Competing with the Yankees

Nice to see our small market club in first place, and I was just going to enjoy it for a while. Then I saw this on the internet today:

A friend called last week to tell me he'd been offered 4 season tickets at the new Yankee stadium. 4th row behind home plate. Wider seats with covers. Food is free.

Cost -$850. per seat, per game.
81 game season.
$68,850. for one seat.
$275,400. for 4.

Can you imagine what the Yankees payroll can be if they can get $275,000 for 4 season tickets? Ug ...

Yeah, but it's kinda too bad I don't have that kinda money.

It sure would be nice to have 4 seats worth of “OAKLAND ATHLETICS” right behind home plate for every Yankee game.

That would be a great deal for Blanton's family

I like Cindi. A. She never pretends to know more than she does. B. She has unbridled enthusiasm for her "Hotties," and isn't afraid to show it. -IM4Oakgal
