I got some free tickets to a Cubs game recently and the face value was $75.00 <b>per ticket</b>. These were "box seats" 100 rows off the field. Toss in ten bucks for parking plus fifteen bucks per nose for food and it adds up fast. I don't see how families can do it more than once or twice a season, whereas I'd go to ten or twelve games a summer with my parents.<br /><br />That's why the minors are so popular: Decent baseball, future stars, and not a lot of cash.<br /><br />Cheers.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9454941.post-258456766501549102009-06-10T08:51:35.997-04:002009-06-10T08:51:35.997-04:00I've made it to third base before but never fi...I've made it to third base before but never fifth base!?Edhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13214319366049620074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9454941.post-57981698268091076772009-06-10T04:22:30.050-04:002009-06-10T04:22:30.050-04:00I suppose the reason 5/3's only pays0.05% inte...I suppose the reason 5/3's only pays0.05% interest on savings is because we savers are underwriting their ball club. <br /><br />The wife went to a Tigers game last week she said a bottle of water was $6 maybe 5/3 should buy Comerica park.the walking manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10058913927297370740noreply@blogger.com
