Ladies & Gentlemen - Welcome To Fenway Park (PIC HEAVY)

[matcom]

1. I am officially jealous!

Although I am a Twins fan, I would love to go to Fenway Park for a game.

[matcom]

2. i've been there many times but never had a chance to sit up there

amazing view of the ballpark

[KitchenWitch]

3. How much did the Tix set you back?

I have heard the ticket prices at Fenway are terribly high.

[matcom]

4. 100% NOTHING

my boss bought 4 season tickets in the Pavillion 406 club. went for free. won't be our last of the season either.

i THINK they are around $200 a pop up there (normal tickets are a lot cheaper though) but yeah, ticket prices have gone up this year

[KitchenWitch]

5. NIIIICE!

Our ticket prices have gone up as well, but we still have among the cheapest seats in all of baseball.

The Twins instituted something this year that made me mad. There are regular games and there are premium games (premium being more likely to have high attendance - therefore we have to pay more). The Yankmes, Cubs and BoSox series' are all premium games... GRRRRRRRR

[matcom]

6. there isn't a single game played in Fenway that isn't 110% sold out

not one. and i say 110% because they actually sell standing room only tickets (which isn't bad at all because you can wander around and see things from different views)

[KitchenWitch]

8. Our venue (the Humpy Dome) can hold over 55,000 people

Hard to sell out in our market.

Our home opener had almost 49,000 in attendance though!

[yvr girl]

7. Looks like fun

I had hoped to get to a game when I was there last year, but it didn't work out.

[redwitch]

9. It's official. I am now Greenwitch!

If I show this to died in wool red sox fan hubby, he will weep with jealousy. x(
I am hoping to get some decent tix for his birthday in July.
Would love to take our sons too.
:hi:

[matcom]

21. hey redwitch check THIS OUT (Tix info)

Mrs Matcom's sister read your post and sent this to Mrs Matcom who sent it to me and so on, and so on, and so on... :D

23. Day of game tix maybe? I can't get the site to let me buy any tickets.

High traffic on the site, most dates sold out- at least, I can't get four tickets ( I wanted the kids to go too) to any of the games I tried.

I may have to take him to a Sox game in another city. Not the same though. :cry:


On the bright side, Matcom sent me a private message! :bounce:
It is nice to know that even though he gets special seats to Red Sox games, he is not so stuck up that he won't talk to me!

[XNASA]

10. Very nice but....

Where's the ivy? :shrug:

[MANative]

11. As lifelong Sox fans, Mr. MA Native and I are VERY jealous...

Haven't been to a game in about 3 years and these pics are makin' me itch!!!

Go Sox!!

[ScreamingMeemie]

12. SNOBS!!!

Actually, you guys look like you are having so much fun! I'm glad you had a great time! :hi:

[matcom]

13. damn right

last company i worked for had private box tickets for the Patriots. new company has club seats for the Red Sox.

it has been a while since i have 'slummed' at a sporting event :D

[ScreamingMeemie]

19. When I was a girl, my father worked for Stroh's and would get

awesome seats (Stroh owned) to Red Wings games. Those were the days for this "bleacher creature". ;) :hi:

[trof]

26. Strohs spelled backwards is "shortS".

<hee>

[Midlodemocrat]

14. I miss Fenway.

A lot.

[DS1]

15. Nice leather jacket, you seal-clubber!

:grr:

[matcom]

16. mandatory scooter-attire

can't be helped.

not to worry though. it was an illegal-immigrant Seal

[underpants]

17. The nosebleed seats?

Just kidding. I had the opportunity to go to an O's game in the Club Level seats. They didn't bring you menus but it was very nice.

Every seat at Camden is wiped off for you by the usher....yep even the nosebleeds like those. :bounce:

BTW- just a hint don't post pictures of yourself with your girlfriend at the ballpark ESPECIALLY if your wife posts on the same internet board. Whew boy lemme tell ya I learned that one the hard way.

[matcom]

18. oooooo good advice!

SHIT! editing time has expired x(

and i told her i was working late last night :hide:

[underpants]

20. Damn

I can't use that one...she knows I never work late.

[xmas74]

22. Now that is the way to watch a game!

I'm quite jealous.

[Ramsey]

24. Great pics!

That looked like fun! Of course, baseball bores me, but whatever floats your boat.

:loveya:

[GOPisEvil]

25. I'll be expecting an invitation soon!

Looks like a good time! :D
