Hey you know that crazy blogger who was suggesting the Mets have 7-packs? Â Well, look what Peter found online:

As you can see they’ve added one nugget to each package.
Here’s where it gets annoying: Say you want the opener pack…you have to buy two. Â There’s a $35 “Order Charge” and a $5 “Mail Charge” Â Why why why why why why why? Â Total amount $284. Â Promenade Reserved is the only section available.
Blue Cap Army, Opening Day, who’s in?
This is awesome. (You and your crazy 7 game packs, that made no sense)
That Opener pack is overvalued though. I guess because it’s weekdays, but Opener, Phillies, Braves, Interleague, and final Friday (which very well could have playoff implications/clinching if you think it’s gonna be a dogfight)? I’m without a doubt in for this as long as I can justify taking off for Opening Day from my ‘new’ job. (It’s not the newness that’s keeping me, it’s the budgeting vacation days for an October honeymoon)
Those are pretty standard order fees, and actually works out to less than you’d pay on a single ticket normally (and way less than ticketmaster, the Mets do us good in that regards and few even notice/appreciate. The system works so much better than ticketmaster as well) I’m emailing friends as we speak about buying this.
Of course, I don’t know how to feel about them not emailing anyone that they’re already on sale. (Especially us Club Mets people!)
and they’re gone. I should’ve just jumped in and bought them. silly me and ‘asking permission’ from others.
Are they sold out or pulled back? They definitely were on sale around 5.
I guess somebody in Mets land jumped the gun on listing these. Too bad.
pulled back. I checked after my second comment and was shown section 204 (which would be the first section on sale). Not 10 minutes later I clicked back and was redirected back to the main ticket page and the ‘6 pack’ link was no longer their under 15 pack and above shea seat sale.
Last year they didn’t get panicked and put the 5-packs on sale late March. I was stupid enough to buy a plan—my third that year—because a pal couldn’t come through with Openers. Section 107 it was, and Section 107 is the pits. No legroom, no view of the RF scoreboard…good view of that real excitin’ Subway sign that’ll launch a million instant replays on ambiguous HR balls.
back on sale.
Lost in this? the Pyrotechnics pack! which isn’t really taht good except for…
The return of FIREWORKS NIGHT!
Now I’m curious how/where they’re going to shoot them off.
I loved Fireworks Night at Shea.
I hope on July 3, 2010, when the stadium is empty of everyone and everything but rats and roaches, there’s an ‘accident.”
I can deal with the Mets playing in Cyclones Park for a few years while they rebuild a real MLB stadium.
All it will take is one or two stray fireworks and there goes 126 Street! Betcha there’s a lot of flammable stuff in those shops.
Maybe that’s their plan.
