I would be curious to know if anyone walked up to the ticket booth this weekend and bought a ticket? If so, where did you end up sitting?

GBO!!!

I know someone who bought general admission today and sat with us because of missing season ticket holders.

Two of the season ticket holders by us made their first game today.

Would they have been on the 3B side?

I’m looking to take all of the grad students in my research group to a game and think the GA/3rd base side is our only chance for ~14 people. We’ll see how it goes.

FWIW, I’m guessing a Tuesday game will be the easiest to get in. Also wouldn’t they get access to student tickets?

Good point, I’ll have to look into that, thanks. I think the students have to elect to pay a particular fee that gains them access to tickets, but I don’t know the details of that.

I believe UT has some sort of deal with vivid seats that allows for easy listing for resale there.

They do but it’s not been working properly or consistently for months. The ticket office is aware of this. In fact, noticed that they recently took the Vivid option away for baseball season tix. Not sure why other than it wasn’t working consistently. You can still upload them to your Apple or Google wallet and then text or email the digital tickets to others.

It’s an unfortunate reality of baseball. Many season ticket holders attend less than half the games…. And with the price of UT baseball season tickets, they don’t think about selling them. Many of the new season ticket holders will only show for the biggest events.

Good to know, wasn’t aware of that. I had noticed that there were less baseball tix on vivid than one might expect, so now that makes sense.

Yep, and the problem is exacerbated when almost the entire stadium is sold out as season tickets, oh well.

We can’t complain now can we? We’ve been talking about this, here for a while, been talking about renovations forever as well, been talking about every game being televised for a long time too.

It’s here. If you buy tickets to be first in line for regional, or super regional tickets, more power to ya. The hassle of not wanting to go to the effort of getting rid of midweek tickets is on you. Do. The. Right. Thing.

Or don’t.

GBO!!!
