<br />Haven't read anything yet. Best guess....First Saturday after pitchers and catchers report. Biggest day of the year for ticket sales, both single game and some sort of season ticket packages. Be interesting to see how they are going to market those packages.

Why would anybody buy season tickets unless they're premium seats? Go on stubhub and pay nothing to sit anywhere in the building...

Worked great for me in 2012. I spent decent money on Opening Day $150/ticket for Lexus Gold seats without season tix and then sat all over the ballpark all season long for dirt cheap. I couldn't imagine that being an issue again in 2013...

 

But good luck with your season tix.

There isn't going to be such a large supply of resale tickets in 2013. So stub hub isn't going to be flooded like 2012.

exactly! This makes me think we will see a drastic fall off in actual attendance. Very few will be willing to pay full price.

Don't forget that the Marlins use dynamic pricing based on availability.  Good chance that as a game gets closer, it's price will drop dramatically.  Not 2012 StubHub levels obviously but still a bargain in comparison to advance sales.

We were long time season ticket holders.  And proud of it.  Going into 2012 we knew we would be dropping full season for some sort of partial plan for 2013.  But then Samson said in a televised interview he didn't care if Broward and PBC fans only went to 5 games a year.  It was a new team, new identity, and they were now looking for Dade fans and the biz community to fill those seats.  That was a slap in the face.  Don't want or need us anymore?  Fine.  We won't go.  Let's see how that works out for ya, David.  Kinda hard to believe this guy has a biz degree.

Samson is going to be cracking down on seat-swappers in 2013. He announced that he is using the millions saved in traded player contracts to triple the number of ushers and equip them all with tasers.

marketing people still have jobs to do, I guess

 

i even got a call today from a rep with the phoenix coyotes - left a messaging stating that they wanted to stay in touch through the lockout and discuss any games I'd want to attend once the puck drops

 

this from a team with no owner, for a league with no season

 

cross a couple bridges and then call

Broncobob,

All I have to say is you really need new material.

Isn't that about the combined amount Broward and PBC fans went to anyways?

Besides you, of course.
