whitesoxbrian Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 (edited) I sat in 531, last row for the 2nd game of the 2005 ALCS and they were great, so Tony, I don't think 2 or 3 sections to the left and about 24 rows lower will be bad seats.

rangercal Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 f*** YOU MLB/WHITE SOX! These must be the Tickets that they could not scalp on stubhub! I just shelled out $300 for the same exact seats that would now cost me $100 through ticketmaster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You definitely have a right to be pissed. All of a sudden were down 0-2 in the series and they start selling tickets. I never even got a notification for tickets when I registered for them. Brooks Boyer may need to be made aware of this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swingandalongonetoleft Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 I was parusing Stubhub not 3 hours ago, resigned to not attending. Score. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Critic Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 LOL The password that came up for my search was: SUFFERING FURTHER I can't go tomorrow, so I passed on the pair that came up in section 554. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BainesHOF Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 (edited) People need to stop complaining. Here's why: If the Sox announced that additional tickets have been put on sale, they'd be gobbled up immediately. Your chances of being able to buy any would be remote. By quietly releasing the last tickets that have suddenly become available, the Sox are rewarding the die-hards who continue to check Ticketmaster and those who visit sites like this one. The Sox know exactly what they're doing. Be thankful. Edited October 4, 2008 by BainesHOF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You obviously have no idea how their (MLB) partnership works with stubhub. http://www.networkworld.com/community/node/18074 I got f***ed and so did anyone else who bought tickets on stubhub before last night.

Nobody forced you to buy tickets on Stubhub. You obviously felt it was worth it or you wouldn't have done it. It's not bull. The Sox held back tickets in order to sell season tickets for next year. They waited as long as possible, then put the relatively small amount of tickets that they had leftover on sale. They did so in a manner where the diehards who were shutout could buy them if they were paying attention. There's not enough tickets to go around. Be glad that you have some, and be glad the organization did its best to look out for the die-hard fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tickets being released are being released by MLB not the Sox. By the way, still some out there. Friends just got UD's 15 minutes ago and there are some for Monday for sale as well.

I won't be fooled again, I can tell you that much. When will you understand that this is MLB? Do I need to direct you to the stubhub links on every mlb teams page?

Of course MLB receives blocks of tickets for every postseason game for a variety of reasons. There's no doubt MLB and the Sox eventually release tickets that they don't need.

BigSqwert Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Kind of sad that as of 8am this morning we do not have a sellout for a playoff game. What is this Atlanta? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can't read the article on the other end of the link, then I'm afraid I can't help you. Listen up so you can help yourself. StubHub sells tickets on the secondary market at a premium. The Sox released tickets, perhaps turned in by MLB in this case, on the primary market for face value. Let me know if you need further explanation.
