Some Tickets Open - but group closed

We have some Field Box tickets still open, but I decided not to add anyone else to the group for the time being - I think I reached my limit (or maybe a bit beyond!) in the overhead needed for so many people.  Plus, this gives us some flexibility during game selection and also when we come back to giving numbers for 2011 tickets.  (I had a friend or two wavering on joining...I'll let them in if they decide).

If anyone wants to add to their previous purchase, I can do that.  And then at the end I'll have extra tickets that I'm sure I'll have no problem selling.

We are fully paid...we were on a 5-month payment plan and I needed every bit of that as we found buyers for tickets all the way through January (plus the extra for the unsold tickets I had to kick in).

UPDATE: 2010 Availability - Field Box Seats Remain for Target Field

Original Post 1/6/10 - Updated numbers 1/27/10:

Our group has 3 sets of seats in Target Field - all in blocks of 4.  See the original post for a description of all the seats, but right now, we only have availability in one section - Field Box.  If you get into the group this season, you will be able to get seats in the other sections in future seasons and it's possible that there will be some shifting around that opens up some this year.

Prices listed are season-ticket package prices, which in the Dome were $5-10 below face value.  You will save money by purchasing into the group.

Current availability (1/27/10): 55 Tickets     31 tickets
You can request them in groups of 2s or 4s for games.
We pick actual games in March - just need total number of tickets now.

99 Days

Thanks to the Twins Calendar from Fan Appreciation Weekend and the handy "Countdown to Target Field" on each day, we're 99 days away from Boston vs. Minnesota.

So, time to deal with 2 things:

Remaining Tickets:
There are still some open tickets: 6 Legends Club seats ($55) and 67 55 Field Box tickets ($29 each).  I'll probably put another ad up on Craigslist soon, but I'd rather go through the current group:
  • Do you want more tickets?
  • Do you have friends/family who would like to join?
  • Do you want to buy extras as an "investment"?
Contact me for details.

Game Selection:
See the posting below from 11/26 about getting together in person to pick games in March.  There's a poll over on the right side of this blog that lets you answer "Yes/No/Maybe" if you think you would participate.  I'm definitely leaning toward "Yes."  If there appears to be enough interest, I'll start working on setting up a date/location later in January.  We're probably looking at either the weekend of March 19-21 or March 26-28.  If you already have a preference, let me know (though I'll probably end up asking again).

Note: If we do it live and you aren't interested in attending or can't make it, that's not a problem - you can just submit a list of desired games to me and I'll handle it as we've always done it.  The benefit of attending would be to make adjustments on the fly when your original choices get filled by someone else first.

Current Ticket Availability - 2010

As of 11/13/09, Estimated ticket availability for 2010:
(See the post on Seat Locations for more details about each section)

Field Box: 65 tickets

Legends Club and Diamond Box- we may have a few tickets left in each section, depending on when you join.

These are now pretty solid numbers as everyone has confirmed or modified their estimates from spring and summer.  As the longer-term members finalize their choices, that may affect how many tickets are available in a given section for newer people.  See Seniority below.

If you're looking to join the group, what we do is have you commit to a number of tickets now (and how many in each price range if that's pertinent).  We then pick games in March and at that time you can break your requests into whether you want 2 or 4 tickets per game.  So just deal with total tickets right now.

Our first payment is going in on Nov 13.  Full payment is due in early December...but if you're just joining the group, something ASAP or even a partial payment is great.
