CF 415, Row 1
Yes, I noticed that, too. I'm not sure why they're different, but I had no problem using it (getting through the turnstile, getting into the Prom Club). Also, it has the SH Customer Number and SH Confirmation Number listed on it.Originally Posted by robardin

Interesting. I wonder how the ushers are supposed to know the club access? For example if someone resells season tickets in the Prom Reserved on StubHub, how would the Caesars and Acela Club access on the original ticket get transferred (or don't they)?
For that matter, do they have such a good map of sections and rows and corresponding club access in their heads? Maybe I could, if I wanted to, convince the guy at the bottom of the escalator that Sec 113 Row 13 is the last row of Metro Box Silver, with Delta Club access

I wondered about that, too, since my ticket had Section 415 on it but no club access indicated. However, when I presented the ticket to the Prom Club guardian, she waved me in.Interesting.

the Yankee- Met game Sunday night CC vs. Dickey should be an interesting Stubhub ticket. So far cheapest ticket is $60. I wouldn't sell my seats even though I don't like 8:05PM starts. But last night was just over 2 hours so we could be out of there by 10:15.

The game time is unfortunate, sunday night and on TV it's up against the NBA finals. ESPN fail.

Mets to celebrate start of summer with special ticket offer
FLUSHING, N.Y., June 20, 2012 – The New York Mets today announced they will celebrate the start of summer with a special ticket offer for Subway Series games this Friday and Sunday nights at Citi Field. A limited number of Field Level Seats will be priced at tonight’s official game-time temperature. Tickets will go on sale at 7:15 p.m. this evening at Mets.com, the Citi Field Box Office, and (718) 507-TIXX.
Tonight’s game-time temperature is expected to be 93 degrees, which would translate into a ticket price of $93 for Left Field Reserved tickets for Friday’s game (currently priced at $115). For Sunday’s game, Field Box tickets would be sold for $93 (currently priced at $136). Quantities for both games are limited.
The Subway Series at Citi Field starts this Friday at 7:10 p.m., followed by a 7:15 p.m. start Saturday and 8:05 p.m. start Sunday. Tickets for all three games are available at Mets.com, the Citi Field Box Office and (718) 507-TIXX.
Fans are encouraged to use mass transit to get to Citi Field this weekend. The 7 train is the fast, convenient, and “green” way to travel to the game. The Mets-Willets Point stop is adjacent to the Jackie Robinson Rotunda. The Long Island Rail Road’s Port Washington Branch from Penn Station or Woodside has half-hourly service with the ride from Manhattan just 16 minutes. For those coming from the northern suburbs, all Metro-North trains on the Hudson, Harlem and New Haven lines connect with the 7 train.

I was at the game last night, gametime temperature was 94 degrees so they announced tickets for Friday and Sunday Yanks-Met games would be $94 for field level tickets, limited supply. They also did a short fireworks display after the 6th inning, I assume as a test prior to fireworks night on July 3.

I wish I'd held off buying a solo game ticket off of StubHub just 2 days earlier! $94 for Field Box would have been perfect (it came up as Sec 110 row 24 when I tried it earlier this morning). But I'd paid $168 for a solo ticket in Metro Box section 112 row 13 for Sunday night's game. A better seat, to be sure, but I'd rather have saved the $74.
Normally I avoid the Subway Series and detest Sunday ESPN 8pm games, and had long since sold my season tickets for the Sunday game, but I've got DICKEY FEVER now, baby! (Fortunately, my sale paid for my StubHub ticket and then some - I basically exchanged my season pair for this solo ticket plus $50.)
Oh, and as for last night's game: that Verizon FiOS T-Shirt is the UGLIEST giveaway I've ever gotten. It's basically a billboard, and one with no graphics whatsoever at that. There's nothing Mets-y about it at all, it's black with white lettering except for FiOS in red... And a small printing of the word "Mets" in white on the left sleeve. It's a shop rag, is what it is.

My son and I were handed the FIOS t-shirt, we both hated it and gave it back. Sometimes even free things aren't worth it. And no Dickey T-shirts for sale at any of the team stores at Citi. All sold out. Plenty of Bay shirts available.

They show clips of the fireworks on tv before the 7th inning started, and one of the announcers said that it was for an upcoming Verizon ad, but didn't say when it was going to air.

