Das, help!
« on: May 12, 2017, 03:20:13 pm »
Is the game tomorrow 100% a rainout? If so, you can attribute it to the fact that I have 10 tickets.

I'm no das, but:  the 24 hours between 6 and 6 AM look to be a washout.

You may ask yourself, "How do I work this?"

Today's game cancelled, will be played as a doubleheader Sunday... for which my ten tickets will not be valid.

That blows. Curious, why would your tickets not be valid?
There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, and everything else is cream cheese.

They are doing it as a single entry double header with the night game, so only tomorrow's tickets valid. Tomorrow night is the Derek Jeter fellatio fest, so it's totally sold out (and StubHub is going for 6x what it was for last night's game). I can trade my tickets for today in for some other Yankee's game I don't give a shit about (pending availability).

Sorry to have not responded, Biz. That stinks that you have to swap for tix you don't care about.

I'm a little surprised that they chose a rainout. The back edge of the rain shield is NE of Philly now and I thought it only took an hour or so for these new fields to drain.
Another trenchant comment by a jealous lesser intellect.

I'm surprised the Yankees went for the single-admission approach. Figured a team would do almost anything to keep those extra ticket sales; seems like a noon start would have still likely given plenty of time to clear the stadium before the Jeter lovefest began.
