And Reyes will be enjoying the next few weeks at home too.
I'm pretty sure the "Game 3 @ Miller Park" were available in the lottery but most of us went for games 1 & 2 because game 1 had to happen and game 2 was at least likely. Game 3 wasn't even guaranteed to be in Milwaukee at the time. And if you think you're gonna get into the word series for $225, good luck.Hey, if you REALLY want to see a playoff game, <a href="http://www.jsonline.com/newswatch/130845638.html">there are plenty of tickets left in Arizona.</a> aside: how awesome is that select-a-seat thing???? Why don't we have that??
Someone at work sent an email selling tickets for Game 5 - for 4 times the face value. $225 for 1 ticket? For the World Series maybe. Not the first round. btw, are Game 5 tickets available to the general public? I don't think that was a lottery option.
In 1982, my parents went to the stadium on their lunch break and bought tickets for the playoffs and World Series. Just walked up to the ticket office.
In 1991, my World Series tickets for Lower Level, Third Base side were $60 each.Someone at work sent an email selling tickets for Game 5 - for 4 times the face value. $225 for 1 ticket?

Thanks for the heads-up to check my email. I got a single ticket in 424 for Saturday. Ticket was $38 with all fees, parking is apparently going to be $25 (yikes!). I checked on singles for Game 5 and was given the option to buy a diamond box seat for only $206. Too much for me to spend on the NLDS.
apparently they did not send the email to everyone (I have no idea if I got it, but my mom did - my aunt did not). They had a single on Saturday in Sec 119, row 10 ($95) that I would have taken in a heartbeat if I didn't have tickets to any other games. I have no idea how my mother got club seats for game 5, because right before, she had Uecker seats, and she checked again after she bought the club seats, and got SRO. I am lucky she is retired and has no life.
Great googily-moogily!
It's nice to read someone advocating for our fandom, rather than slurping the Phils. I like the part about Roenicke:Rick Reilly article on the Brewers: <a href="http://espn.go.com/espn/story/_/id/7038412/rick-reilly-milwaukee-brewers">The funnest team around</a>
I like this quote from jsonline:
"It's kind of like the night before a math test and Christmas Eve rolled into one," said Rick Schlesinger, the Brewers' vice president of business operations. "It's excitement, but also you don't have control over what that first question will be on the math test."
That pretty much sums up how I feel. Did I mention I am already nervous for tomorrow?
