Playoff game times

[OldSchoolSnapper]

I would think not for the LCS. There are only 2 matchups. You just have them go every other night so one is on every night.

That would make sense, but then again starting any playoff game at 3:00 or whatever on a Thursday makes no sense so you never know.

Despite the early time the secondhand prices are still really high, I assume in anticipation of a Cubs matchup. If the Rockies win it will be interesting to see how much they drop.

Yeah, they won't do that. That adds 3 or 4 days. It's already pushing November most years.

 

 

There's still a game every night. There's just one during the day 3 or 4 times during the lcs's.

There will be one or two 3 pm weekday games during the LCS — probably Tuesday and Wednesday

There were 3 last year. Which is what I was basing it off of. 3 days they don't have to play in November, which is a big deal.

Yes they are. I have had my eyes on stubhub tix for WC and NLDS 1 and 2 games and since last night prices have at the very least increased by 50% (Terrace) and in some cases more than doubled (infield loge). I purchased 2 terrace for 110 each minutes after the Crew defeated the Cubs yesterday. The same area is now 180. I live out of state so was at a major disadvantage trying to get tickets through brewers.com.

I know there are days where they both play, but I just assumed they tried to pack those into the weekend. I have no recollection of it at all, but you're right, if they both went 7 games, that's a 2-week LCS.

Does anybody on here ever use shuttles from bars/restaurants in the Milwaukee area to get to & from Miller Park? Any suggestions on any of them that are usually quick and easy outs when leaving Miller Park?

 

I usually just park and tailgate, but time won't allow tailgating on Thursday and Friday so was curious if taking a shuttle would be better. I'm coming from north of Milwaukee.

 

I've used them. If you're looking to get out of there quickly, a shuttle is not the way to go unless you plan to rush over to the pickup spot as soon as the game is over (while frantically searching for exactly where your shuttle might be amongst the 50+ lined up at the pickup spot)

 

I've found myself, more and more often, parking on Wisconsin/Wells and walking down to the stadium. 20 minute walk. No hassle leaving.

 

I know Baldkin has had trouble, but my wife and I take Steve's and it's in and out sperm easy. They have gates up for lines now. We havent waited longer than 5 minutes and have done it 5 times in the last 2 months and we start until the final pitch every time.

[Blunt36]

Anymore badgering, berating, or belittling fellow posters over who they sell their tickets to is going to be met with bans. This subject is done let's talk about the games, the schedules, and other things, but this belittling other posters for what they choose to sell or do what their tickets is done. It's finished. Cool??

 

I think this was a good call and I’m glad this topic can be avoided going forward...

 

...but I’m watching the NL WC game right now and I see a familiar annoying orange jersey in the second row. Can we at least all agree to not sell a ticket to Marlins Man?

[PlayerHader]

Can anyone provide insight into how it works transferring tickets once sold on Stub Hub? Due to the early times, I’ll probably have a couple to part with for Friday.

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Stubhub sent out an email yesterday about Brewers game that they've altered the policy. You will have until 6 hours before first pitch to fulfill an order for any Brewers games. You can list them up to 4 hours before, at 4 hours they will be removed and you can re-list with barcodes.

 

You can list them now and put the codes in when you get them, but if they sell, you have to have the codes in 6 hours before or you risk penalties etc. As soon as you enter the codes, you're golden, their automation handles the rest. You don't have to "transfer" anything.

 

I have a feeling the codes will come out sooner than rumored with the Cubs eliminated. There is no point to making it inconvenient now.

They may come out sooner, but isn't the plan for the Brewers to release them 6 hours prior to the game right now? That makes the 6 hours requirement impossible, not?

[OldSchoolSnapper]

The Brewers releasing codes ~6 hours was never an official statement.

 

Stubhub has an event fulfillment team that works directly with the teams, so I'm guessing they got some working knowledge of when the codes will be available and designed the policy as such. I think the codes will be released earlier than that though. There would have been headaches with this 6 hour thing anyway, there is absolutely no need to risk that with Colorado playing the games now.

 

It doesn't make sense for Stubhub to make a policy that creates a disaster for their sellers and buyers so I am guessing 6 hours will be ample time.

Thanks a ton!

Ticket prices appear to be coming down. I've been watching Game 2, SRO was $120 with fees yesterday, now down under $100.

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Yeah, it is more in line with the market for the Diamondbacks series now.

[owbc]

Dropping like a rock. Now $57+fees to get in and $70+fees for the cheapest seat.

[Outlander]

Keep on waiting, should be able to get in for face or lower if you wait until Friday. Cubs fans have to salvage some of the money spent.

[chuckiehacks]

Oh, I'm fine waiting until Friday. I have good seats for Thursday, just want to be in the building for game 2. This is so much easier than the old days when you had to deal exclusively with Craigslist and scalpers in the lot.

[Patrick425]

Ticket prices have plummeted since last night. SRO was going for $120 at one point last night, they are now at $50. As a fan, enjoyed the Cubs losing last night. However, because of them losing, I will not be able to attend the Friday game. I have 4 tickets for tomorrow and I am selling two of them. At one point I thought I could make enough off the sale of those two tickets to offset most of the cost of all 3 NLDS games (can't risk assuming there will not be a game 5 - and if there is, there is no way I'm not going to that) and not have to miss any of them. Not the case any more.

[TURBO]

parking is ridiculous.

[OldSchoolSnapper]

I had Cubs fans bite on some of mine and got lucky. The rest of the ones I can't use I'm the lowest-priced listing across many sections. I had a lot of friends bail on me when the times came out. Oh well, that's the name of the game.

[TURBO]

Never purchased SRO tickets before. Where are you allowed to stand?

[OldSchoolSnapper]

There is parking available on Brewers.com still.
