This season, the Boston Red Sox will use a digital ticketing system at select games for upper bleacher seats at Fenway Park.
Super Bowl ticket prices remain high despite fluctuations
Fans descending on Indianapolis looking for a Super Bowl ticket bargain the week beginning January 29 are seeing prices fall, but they should still be prepared to drop thousands of dollars to join the New York Giants, the New England Patriots, and about 68,000 other fans at Lucas Oil Stadium on Super Sunday.
The average resale price for a ticket has dropped below the $4,000 mark on most major ticket search sites.
Tigers ticket sales skyrocket after Fielder signing
When Prince Fielder was 12 years old, he was already reaching the seats with home runs at Tiger Stadium in batting practice sessions with his dad, Tigers slugger Cecil Fielder.
Sixteen years later, Prince is back in Detroit and Tigers fans will watch Cecil's son deposit baseballs over Comerica Park's fences and beyond. Fielder signed one of the richest deals in baseball history on January 24, 2012, when he joined his father's old team.
Giants Super Bowl ticket lottery winners an elite club
For longtime New York Giants season ticket holders who were shut out from buying tickets to Super Bowl XLVI, the team has a message for you: join the club: club seating, that is.
Owners of the Giants' Mezzanine Club and Coaches Club seats at MetLife Stadium stood a good — and in some cases a better — chance at being selected for the opportunity to purchase the limited number of tickets available to see the Giants play the New England Patriots this Sunday, February 5, in Indianapolis than non-club season ticket holders.
Robert Tuchman talks Super Bowl parties & more
As the market for Super Bowl tickets continues to grow over the years with football lovers willing to pay top dollar to experience the biggest game of the year, the market for pre- and post-Super Bowl parties seems to have grown just as steadily.
MAXIM’s party has become a Super Bowl fixture with corporate executives paying more for a spot on the guest list than a ticket to the game itself for a chance to mingle with celebrities and athletes.
Team USA roster picks have little effect on NBA ticket sales
Kobe Bryant and LeBron James were recently announced as finalists for the U.S. Olympic basketball team to compete in this summer's Olympic Games in London, but the news has not done much for their NBA teams' sales.
The preliminary roster, announced on January 16, includes 18 players who participated in either the gold-medal willing 2008 squad or the 2010 World Championship team. There is little doubt that the powerhouse lineup will repeat the stellar performances of past championships, with coach Mike Krzyzewski (coach for the 2008 and 2010 teams) telling the AP on Monday, "This will be the most talented of the three teams that I've had the opportunity to coach."
Cincinnati Reds hope for small deals to pay off
The Cincinnati Reds didn't make the kind of expensive, high-profile moves that other major league teams did this off-season, but they're hoping some relatively inexpensive additions pay off in improvement in both the standings and at the gate.
While the small-market Reds watched teams such as the Los Angeles Angels and Miami Marlins spend hundreds of millions, Cincinnati responded to a disappointing third-place finish by signing outfielder Ryan Ludwick and closer Ryan Madson. The Reds also made trades to acquire starting pitcher Mat Latos from the San Diego Padres and left-handed reliever Sean Marshall from the Chicago Cubs.
St. Louis Rams bound for London's Wembley Stadium
The NFL's St. Louis Rams, whose future in the Gateway City remains uncertain, will become London's "home" team for one game per year over the next three seasons.
The league announced plans for the three-year plan for its International Series on January 20. The series begins October 28, when St. Louis "hosts" the AFC champion New England Patriots at Wembley Stadium in London, England. Opponents for the 2013 and 2014 games have yet to be determined.
New England Patriots to raise ticket prices for 2012 season
Coming off another trip to the Super Bowl, the New England Patriots will raise ticket prices for the first time since 2008. The only affected areas, however, will be midfield seats in the upper and lower levels of Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, MA.
Season ticket prices for lower-level midfield seats will increase from $169 to $185, and upper-level midfield seats will go from $89 to $99. Individual game tickets will see a similar price increase, with lower midfield seats now $211 (up from $185), and upper midfield set to $109 (up from $99).
Super Bowl XLVI preview: Pats-Giants rematch drives ticket sales
A case of super déjà vu has fans and ticketing professionals excited about the match-up for Super Bowl XLVI on February 5 in Indianapolis, IN.
The New York Giants and New England Patriots will meet in two weeks at Lucas Oil Stadium. It will be a rematch of one of the most exciting Super Bowls ever — New York's 17-14 victory over New England in 2008 that ruined the Patriots' perfect season.
