March 21, 200422 yr Let's make sure that everyone has their car-flags flying proudly for the few days leading up to Opening Day, so that everyone in South Florida knows who the World Champs are! Between the car magnets and flags, my car will look like a freakin' parade float! I'll have it all done when I go to MIA to pick up my sister who is flying in from LA to go to the game with me. (She's a Cub's fan! :mischief ) We were supposed to go see Shania together (front row seats!), but then the concert was pushed back. :banghead
March 21, 200422 yr While we are on the topic of opening day, I checked ticketmaster today and the best seats they had were sec 413, which is upperlevel left center field. Maybe we will sell out the stadium after all. I will be at saturdays game vs the phillies when they give out the rings, so maybe we can get a crowd of 60,000 and one of 40,000 in the first 5 games of the season.

Again, the FO is expecting full-capacity 65,000 crowds for both opening day and April 10th.

March 21, 200422 yr I didnt know they were expecting it for april 10th. A few weeks ago I didnt think opening day would sell out, but after checking ticketmaster, I think they should have no problem getting 60,000. April 10th tickets are not selling as quickly as opening day, but since its a saturday and they are giving rings out it should get a big crowd.
March 22, 200422 yr arent the rings just for the first 30k, if so do you think in the case of a sellout they may get more made? PS: I go to UF and will be going home from monday to sunday to go to the games on the opening weak, and that being the case will be missing a week of school, so I hope other fans that live 15 minutes away will show up.
March 22, 200422 yr It will be interesting to see how many people go to the other games besides the 6th and 10th in that first homestand.
March 22, 200422 yr I got my ticket for the 6th today (ordered it and printed it today--that TicketFast option on Ticketmaster.com is a snap for me, especially since I got caught in last year's Opening Day will-call fiasco). Just look for the guy in a Woodypaige.com t-shirt, and you'll find me. :shifty
March 22, 200422 yr Yeah its great that we will have such big crowds on opening day and when they are giving out rings but I want to see how many show up for the rest of the season, when there isnt anything being given away.
March 22, 200422 yr Well I want to go to see the White Sox and Rangers and a few other NL teams that will be playing only during the middle of the week, so I plan on stretching my attendance this season
March 22, 200422 yr I'll be in Disney World when all this is going on, but I am going to the game on the 11th.
