Play Chicken with Seat Prices
« on: August 03, 2010, 02:32:17 pm »
For every run scored on the roadie, the Astros will want their knock $2 off the price of field box seats during the upcoming Pirates series.  The trick?  Seats are limited, so you have to decide how long you wait to buy a ticket.

Of course, courtesy of the Jakes' wobbly bully, the $39 seats are already down to $21.

Personally, I'm going to wait until the tickets are in minus numbers.  It seems only appropriate for them to pay me to watch the Pirates.
Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen.

So even Pammy thought that this offense would struggle to score 15 runs in 6 games.

With the current crowds, I don't need to pay $21 to sit in box seats.

Right now they are still at $21.00.  I guess sometime after 8:00 this morning they will go down to the maximum off of $30.00 and be at $9.00.

Ordered 4 for Friday the 13th, and got section 108.  4 for the price of one is not a bad deal!

I got 3 for Sunday's game. Just past and up a little from the Jut of Death.
I'm in love with rock and roll and I'll be out all night.
