May have cut off online sales and will do walkup day of game
You will not have any problems getting tickets in MLB stadium for college baseball
Most everything is GA
I do expect attendance reoords at least for LSU games since its the first time they have done this and apparently they want LSU back already, my guess is early ticket sales have far exceeded anything they have got before
Hope they open enough concession stands or the beer line will be really long

Yea, in my other thread i mentioned they opened up the insperity club. She said it was because LSU fans bought up all the diamond club seating for our games.

What sort of records do you expect to be broken?

The lower level won't even be full don't worry you can get them at the gate.

The upper sections are closed off, so its not the full Astros capacity.

Still won't sell out, but I do think that the parts that are open for seating will be relatively full during the LSU games.

Diamond Club seats sold out pretty quickly.

There is no ticket service charge to buy in person so, therefore, you will pay less.

The price of the tickets are actually more expensive to buy the day of the game in person as opposed to buying online in advance. It is not cheaper to buy them in advance.

Price for single game adult is $16 online. They are $18 at the gate.

Well, I can see you're a cocksucker. Aren't you the dumbass that was asking about contributing to a Roth and how that would effect your tax return? And you're calling other people stupid?

The total price of a ticket to buy online is $19.69 per ticket. The price of a ticket the day of the game is $18 plus tax. The tax rate in Houston is 8.25% which would make the cost of the ticket $19.49 the day of the game. So yes, the tickets are 20 cents more expensive to buy online. Maybe for someone on your level that makes a big difference, but to most it doesn't. My guess is that you're just a dumbass and didn't know the tickets were $2 more at the gate.


ticketmaster fees add roughly 10 bucks per ticket...congrats
