Updated - Sweet Seats in April at a Discount - Updated

Well sort of. The premium Dugout and Bullpen Box seats are being offered at 50% of in April. I just checked and you can get 1st row behind the plate for $90 a piece. Perhaps Jessica would like to comment on the lack of ticket sales forcing the Cubs to discount in April.

Update - They are discounting bleacher seats for the April series against the Nationals. Does that mean Al and the gang will get a refund??

There are very few of those seats, of course...

… only a few hundred. I suppose they figure it’s better to sell them at a discount than have them go unsold.

Always think Retail with tickets

Yes, better to get something than nothing at all.

The worst thing is, one of those dates will turn out to be a beautiful day at the ballpark. Usually a Thursday day game. And then it will rain all weekend.

Maybe they can have Xavier Nady sell tickets while he's not playing the outfield.

If Millah doesn't get picked up

Maybe he can get them sold.

No I would not want to overextend him

He needs to keep playing first so he can be ready for Opening Day.

Is row C the third row or the 103rd row?

I have no concept of these fancy seats.

by redward on Mar 31, 2010 12:32 PM CDT reply actions

I have sat in the Dugout Boxes

And I fell that at the right price it is worth it. I sold season ticket for the Sox game for a profit and used that money to subsidize the cost of the Dugout box for the same game. It was cool to be so closer to the players and the action. I even got Ozzie to autograph a ball before the game. Then I blew him grief when the Sox blew their lead. :)
