Red Sox raising ticket prices again .. Good luck with that.. LOL.
The Red Sox are raising ticket prices for the 2019 season - The Boston Globe
Well...hate to say it, but that does tend to happen when you win a championship. It's the price you pay for seeing a successful team. I think I heard an average of 2.5%. The baseline prices are nuts.
Most of that seems to be in their new sixth "diamond tier" - six games that include the home opener (now with a banner ceremony), the 2 rematches vs the Dodgers, and 3 of the Fri/Sat Yankee games. Diamond tier is up 10% more, while other games are up 1.6%. In other words, half of the new tier is almost directly because of the World Series win, and the other half is Yankees games. No doubt the season after this, they'll creep in a few other marquee games into the tier to replace the LA games - Marathon Monday being a candidate.
And what are they thinking forcing both Sox games in London to be home games for us? Seems lame to me.
I also saw this:
Man, my parents were never that nice to me - when we went, it was "hop on the T", "drink your bottle of water that we brought in", and "I'm not buying you that damn foam finger".
