Balta1701 Posted Saturday at 01:53 AM Share Posted Saturday at 01:53 AM Apparently neither of the available ticket packages for this include any autograph sessions. https://bsky.app/profile/soxmachinejosh.bsky.social/post/3lbkjfprlns2l 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poppysox Posted yesterday at 12:03 AM Share Posted yesterday at 12:03 AM I credit the WS for keeping their word to hold a Soxfest-type event. After the year we had it would have been instinctual to hide from the fans. The rebranding and smaller venue is just the reality of not getting enough fans to keep it in the former space. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eh, I’m not so sure about that. I think plenty of Sox fans would actually pay the money to go blast Jerry and Getz. I wouldn’t, because then I would be funding these clowns more money. But many Sox fans would. This was a strategic move by the Sox to avoid being lambasted by a massive crowd of angry Sox fans.

WhiteSox2023 Posted yesterday at 12:37 AM Share Posted yesterday at 12:37 AM But seriously, imagine paying $225 dollars for the MVP Experience after the team just made the record books for being one of the worst teams in MLB history. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO opinion, the timing and selection of the Ramova venue was a fantastic decision. The renovated theatre/restaurant/ brewery near 35th and Halsted is beautiful. Support from private investors and the cooperation of National Historic landmarks (new roof), TIF financing, and the dedication of Emily and Tyler Nevius makes a statement about the revival of that area and surrounding businesses ... including the WSox. If someone would prefer going to a downtown hotel, OK, but for me, I think this venue and location will be wonderful. If anyone here is going, please post a pic or two.
