LA Games Tickets

PrintFor all of us West Coast BCB'ers, I thought I would create a post for people looking for tickets or who have extra tickets for the games in Los Angeles. It's always more fun to sit together , rather than being interspersed throughout the stands. Plus, there is safety in numbers. :)
Remember the house rules... face value only for ticket sales.
Right now, there are single seats available through the MLB site. If past history is any indication, chances are they will release additional tickets as the week goes on. Getting them is just a matter of good timing.
Al, if this is inappropriate, my apologies.

This one's fine...
… since it’s not likely there’s going to be enormous demand from BCB’ers for tix in LA.
FWIW… yes, I am planning on being there. Hope to see some of the LA-area BCB’ers at Dodger Stadium.

I've got 2 for Saturday's game
that I won’t be able to use. Flight prices are just too pricey for my budget. Tix are in section 168LG. I think I paid somewhere between 100-110 for them.
Hint if you want to fly.
Try flying into Orange County airport instead of LAX.

Long Beach airport is actually closer, and also easy to get into/out of. Jet Blue flies there FWIW.

True.
I got a really nice fare on United into SNA. Just sayin’.

ugh
United? I’d rather slit my wrists.

Yeah, I know.
Trouble is, I have had all my miles with United for years… and they fly everywhere from Chicago. If I’d had more time to plan, I probably would have gotten on Southwest.

I think that Burbank is the closest airport
If it is an option where you are coming in from.
I am coming from San Jose on Southwest, and it is definitely the way to go.
I'll take the tix if you are looking to unload them
I assume that you paid that for the pair? Are they email tix? How can we do this?
Yes, for the pair.
They are print at home. Give me your email address and I’ll shoot you an email with specifics.
I might have 3 in the outfield I can't use on Saturday
Anybody interested?

I just need 2, but if I don't hear back from the guy above, I'd be interested
How much were they? I’m sure that I can find a third…
I'd be interested

Sorry. I sold them to my friend in San Diego. Big Cub Fan.

I'm going Saturday.
I’ll be in the Infield Reserve section 15, wearing a Fukudome jersey.
I’m looking to go Sunday as well… if anyone has tickets they can’t use for Sunday, let me know.
You look like you'd fit in the trunk of my car.
you guys have fun out there
im just gonna head on over to the brewers site and register for playoff tix. prepare for a possible Cubs – Brewers NLCS
---AC 00 00 00 - Believe
For those of you who want to do this...
… do it NOW. The registration period for the Brewers NLCS drawing is TODAY at 5 pm CT.

Interesting
you can get guaranteed postseason tickets by signing up for Brewers 2009 season tickets.
thanks for the heads up..
I just entered myself. I’d rather have tix for Wrigley but hell playoff baseball is playoff baseball..
Your 2008 NL Central Champs: Chicago Cubs!!! Go Cubs Go
fyi
The last time I checked, there were plenty of tickets still available on Dodgers.com. Show up in strong numbers you left coast kids!
"Pounding sand since 1982...."
not now
they are gone at this point. I thought that the Brewers were gonna blow it, so I bought Dodgers NLCS tix. So much for that idea—now I need to find tickets for this weekend.
There were plenty of tix for game 4 as of Sunday morning.
By Sunday night they were gone. I suspect a TON of Cubs fans bought them as soon as the Mets lost.
There are, as is evident here and as most of you probably already know, thousands of Cubs fans in Southern California. I suspect we’ll have a large and loud contingent in LA this weekend.

I looked on the Dodgers site
right after the Mets lost and the site wouldn’t even load so hopefully it was Cubbie Blue loading up on tickets. Good job everyone.
Still need 4 for Sunday
If anyone has extras, let me know.
Also looking for an extra or two
If anyone comes up with an extra one or two for Saturday, let me know. My email is ross (at) mochamail (dot) com

I'm looking for 2 tickets for saturday
If anyone has any let me know. bbdb28(at)hotmail(dot)com
2008 National League Central Division Champs!!!!!
I am determined to be there
I just need to find tickets for 5 people. I have a feeling I will be selling body parts on Stubhub to get there! If I can’t find 5 tickets, I will be going alone.
I think I have a very nice pair for Sunday
e mail me if interested jrosner at kino dot com
Please not I do search comments for anyone who wants my tickets to make sure they have not posted anything nasty
about Maddux ( they are my tickets so I can set my standards).

Jessica, you’re not going to LA, or you can only go to Saturday’s game? I’ve got my tickets for both LA games, as well as those here. Hope to see you here tomorrow.

Can’t afford it more in terms of time than money. Have a great time

Airport Info
The closest airport to Dodger Stadium (DS) is Burbank. It is northeast of DS, about 15 miles.
Ontario is approximately 40 miles east of DS, but it is a straight shot into LA on the 10 freeway.
LAX is southwest of DS, around 20 miles, but getting from LAX to DS can be a challenge at times.
Orange County/John Wayne is about 35 miles as the crow flies. But there is no easy route between the airport and Dodger Stadium.

I am looking for Saturday tix
At least 2 but 4 might work as well…email me at airweino(at)hotmail(dot)com.

this should be recommended so it stays on the front

Perhaps Al can put it in the featured section?

It's in the rec list now.
It should stay there for a few days.

Please check out my fan post
Entitled “Chavez Ravine Recommendations?”. I am flying in from San Jose, CA, and I could use some recommendations on how to enjoy the Dodgers experience. Never been there.
The "Dodgers Experience" SUCKS
Living in south OC, about 50 miles from Dodger Stadium, it takes about 2 hours in brutal, gridlock traffic to get there. Parking is $15 and tailgating is forbidden; therefore, there is no spot for fans to gather. Most of all, I hate paying $8.50 for beers — That’s criminal! I hope you find it more enjoyable!
The only good thing here is these games (hopefully THIS GAME) will be on the weekend, so traffic should be A TAD lighter. It’s gonna suck going there with my two best friends, both of whom are passionate Dodger fans, but hey, they got me tickets, so what the hell?
"I never drink water because of the disgusting things fish do in it" -W.C. Fields
I hear ya!
Traffic just plain old blows… I’m coming in from PS so traffic shouldnt be too bad, then again, who friggin’ knows! Giving myself three hours, but think it could be done in 2 1/2. Ready for a good time nonetheless
