TBay area Rxers....Get Together for Game 2, ALDS?

[barman]

5TPARLAY and BILLSFAN, I've just sent you an email.

Other locals...If you want to be included in a stubhub group purchase for Game 2, please contact me via PrivateMessage here at the Rx.

Looking right now at upper deck and current pricing at Stubhub is about $70 each. Will make the buy mid day on Sunday once we confirm the date of Game 2.

I will be going to a game with my dad as he bought tickets to a game. i don't know which GAME he got (i just told him pick up 2 tix and I'll go). We are golfing in the morning I will update.

Hopefully we can meet up.

 

[FairWarning]

Are they going to sell out?

 

[barman]

Both games were sold out by at least this past Tuesday when first checked prices.

The Rays have received some national smak about their attendance this season, but it's always tied to games on Mon-Thur and/or against teams not in contention.

They'll sell out any postseason game scheduled and it's also likely they will reopen seats that this year were blocked off due having small sight line problems created by being so high up and the catwalks. This will raise capacity from about 36.5K back up to about 44K.

B'man--Separate issue, but are you going in on Fantasy Hockey? WW has you down as a potential owner, just need to confirm. See hockey forum.

Just a quick heads-up to 'ya.

Forget that...I just saw your post passing on it. Cheers!

 

[BlackBart]

Will be out of town, but keep me in mind for future events.

good luck bay rays and fellow posters going to support the team! :toast:

 

[5teamparlay]

I will be at game 2, got my tix with the old man.

WE WILL BE AT FERGS EARLY ...

 

[barman]

Cool....looks like Game One will not be until Wednesday afternoon if Rays win division, so SheBar a likely attendee for Game 2

She would have been unable to attend Wednesday.

Rays will open playoffs Thursday

DETROIT—The first playoff game in Rays history will be played Thursday at Tropicana Field.
The Angels clinched the best record in baseball with the Rays’ loss Friday, giving them the choice of whether to open their Division Series against the Red Sox on Wednesday or Thursday. They went for the first day, giving them an extra day off before Game 2. That means the Rays will face either the Twins or White Sox at the Trop on Thursday and Friday before heading out on the road for Games 3 and 4.
Start times are still to be determined and will be announced in the coming days once all the playoff spots are finalized.
The Thursday start means the Rays will need to use four starting pitchers for the Division Series. The Rays haven’t revealed how they’ll lineup their starters yet, but you can expect them to take it easy with Matt Garza on Saturday and limit James Shields to only a couple of innings Sunday.

A minute into the middle clip.

 

[barman]

There's several clips and I didn't see any "leaving the tunnel" shots

Put your mouse on the right clip and tell me what it says, so I make sure and play the right one.

Anyone Know When Tix For Fri And Sat Games Are Going On Sale?

 

[barman]

Both games already sold out

Check out secondary sellers

If you go to tampabayrays.com you can register to be in the drawing for Game 6/7 tickets, which I presume would go on sale next Monday morning at 9am

If you're selected, you'll receive an email about a day ahead and will have just a few hours to buy online.

 

[wannabewhale]

No game 6 or 7 will be necessary--Rays finshed off in Fenway!!1

 

[namathfan]

Have always found much better prices on tix thru ebay as opposed to other outlets...take a look.
