Lol even decent seats elsewhere are going for more than flight/hotel/tickets. I’m interested to see how the market looks in a couple days. Prices are decreasing rapidly in Houston.



For shits and giggles I just looked on StubHub. Here's a couple real life listings:

Chairman Seat 25 Row 12: $33,333 per seat before fees and $40,919 after fees (so just a $7,586 fee PER TICKET to StubHub for processing the transaction - )

Chophouse 159 Row 1 (reminder this is an outfield seat): $16,455 per seat before fees and $20,201 after fees


I love this one:
Section 438 Row 6 for just $9,999 per ($12,276 per with fees). Good luck selling that one buddy.

Cheapest on StubHub right now
Section 416 Row 2 (a better seat than the one above) for $795 ($978 with fees)

So, yeah, I think the prices are going to come WAY down. Still will be expensive as shite.

Same with game 2 and game 6. The Dodgers are in his head to where he is trying to be so perfect with his locations that he has absolutely no command of any pitch.



And he admitted on Fox5 that the Dodgers "are his daddy."

But he has been our best reliever the entire year up till the last couple of games.

If I'm being honest, after the game ended Saturday night, I thought back to the close games we lost in the World Series in '91 and '92.... or losing 3 games in a row with a 2-1 lead in the '93 NLCS.

I thought about us losing a 6-0 lead in Game 4 of the '96 World Series.... and then I thought about all of the years we got beat at HOME, in the 1st round of playoffs in the years after '99.

I thought back to Maddux, Glavine and Smoltz... Chipper and Andruw Jones... Fred McGriff and Galarraga and Gary Sheffield.... and all those years that ended in us playing poorly in the playoffs.

All those seasons of the other team's being clutch late in games.... or us making an error... late-game heroics by someone else.... or us just being mediocre.

I thought back to the infamous "infield-fly" in the 2013 Wild Card game. All those years, it just seemed like there was something psychological about our Braves in the playoffs.

Saturday night, and the run these guys have been on these last 2 post-seasons.... it's definitely a different feeling watching these guys deliver big clutch hits and our bullpen put up zero's with the game on the line.

I'm so happy. Happy we're back in the World Series.... happy our Braves have given us such great post-season performances these last 2 weeks.

Sure, but that doesn't mean you run him back out there in a close game in the 7th inning. If we get 6 IP from a starter, I want Minter/Matzek/Smith or Matzek 2/Smith if the next day is a travel day.

You only use Jackson now when you don't have any other options. I get it, he's a nice guy and was abnormally very good for us in the regular season, but you simply can't trust him in a big spot right now.

What site are you on? You were asking about processing your purchase earlier before the Ticketmaster presale was even open I think.

I'm on Ticketmaster. Got in the queue maybe 15 minutes before 1:00 ET and I'm still waiting in the queue with 2000+ in front of me. Just got an update that "due to demand, ticket availability is limited and ticket options may vary throughout the venue" - I'm like, not shite.

Ticketmaster. Been on for an hour. Had 2 different pre-sale codes so I got in a little early. No luck getting tickets regardless.

And of course the ticket office has their phones turned off.

Got 2 in section 436 for around $1000 total. Makes me sick knowing it could’ve been a lot less this morning.

it was crazy how much prices were jumping during the pre-sale. When I first got in there were tickets in the 400 section for $200. Now they up to $800.

Once I finally got in they were $590, I tried to buy but it didn't go through. When I refreshed it was $830 for 400 level. Screw it. I'll hope for the best that they come down.

I think they’ll come down. In Houston last week the lowest prices were $900, now they’re down to around $400.

Been in Delta for all the home playoff games so far but holy shite at the secondary prices down there for this weekend. Don’t think I can stomach that. I’ll wait until closer to Friday to buy something I guess.


Gotta believe they’ll come down some.

This is more money than I paid for secondary tickets for LSU vs Clemson.

I bet Atlanta’s will be higher BUT, they won’t hold here.
