I would like someone to take me to Yankee Stadium. I wish I can meet the players.

I think this is where Yankees fans and Mets fans can unite in saying, "This guy is a moron"....

BTW, thanks for solidifying the stereotype that people from NJ are idiots....good job.

Hi Guys!
It seems like only yesterday we were on this board waiting for our Yankee rep to call us about the 2008 season tickets... That took forever!!

I spoke to my rep on Friday and she told me to expect the relocation package in the next few weeks. She said everything should be covered in there. I have tickets in the main box area by the right field foul pole(c plan) and she told me I probably won't be in the main box area on the seat relocations.

I'm a little bummed, but I figured this might happen with a new stadium and all.

So if you call up for Premium tickets are they offering the smaller plans with these premium seats too?

I too have a mini plan(D-Saturday) in Main Box 329, not far from yours. That is distressing, but not at all surprising news, that we won't have similar seats in the NYS. Did the rep give you any clue as to whether these mini-plans will even be offered at all, in any part of the new park? I would not be surprised if they are eliminated altogether!

[GordonGecko]

Mini-plans are a big reason the Yankees have sold so many tickets in the past few years, and their business model is being copied by more and more teams. Mini-plans attract fans that can't or won't afford season tickets but still want to go the premium and playoff games, and who end up seeing the Royals and Orioles as part of their package that they might not have normally paid for. Plus it keeps more die-hard fans in the Stadium and maintains a strong fanbase.

I would be completely shocked if the Yankees didn't offer any more plans. I wouldn't be shocked though, if they announced that the entire Stadium was going to be licensee only with no more individual tickets and a 2+ year waiting list to get a package.

The yankee stadium insider blog mention in ny metro blog that the yanks may ban outside food in 2009.
This is only speculation but if this becomes a reality there will be a lot of angry yankee fans.
Here is the link for the article

As a met fan i am used to the yanks being first with information better tickets plans etc.
I am shocked the yanks have been quiet about ticket prices and other matters while the mets have been open with a lot for citi field
The yankees are walking a fine line and they may cross the line with die hard fans in order to increase concession revenue.

Well, I was told, a few months ago, by my rep that the "C" Plan would most likely change in terms of the game types and would still be available in some form at the NEW Yankee Stadium. Also, it would probably not include Opening Day and Old Timers day.

It's amazing how long they have taken with this. The Mets are plowing through and filling up their new ballpark.

This is just some annonymous guy on another board, so take it for what it's worth:

my uncle, who works for grandstand designs, the people making the relocation books, said that the books that are going out were done in july and that they were handed a project to print up over 3,000 letters for relocation in the stadium. he said that it came in like 2 weeks ago and that as far as he knew, they were all done. the yankees have everything now, just a matter when they start sending things out.

my uncle told me that the books are really nice. he said that the yankees spent around $100,000 on these books. The cover is real nice but he said the yankees skimped out on the binding going with staples instead of the actual bonding that vogue would have. he said that his worker had a copy and that he would try to get me one aswell. if i get anything, ill be sure to scan some things and let you guys know stuff.

just thought i would give a small update

Amazing, prices for the final game in Tier Reserved (non-mvp) have just hit over $450 a ticket. Those stubs are like a hot tech stock, they just keep going up!

I am very troubled to learn that the current players Mr. H. Matsui, Mr. S. Ponson, Mr. X. Nady, and Mr. C. Ransom, as well as the former players Mr. K. Mmahat (1989) and Mr. P. Altimirano (included in the 12/4/84 trade from Chicago, National League, along with Mr. R. Bordi, Mr. H. Cotto, and Mr. R. Hassey for Mr. R. Fontenot and Mr. B. Dayett, but did not participate, actively or otherwise, in an officially sanctioned game for the New York, American League, club) are not included among the list of gentlemen who you have identified as your favorite players.

With all due respect to you and your right to choose which athletes you do like and do not like it would please me greatly if you would "show some love," as the youth of today are wont to say, for the aforementioned gentlemen named in the preceding paragraph.

Here's the overview:

[trueblue9441]

im quite suprized at the number of decently priced seats. not bad i think the yankees did real well with this pricing structure and have not completely priced out the average joe.. except in the lower deck but of course most of those seats will be corporations anyways

Based on these prices, they seem to be much more reasonable than the Mets...

[YankeeFanBx]

The seats are priced fairly, for NY. When I look at other teams prices for seats, all I can do is shake my head. It seems like you just have to pay more if it has NY on it.

[CoreyNYC]

Actually the Yankees are way more expensive for comprable tickets. A $25 seat at CF appears to be somewhat lower (in height from the field) than a $25 ticket at NYS and so on...

[GordonGecko]

I think the problem with comparing is the roughly 10K less seats at Citi. You go from very expensive to cheap without much of a transition

[Perseus71]

Not too bad at all! I am actually very excited about this. The big losers have to be the main box holders with the B plan from the fouls pole towards home plate. Otherwise, it looks pretty good all around... I am a little bummed that my C plan doesn't cover opening day or the field level seats, but it's not that big of a deal.

GG, I'm not able to find that screen you posted with the plans and the "Please click here to view..." , is that up on the Yankees site, or is it from someplace else?

Looks like it was only up as a test and has since been taken down.

They took almost everything down a few hours after we got a hold of all the juicy details since they hadn't published the links to any of it. You can still fill out your relocation survey thoough by logging in to one of these three links:
