Nope, Your New York Mets And Yankees Tickets Aren’t Going To Sell (Times)

Saved this from yesterday…and at 7pm Saturday it was the top-sent article on the Times.   The blogoverse knows this already, but there’s zero demand for NYC baseball tickets.  Stubhub is the way to go to buy tickets below cost (and I’m slitting my own throat telling you this, but it’s not a state secret.)

The Times predicts for 2010 what I do:


The weak resale market has Goldman and a growing number of Mets and Yankees season-ticket holders considering whether to drop their seats next year, or to switch to a plan with fewer games or cheaper seats. The risk of being stuck with expensive tickets that are hard to resell, they said, is just too high in a weak economy.


“I figured this year would be a no-brainer,” said Goldman, a salesman from New Hyde Park on Long Island. “But it’s a buyer’s market. I get offers all the time for my tickets that are insultingly low. I don’t know that being a season-ticket holder is the right route.”
