you can go to every april and may game except opening day and the konerko ceremony. so 21 games at ~$2.67 a game.

I bought two. I'll go to maybe ~10 games so it'll cost me $5 a pop. I think that's fair.


So what the fuck are they talking about A game? If you go to 10 games you can't beat this.

Would you go to 10 Sox games in April and May, upperdeck, Mon to Thursday if they gave you $49?

Actually!

THATS A BRILIANT PROGRAM....Attend 10 games for free furing that same time and the Sox give you $50 in Sox ticket Coupons!

10 games! They have to make some money on people eating and drinking?

You are given a ticket to every game besides a couple for the first few months. You'd have to buy two if you wanted to go with someone or you'd have to find two empty seats which probably isn't that hard anyways.

For $49 you get the weekend games too, and yes I would if I lived where it was easy enough to get to the games.

That's a pretty good deal. While we act like all of April and May is shitty, that's not the case. There will be some 70 and 80 degree days in for those 21 dates.

Like we've said, you can easily slip down to the lower deck, despite the rule, and find a good seat.

You buy the app and are given "A" Ticket....? is this correct? I have been to games alone, but its because its my tickets, nobody used them, I got home, the game started and I walked over.

But do they provide you 2 tickets to attend the game with someone? or 3 others?

Essentially buying upper deck, weekday tickets for April and May? Would you pay $49..........?

Would I pay $49 for over a months worth of games? Uh, yea. Yes I would. I did, actually. I bought two, and since I bought them together the seats will always be adjacent. I was going to pay $7 (at least) a pop to go to these games, now I'm paying like $2.75. If I have to download an app to pay 1970's prices to the see the Sox I'll do it. Weekends are included, tons of Fri/Sat/Sun games.

Sometimes I'll set in the UD (its really not that bad if you're behind the plate), sometimes I'll sneak down, and sometimes I'll just get outfield tickets anyways! On my drive home from work I will park at that abandoned colstor thats free, meet my brother/friend/whoever outside the gate and just walk right in. I will be doing that for nearly every home game for two months. I paid $100 yesterday and I have my #1 source of entertainment taken care of. This arrangement fucking rules and you'd have to be purposefully obtuse to not realize that immediately.

I logged in to claim tickets for today's game to see how the pass works as it's the first eligible game. Sox gave me section 151 row 8. Not bad for a weekend game! Sucks I can't go.

Got section 109 row 18 for tonights game.

tomorrow is supposed to be warmer so i think that's the play.

plus with bauer vs danks this game might turn into a 4 hour marathon. bauer can't help walking or striking out everyone while danks can't get anyone out.

I got sec 158, which is pretty great considering they will be lucky to crack 8000 in the house tonight.
