That's what I spent for 20 Mariner tickets today. Whew. Interesting to buy 2018 baseball tickets on the very last day of the 2017 season. The Mariners (and probably all baseball teams) do this kind of fun thing for their first month of season ticket sales. They have 30 days of prizes starting today. As soon as you pay 20% of your ticket price your name goes into the prize bucket for drawing. The prizes are pretty handsome, actually. I'd love to win one. Also it looks like they are going to pay for my MLB At Bat subscription next year. Nice.

I've got a note into my sales guy asking about which games are mine. I found a list but I'm not sure it's the right one. I also did a deep dive into credit card cash back and discovered that Discover is the loser in this game. It would pay me .25% on the first $1,000 and then 1% on the rest. Capital One pays me 1.5% on the whole megillah. That's $80 smackers. Almost a whole inning paid for! ha. I crack myself up.

Also my sales guy says I can sell the parking pass that comes with each game. They are set up with Stub Hub. Mostly those passes go for $20-30 or more. Another little windfall.

Nice.

Those prizes are a cool incentive! (We only get a quarter-season, and they're in the super-cheap seats, so if the Nats have a similar deal, we aren't eligible ::wry grin:: )

If you won the photo with a Mariner player, who would you chose? Just wondering--

It sounds like a lot of money, but it's not much more than people spend on concerts. I always enjoy your reports from the games!

I'd hate to know the grand total I've spent on concerts over the years...but I don't regret it.
