It's bad and it's getting worse. The city itself is rapidly getting worse. You missed the good days. They aren't coming back.

Same here. They took my tickets for the renovations and tried to switch me to seats that were 2 sections higher than what I was at a higher price from what I was paying. Big nope...

They called the other day telling me I was now on the priority waiting list (whatever the heck that is) but that tickets were available in the loge, club, and terrace they could offer me if I was interested.

Thanks. I think you will be much happier not going.
I hope to get your slot on the waiting list.
Thanks again.

I hope you get that shot too. I have no qualms against anyone who wants to attend. Hell, I would have just transferred my tix to you, TBH.

EDIT: as long as you paid for the actual cost of the tickets.

Mess? You mean 4 consecutive division champs?

I got the email this year too after like a decade.

Three kids later and three states over not really in the market at this point.

Received the same email on yesterday and purchased a couple of tickets . So glad that I won’t be sitting next to idiots like you who refuse to wear a mast during a pandemic. Do you honestly think that you have the right to spread a dangerous germs on to others? Do us all a favor and “grow up.”

I applaud you. Don’t get how it’s so hard to just wear a mask. The longer ppl act like children and defy this the longer it goes on. The government is not out to get you. Bill Gates does not care about tracking you or whatever bs theory is going around nowadays. Wear the mask. Be respectful of not spreading this crap to others and the faster we can get back to normal.

Because unless it is an N95 mask, it does nothing to stop the spread of the virus.

I am not interested in virtue signaling. I am not interested in being policed over whether I have what amounts to a napkin and string attached to my face. I am not interested in continually recycling bacteria into my lungs that we breathe out normally every day because someone wants the appearance of "we are doing our part".

Does that answer explain why some choose not to wear a mask?

Got the call as well. Those days are gone for me. I my third boycotting season. Don’t miss any of it. Probably don’t know half of the players now. Glad it’s there for you like minded individuals.
