Season tickets picked

[TonySoprano]

Single Game Tickets - Mid-March? That is what a rep told me. Everything is a little behind with all the packages they sold at playoff time.

The ticket office must be working hard, lots of cars in Lot A during the daytime.

Typically the only numbers you will ever see are full season equivalents, that is the total of season tickets with 81 game plan seats counting as 1, 29-game plans counting as .36 and 13 game plans counting as .16. That number is not usually publicly available, but it tends to be fairly consistently around 60-65 percent of the total attendance. So for last season, figure 18 to 20 thousand season ticket equivalents for the 30,426 average attendance. I'm not sure I have ever seen a full breakdown of each plan. Obviously they sold season ticket plans during the postseason last year, so both numbers will likely increase.

If anyone has worked in the ticket office, they would have more exact figures but these are decent ballpark numbers, no pun intended.

Got my 13 Game Sunday plan hooked up this afternoon. Section 12 Row 6 in Lower Box. Surprised I was able to get so close to the field on the 13 gamer. I'm pumped!

New 13 game plan from postseason deposit?

[Pedro Cerrano]

So, 13 game holders will only get tickets to one game per playoff series?

[Samatwing]

So, 13 game holders will only get tickets to one game per playoff series?

In past years, yes. Example: I had ticket to game 2 of every round last year. But now 13 game plan holders get zero playoff tickets. Bummed.

This contradicts what others are saying.

That's right.

I heard for people who placed deposits and are new season ticket holders that they should get the process rolling for them sometime late next week. Payment is due by February 13th for the old season ticket holders. They will give a few extra days ,just in case they are a little late paying. Also remember this date:

All Season Plan Members will have an opportunity to purchase tickets to Opening Day via an online presale, based on seniority, which will take place on Thursday, March 19. On a first-come first-served basis, members will be eligible to purchase one Opening Day ticket for each Plan Seat purchased during the pre-sale, not to exceed 6 tickets. Opening Day tickets are not available to the general public. All sales will be subject to availability.

I think everyone is freaking out over nothing..... I think when its all said and done every 13 game plan owner will be able to get tickets to 1 game per series if the Orioles make the playoffs. It might not be "guaranteed" but I am sure with presales you will be able to get tickets to at least 1 game per series.

I also think people should stop hating on people with 29 and 81 game plan holders and their rights to more than you. This year they wont be guaranteed as much either. Keep in mind 29 game plan holders invested more than twice as much in the Orioles than the 13 game plan holders. 81 game plan holders invested more than 6 times that of 13 game plan holders. More investment in the team better perks. I think that makes sense and is fair.

It could be worse the Orioles could not offer the chance to buy tickets for post season games to anyone in terms of a presale. We get better pricing than the general public and those games will sellout regardless if there is a presale or not. The Orioles could not offer that and take home more by just selling at the increased pricing to the general public.

The Orioles aren't doing a real good job explaining things to their 13 game holders. The Opening Day and postseason info is very vauge. Right when they put the renewals out they slip in about Opening Day being based on senority. Where the cutoff is nobody knows.

It isn't like they let people know this back in November. A month after the holidays and only 2 months before Opening Day they finally release ticket renewals and slip this info in. The biggest reason I became a 13 game plan holder was for Opening Day. Certainly 29 game holders should get more perks, not arguing that. As far as postseason are the Orioles saying including the full 81 plan holders plus all 13 plan holders that they have more than 45,000 of those? Last year all 13 plan holders got the 2nd game of each series. Now they are saying it is based on senority. I think they have done a poor job here.

Nice. I was in sect 12 row 4 about 10 years ago....very very good seats. I was right behind the ballgirl.

I've only sat in Section 12 one time and I wasn't a fan. The seats are angled so that in order to see home plate and you have to sit sideways.My neck was killing me by the 5th inning.

I think Section 8 is the best place to sit if you are down the right field line.
