These prices are untenable.
This is currently the cheapest seat available and you can't even see Right Field.

The Blue Jays will be hitting a number of homers to RF and in turn their RF will be stealing homers from Ohtani out there. Wouldn't want to miss that. I am actually quite shocked at the prices. You could sit in similar seats for ALCS game 7 for around 500 bucks. That's quite the jump.

You could probably bribe someone to let you in for less than a thousand bucks.

You can get in for less than 1k. This is the cheapest seat you can buy on secondary markets right now. General Admission tickets which gives you access to all the bars and social areas but no seat are going for 850 bucks. If those tickets dropped a bit I might consider it. You don't even get a table though. They do have some of standing room tables by the rail in a couple of the outfield bars but those are ticketed/reserved.

We're starting to get pretty affordable, then. You could probably bribe someone for like 500 bucks and then just buy people drinks to share their spot on the rail.

I am sure there will be a ton of people putting thousands of dollars on their credit cards which they will take years to pay off.
I can justify a certain level of insanity. I wouldn't like to pay this price but I would pay this price for a decent seat. However that option is not available. Need to pony up another 1k to get to the seats I would consider decent.

Yeah I wonder how much easy credit plays into the inflation of ticket prices. You hear about broke young people going to live events on installment all the time. I actually know some of them... they're deep in debt and it seems irresponsible.

Yeah. I can't imagine paying for a sporting event or concert in installments. That's wild but I think it has become the norm. I believe k00b previously posted something about 2/3 of coachella attendees financing their tickets.

The thing is, if the debt wasn't so available, the ticket prices would likely be cheaper and more affordable for everyone. This highlights the interaction between easy credit and inelastically supplied goods, which is why loosening mortgage credit is never a good solution to housing unaffordability, and why more generous health insurance is not a solution to high healthcare costs.

Right. The Blue Jays can't just say "damn there is a lot of demand, lets just issue another 50k tickets". They could increase the capacity of the stadium, but not by Friday.

Yes. We will see if prices come down a bit closer to the game but I am not counting on it. Similar seats were selling for 400-500 during the American League championship series. I thought they would probably double for the World Series but not 4x.

I could understand those prices , ranging from 400-500, as we are talking about a big final. What capacity has the stadium?
reply
30 sats \ 1 reply \ @grayruby OP 6h
Around 40k.
