At 11:45 EST they had four in DIA G behind home plate and Sect. 218 all at the $140 price level. I thought the 218 would be the $100 level unless it's in a club box, but still, they're all the way across the stadium.

I just checked, they had seats in the Hall of Fame sections, 200 level for $126 each. That is pretty steep for the location. Maybe they were corporate seats that were turned back.

Thanks for the post. My brother is moving back to the area and was hoping to get a ticket. Last night I scored a single in the DIA section for Thursady night for him.

At this moment I am still pulling up at least singles for both Thursday and Saturday. All are in the mid-price range.

However, I still think the prices are ridiculous for the seat locations in the ballpark venues. The ticket was $143.50 after service charges and looking at the Phillies own seat chart it is 401' from home plate to centerfield wall. DIA is behind home plate and the stage is somewhere in front of the wall so you are somewhere in the 400' range away for $143.50 . On the flipside I can only imagine that it is still cheaper than what he would pay any scalper.

Even though I live in Philly, I am still glad I skiped both concerts here and got tickets to Toronto on the lawn (5 for $205 USD).

Plowin' straight ahead come what may.