I've seen this sign up at one of the ticketing windows at Citi Field, to the left of the Rotunda:
Citi Field, 06/15/12: sign on the ticket windows means good news for Pepsi drinkers - "Redeem Your Mets 50th Anniversary Can Here" (IMG_1699) by Gary Dunaier, on Flickr
(As usual, credit to Gary for the pic to document it!)
Anybody know what it means? Not only have I yet to see these special Pepsi cans anywhere, I'm not sure what it is I could redeem them for.
Tickets, I assume, but where and for what games? Is it like the old "sit in bleachers for free on Wednesdays" offer, but now in the Pepsi Porch or LF Landing or something?

I've seen these cans in the wild. No mention of the ticket offer on the can itself. Has anyone any more information?

After blowing up Gary's pic to full screen, I can read the text on the bottom of the sign. It says: "Valid through July 25th excluding June 22nd-July 5th. Left Field Landing or Promenade Reserved seating sections."
There aren't a lot of home games left from now through July 25th excluding those games against the Yankees and Phillies:
7/06 (Friday) vs. Cubs
7/07 (Saturday) vs. Cubs
7/08 (Sunday) vs. Cubs
7/20 (Friday) vs. Dodgers
7/21 (Saturday) vs. Dodgers
7/22 (Sunday) vs. Dodgers
7/23 (Monday) vs. Nationals
7/24 (Tuesday) vs. Nationals
7/25 (Wednesday) vs. Nationals
Then again, that includes the Saturday 7/21 game that has an Edgardo Alfonzo Bobblehead giveaway. Can you imagine getting in for free to a Saturday "Premium" game, and getting a b-head to boot, for an empty Pepsi can?! Is that really the promo?

Gerardo Parra, a lefthand batter, steps in to lead off. Harvey's first pitch on the way, it's a fastball on the inside corner for a called strike, nothing and one, a 93-mile per hour fastball to Gerardo Parra. Parra batting at .281 with 6 homers, 28 runs batted in. - Howie Rose's call of Matt Harvey's very first pitch in the big leagues... Mets at Arizona, July 26, 2012
NYM: The fun never stops
That is exactly the deal, at least according to the lady at the ticket window on Saturday. One Pepsi can equals one free ticket, she "believes."
So today, I bought a can of Pepsi at a deli for a buck. (A can of soda costs a buck now? I'm out of touch. And holey moley, 41 grams of sugar in 12 ounces, so that's what the mayor's upset about.) Alas, no 50th anniversary mention on the diet cans.
Anyhoo, gonna try to reedem this thing and see what happens.

I got my free can from a lunch special at a Chinese takeout place today. I called 507-TIXX and it's not for a free ticket but a discount on game day.

Thanks for the clarification. Very strangely run promotion. Underpublicized and ambiguous.

Heard about the deal on the radio over the weekend. The radio ad provided a website. Here it is....I've seen this sign up at one of the ticketing windows at Citi Field, to the left of the Rotunda:

419 row 3 on the aisle..
According to mets.com the $22 Nathan's/Left Field Landing tickets are available for pick up on day of game only..
Has anyone had success in getting the tickets earlier from the box office??
Orange & Blue Pincushion
In a word: yes. That's assuming you mean the $20 ticket deals in LF Landing with the food vouchers, and think of them as $22 for the online fees, which you don't pay at the box office. I bought 9 tickets together to a Sunday game for a two-family outing there a few weeks ago at the ticket window, it was $20 each x 9 = $180 and I got a thick stack of tickets and food vouchers on the spot.
What they really mean is "ballpark pickup only", if you buy them online you have to get them at the ticket window, but it doesn't have to be on game day. I also bought these $20 "Power Pack" tickets LF Landing with food deals very early, back in mid March, for Fireworks Night - and got section 336 row 1, possibly the first tickets they sold under that deal for that game. I bought them via phone and got the fees dropped as a STH, and when I picked up other single game tickets at the ticket window a few weeks later they printed them and all the vouchers out to give to me at the same time.

Yes, a club I belong to bought a dozen tickets from the box office in advance for will-call pickup earlier this season. Left field landing for $22 including hamburger or hot dog, soda and fries. The date they got was a pretty good game, June 1st.

What's the link, then? I haven't gotten this email nor can I find the link via Google (at least, not using the search terms "Tickets@Phone Mets").
I didn't think the barcode scanners worked on phone displays - that's why you still have to print them out. So I wonder how showing a barcode on your mobile phone would actually work in terms of getting into the ballpark. But at least that way you still actually get sent barcodes that you can resell on StubHub if you had to or wanted to (unlike the "swipe your CC at the ballpark" option, which a few moments of thought would have you realize means you're SOL if you suddenly can't make the game - you would have a non-transferable ticket).
