Yesterday I was watching the Pirates and Yankees Spring Training Game on MLBN and honestly it felt like a PBS special for the Pirates to get their viewers to purchase season tickets and season tickets. The game would constantly cut into the Pirates' offices showing people on the phones buying plans and they would have interviews with personnel about why this is a good time to purchase season tickets. The tone of the announcers during the game also felt like a PBS special, it was very weird.
However the season ticket plans they were offering were incredible:
20 Game Pack – $140 (13 Saturday Games, 6 Friday Games, Opening Day)
20 Game Pack – $140 (13 Sunday Games, 6 Friday Games, Opening Day)
Half Season Pack – Starting at $246
Single game for $18 including a Pirates Hat
Single game for $21 included a Replica Clemente Jersey
81 Games – $999 or $12 a seat
81 Games – $399 or $5 a seat
Also all season ticket purchases yesterday received a free Bill Mazeroski autographed baseball.
For those prices, if you are marginally a Pirates fans living in the area, it may be time to splurge a little.
