I am thinking about buying one of the mini plans for two tickets (27 games). It guarantees seats for either the Red Sox or Yankees.
I was thinking of getting the Terrace Deck seats (pretty decent, small seating area) or the Club II seats. Anyone interested? -------------------- "There is a level of cowardice lower than that of the conformist: that of the fashionable non-conformist." |

I got a bud who works in the Astros GM's office and he gets 6 free best available tickets per home series. He's in a wheelchair too so we get insanely awesome wheelchair seats (usually right below the announcers booth on the bottom level). Also have a bud I work with who's parents are friggin rich, and are best friends with some mega rich CEO of some oil company around here, who get us tix all the time too (got on TV a couple times sitting in the first row next to the dugout, when the 1st baseman came over for foul balls). So I went to ~15 games this past season. Great idea but needless to say I got my tix covered

Oh and one thing to note, good call on club II. I did sit nosebleed once this season w/my Dad, and wow it sucks. Admittedly I'm a huge guy, but wow the seats were disgutingly small up there.

Well they are set up with really nice fold down chairs for the people who come with the handicapped (my friend is in a wheelchair himself), so you can kinda configure it however you want. Lots of room though and nobody in front or behind you so its really nice

Do you have a list of the teams they'd be playing?
I'd love to see the Red Sox. One of my friends plays for the Braves so I'd like to see them. The Marlins, of course. I don't really want to see the Yankees because I'd get kicked out before the game started for harassing them. Especially Joba Chamberlain. If I ever meet that turd again he's gonna end up filing a restraining order against me. Oh, and my roommate is a HUGE Astros fan, so he might be down as well --------------------   |

I'd rather go to a museum than an Astros game. That Holocaust museum is something else.
