Hey, if you're rich enough to plop down the money for 20+ tickets in February, we have free stuff for you!

 

If you have to save up to take a family of four to a game or two, well then f*** YOU!

Wait, wut? This is about group outings. Like, for schools and businesses and whatnot. Not necessarily -- or even that likely -- rich people. It's a way to sell as much as they can as early as they can.

 

EDIT: Really, it's about making sure they can account for large swaths of tickets earlier.

This is a pretty common thing. Lots of teams do extras for groups.

I bought 200 tickets to a game back in December. I am not rich and they are not for me they are for a group.

20 tickets costs as low as $100.

 

If you are looking for a way to make the Sox look like fools, you aren't going to get that here.

 

It's a contest designed to boost group sales in a year that most will write off.

 

 

 

Oh, and the cost to take a family of four to a game? $20 on a sunday. Even less if you have the kids signed up in the kids club.

Do we know when single game tickets go on sale? It seems odd that the season is a little more than a month and a half away, and not only are tickets not on sale, but they haven't even announced a date...?

Hearing end of the month or even early march.

That's pretty late from what I can remember.they really wanna push multiphase plans before single tix.probably because this team is a scary hit or miss ballclub this year.

Considering that not many people are expecting the sox to do well, this is a good move. Push some more group tix and 7 game plans as the single game sales will likely be low.
