The Yankees are playing two exhibition games against the Cubs in early April, which will be the first two baseball games at Yankee Stadium. This is old news. The new news is that they are going to be selling them really cheap:
The price of a bleacher seat for the exhibition openers at the new Yankee Stadium will cost far less than a soda.
The Yankees said Wednesday that bleacher seats for the games against the Chicago Cubs on April 3 and 4 will sell for 25 cents and grandstand tickets will be $1.10. That matches the prices for the opener of the original Yankee Stadium against Boston on April 18, 1923.
Field level seats at the 52,325-seat ballpark will cost $45-$50, main level $20-$45 and terrace level $20-$35. Full season-ticket holders will get the seats for free, and those who bought partial season-tickets will be given a presale.
That’s actually really cool. Hopefully I’ll be able to snag a few. I’m interested in what the TicketMaster charges will be, though.
