Actually I'm paying less than I did last year...seats were $25 and $29 for the two plans that I had. <BR/><BR/>The majority of the seats on the lower levels will be a $100 or less with the exception of the exclusive <BR/>$2,500 and a few other areas that will sell for more than $100. <BR/><BR/>Where my seats will be located is a different story as last year I had one plan in Tier 3 and the other in Tier 19. I certainly don't expect that to be the case this year tho'..I just have to wait and see ..hopefully I'll find out by the end of the month.

Sadly, there was no sign of Angelina Jolie.<BR/><BR/>As for restaurants, somebody once said New York has the worst expensive meals and the best cheap meals. Righteous Urban Barbecue on 23rd Street has terrific meals for under 20 bucks. And, until this past August, the Yankees had never lost when I ate there. Sadly, that streak ended at four games. But I still recommend the place tremendously, and not just for the food: They got a big honkin' screen there.<BR/><BR/>Anonymous: I'm not sure the Babe could afford those seats, though, despite being dead for 60 years, once again, he had a better year than the President.<BR/><BR/>Actually, he probably could. After all, Joe DiMaggio once said that, with what was being paid to today's players (this was in the early 1980s), he'd say to Steinbrenner, "George, you and I are going to be partners."Uncle Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11618876073064128027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8624254435992330014.post-69885192822160881532009-01-15T20:18:00.000-05:002009-01-15T20:18:00.000-05:00the tickets at citi will be more expensive as well...the tickets at citi will be more expensive as well, so I can't pick on the yankees too much here...but they did just committ $430 million to 3 players, didn't they? money's gotta come from somewhere, and to be fair, yankee fans are very demanding, it costs money to be successful.<BR/><BR/>on a side note, Per Se is worth every penny for anyone who is into event dining. The Four Seasons, not so much, it is more the idea of what the four seasons represents than the quality of the dining experience itself. haven't tried masa's as the wife is not into exotic japanese food, but have heard great things. for a similiar experience, though not as exclusive, try Morimoto's omikase, at $120 a person it is worth a try!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8624254435992330014.post-40053471335584360612009-01-15T15:32:00.000-05:002009-01-15T15:32:00.000-05:00I agree, Nam.I agree, Nam.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8624254435992330014.post-11093753871739536222009-01-15T15:19:00.000-05:002009-01-15T15:19:00.000-05:00If the ticket and concession prices were consumer-...If the ticket and concession prices were consumer-friendly to the average working person, I'd be more than happy to pay my share into helping the Yankees in any way possible, but in return I want to be afforded the opportunity to see my team perform within a reasonable budget.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8624254435992330014.post-64418131854731388202009-01-15T15:11:00.000-05:002009-01-15T15:11:00.000-05:00Wow, that is staggering.

It is a sad day when it is more affordable to buy a 50" t.v. and pay for the baseball package than it is to go to 4 baseball games. Why can't we just sit on bleachers and enjoy the game. This is insane. And I don't mean that as a blast just to the Yankees.

I heard in 1996 they were $25.00 a ticket, but for them to be going for $2000.00 to $2500.00 a ticket is just unjustified. There is just not that much money around these days, All teams are going to be hurting, including the Yankees.<BR/>I really can see in all the sports seeing teams folding in the next couple of years if the economy remains so bad.nutballgazettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15953156266049373818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8624254435992330014.post-80134765827053508092009-01-15T13:59:00.000-05:002009-01-15T13:59:00.000-05:00Lisa, are you beginning to wonder if the Yankees m...Lisa, are you beginning to wonder if the Yankees made a mistake with this new ballpark?
