I still have stubs from 07 ALCS that never happened..managed to get in on the “lottery”.
The only other playoff game I ever went to was 2001 ALCS when El Duque got shelled. I remember paying about $110 for upper deck outfield/3rd base line back then using either craigslist or ebay. StubHub is a rip b/c they take 15% from all the sellers — thats why the prices there are always higher than anyplace else.

This was actually explained in the (voluminous) releases sent out during the ticketing process prior to the season. Its not some grand secret that the Yankees have been keeping all of this time.

The licensing fee is annual, and divided into 81 games across each ticket. I’m pretty sure thats why the suite tickets have different price listed as the face value (ie: Legend Suite tickets don’t have $1,250 on them).

I think it is 2 tickets to each round. I have the SI Yanks package and hope Im lucky enough to score tix during the presale.

I hear ya. It’s tough, but I’m also extremely cheap, never paid more than $40 for tickets to any sporting event.

Once I move back to CT though(8 months and counting)….

In other news: The search for McDonalds' Grimace is still on-going and no new information on the where-abouts of the Grimace has surfaced. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the Grimace family and all of those associated with McDonaldland. And to everyone else, It's Mac Tonight!

Well, I live in Buffalo, so it’s not easy for me to get the the game either. Sorry, not criticizing you at all. I’m just shocked at some people having not been to a playoff game when the fans here are so hardcore. I can definitely understand that $100 feeling like more as well…so my post really was just a memory and a surprise is all.

You’ll go eventually, when you’re ready.

If you think the one-time licensing fee won’t apply next season, you are sorely mistaken. Those tickets will cost the same next year as they do this year — $2500 per game. I believe the licensing fee is an annual one.
