Well, after 9 years! We have upgraded our seats and moved inot row 9! and over a section. Not a huge improvement, but we have been talkign to the rep for 3 days now and he seems to have a number of options for us, which in years past did not exist?

The seats they scalped were the seat they held back for scouts, players, coaches etc. If guys didnt give names to the ticket office by 10:30 AM I am told all those seats went into the "Resale" bin.

For years, the veteran fans knew about this and even sold out games, if you hung out at the ticket window until 11 AM you would get a shot at GREAT seats.

I got some front row seats once, right on the brick wall at the Cardinals batting circle.

At that time the seats weren't actually that great. Less leg room in row 1 and your were down so low, didnt get to see every pitch unless you leaned forward.

Actually sold a number of tickets this year to subsidize, my subsidizing of the Ricketts
