4_kidd_4 Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 A friend scored us a pair for Yanks on 6/14, pretty excited for the experience. Let’s go Buffalo! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thenorthremembers Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 Tried to get tickets to the Houston game at 10am, each time I tried to checkout it said Oops these tickets are no longer available. Checked Stubhub at 10:11am and they already had tickets going for three times the price. Love the Jays and was looking forward to seeing Yordan for the Astros. Guess Ill have to wait until closer to the game to see if Stubhub goes done. Not paying 175 a ticket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like they start at $350 dollars a ticket for the "bad seats." Up to 1k a ticket for the better seats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well...wow. To be fair, it’s likely a once in a lifetime opportunity. And if you have cash like that for entertainment/recreation then have at it, I suppose.

Even with a decent job, I am not in the "I can pay 1k a ticket for a baseball game" bracket! But more than happy that people in our area can enjoy it this summer. The cool thing is it does show that Buffalo is a viable baseball market. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only is it a once in a lifetime opportunity, but they've reduced capacity to a small crowd (6,600). When you factor in that people have been cooped up for over a year and are dying to get out and drink some beers and watch professional sports, you get the perfect storm for crazy prices. 46 minutes ago, thenorthremembers said: The cool thing is it does show that Buffalo is a viable baseball market. I'd have to disagree with that for the reasons listed above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have to disagree with that for the reasons listed above. Yeah I agree w this entire post. We really just stumbled upon this, very fortunate. My wife’s co-worker knew we wanted to try to go, she was in on the Sabres season tix holder pre-sale. I honestly didn’t care which game. She stopped over and said “did you guys get Blue Jays tickets yet? Because you have a pair now!”. She told us the date and I was floored that it was the Yankees. The irony here is that I’m literally the only non-Yankees fan in my entire family (Go Royals!). I’m on the adopted Jays wagon. Felt a little filthy buying a Jays cap last season but I learned to like it, they have a lot of character on the squad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
US Egg Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 4 hours ago, thenorthremembers said: Up to 1k a ticket for the better seats. Spent about 3 grand to go to N.Y.C. via JetBlue, stay 3 nights, dined, attended 2 Yankee/Red Sox games with wife, way down lower 3rd baseline. Think it was a July 4th weekend. Clemens pitched for the Yankees then, got rocked and was gone by, I think the 4th or 5th. Place was easily a 1\4 Sox fans, going nuts. Quietly, I loved it. Never liked Clemens. Secondary ticket market sucks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PromoTheRobot Posted May 28, 2021 Author Share Posted May 28, 2021 (edited) As is always the case, someone I bought a ticket for bailed out on me. So I have one seat for Sunday vs Houston. Sec 113. PM me if interested. You must present your vaxx card to sit in this section. Edited May 28, 2021 by PromoTheRobot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted May 30, 2021 Author Share Posted May 30, 2021 Anyone watching the jays? They might as well forfeit games in the last inning with that bullpen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFan4 Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 (edited) Get to see some of these changes in person on Friday. Super excited! Edited June 1, 2021 by BillsFan4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDawkinstein Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 Hell Yeah! I love this. I'm in my 40s and have memories of Mark at games from when I was a kid. Glad to see he is still there, and back in action. Dude is the best heckler too. My favorite is when he points at the batter and gets their attention, and then points at his armpit. It's so frickin perfect. The simplicity, and his flawless execution. Go Mark, Go Jays. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We get to the Bisons 2-3 times a year, my kids are always taken with him as well. Such a great atmosphere at the games. Miss the Earl of Bud though.
