On my way to Queens

The great blog Mets Police, our home for these many years. We have endured the wilderness of space. And now we are near the end of our journey.

 

No post from me this morning…stay tuned for what should be a fun day.

I left you a long long post on tickets last night if you need something to read.

Live from Flushing coming up….and follow @metspolice on twitter for sure. I’ll be tweeting before and after the press conference (starts at 11) and observing proper etiquette during, and right after I will snap pics, kidnap Cerrone and Rubin so I can take over the blogiverse, and then post it all.

In the meantime, here’s a shot from my office where I spent two hours blogging last night.  This should explain a lot about me.

 

My tickets got more expensive???: An in-depth look at the Mets ticket plans

Here’s my take on the ticket plans. This is a really long post, so I just have the excerpt on the main page, click through to see the rest.  This post contains lots of opinions, my math may be terrible and I may be making some incorrect assumptions.  Nothing would make me happier than for you guys to tell me I added wrong or can’t read a chart.

My takeaway is that even though Dave gave me the plan I wanted (an option to have all Saturdays), my 2-tickets plan (who goes to games alone?) got a lot more expensive. And it is possible that I won’t have “my” seats.  20 game plans have guaranteed same seats whereas the 15 “make your own” don’t.  To be fair, it is possible my ticket rep could hook that up.

Plenty here if you want to keep reading, including a walk through my math.

Mets announce new ticket plans

Wow busy day.  I just got this and need to digest it.  Commentary in a bit.  I have barely even read it…

 

On behalf of everybody at the Mets, thank you for your support this season as a Mets Plan Holder.

In our ongoing efforts to serve you better, we have revamped our Ticket Plans for 2012 in response to your feedback.

Our 2012 Ticket Plans offer you more flexibility to choose your games, better seats in new locations, and a variety of prices from which to choose.

We are introducing four different 20-Game Plans, two of which consist solely of Friday, Saturday and Sunday weekend games and select holidays. The other two plans offer an assortment of weekday games. In each plan, tickets for all 20 games will be in the same seat and you’ll receive a discount off the established box office price.

20-GAME PLANS

Our new 15-Game Pack provides you with the flexibility to pick the games you want. After choosing one marquee game – Opening Day, Thursday, April 5 or one of the Subway Series games June 22-24 at Citi Field – select your remaining 14 games from any game on the schedule. Seat location may vary based on your game selections.

15-GAME PACKS

Also in 2012, we are providing our 20-Game Plan and 15-Game Pack Holders with enhanced benefits, including an invitation to an exclusive plan and pack holder event at Citi Field – details to come!

We greatly appreciate your continued support and business.

Let’s Go Mets!

Sincerely,
Leigh J Castergine

**Goon here with a  little bit of an add on. I called my ticket rep as soon as I got the email. I love my seats so I asked him if I went for the 20 game plan if I can keep my same seats.Said if  previous plan holders seats are available,they will try to get you same seats from past season.

Also for the 15 game packs seat location my vary due to games chosen.*****
