna come out in droves that series :pimp:

All teams have caught up to the “dynamic pricing” for events. Whether the prices are determined by popularity (the more traffic that event gets on Ticketmaster the higher the ticket climbs) or prices climb for “premium” games. Teams see how much they’re sold on the secondary market, so why sell it to fans for $100 so they can sell it for $160 on stubhub. Might as well they sell them for $160, and that’s what’s happened.
 
After I took out a second mortgage on my house to order Dodgers tickets for Fenway the Sox sent me an offer for $20 tix for any game through May, so I grabbed a pair against the Angels in April. Kinda pumped to see the kid Shohei before he puts on that Dodger Blue next season :nthat:
 
I think Vargas will surprise folks and I expect Outman to keep crushing. The rotation is my main concern, but it'll be a fun season. Kind of weird to not have a constant target on their backs, I think the team will thrive regardless.

Also:

 
I love that the Dodgers collaborate with brands like Mr. Cartoon and Born X Raised. Embracing the LA culture is always a positive.

I feel like The Clippers have done a better job of this then the Lakers have but the Lakers BXR gear has been fire.
