    Ark Series Sold Out

    I'm not sure what that means as far as numbers, but the ticket office says the series is sold out. The general admission tickets that went on sale online at 8 this morning were sold out by 8:04. Not sure how many were sold.

    I don't think they were able to sell very many. I think the folks who had first crack at them yesterday morning bought up almost all of them. I think I saw where there were only going to be a few hundred remaining for sell this morning. Although I doubt it, I wonder if we'd put more on sale tomorrow morning. Need as many people as we can get in the ballpark this weekend. I'd expect as of right now we'll probably have between 6-8K there this weekend. A normal weekend we'd probably have between 13-14K for a series of this magnitude.

    I seriously doubt we have 10K. I'd look for it to be closer to 8K. Grandstand will be packed. It's the GA and student tickets that always inflate our numbers. Personally I don't see how the grandstand can be at 100% and the GA can't be wide open. I mean if it was COVID related I don't think your chances are greater in the GA than they are in the grandstand. I really don't know what we're trying to accomplish on this one. I mean the CoronaBros aren't going to be any more pissed off at 8K than they'd be at 13K.

    I could definitely see Saturday being a wash. Might could get in two 7 inning games on Sunday depending on when the weather gets out Sunday.

    The forecasts I've seen have it out of here by noon on Sunday. But I'm not SVD so I'm definitely the wrong one to ask that.

    Good deal. I just looked at my built in weather app on iPhone. Thanks

    How do you know 10k tickets weren't sold? Not saying they were, just wondering where you got that info bc I haven't heard a hard number. I don't get why it's some big secret.

    Just by doing the math. 4400 grandstand seats were sold. Then add premium seats. 8 per rig in outfield. Double size rig get 16. Which there are only a handful of those. Then the student tickets they were offering, 300. Add on 2000 additional that they just put out, some went to rigs, the rest just GA/SRO. None of that gets you to 10k

    Where would you put the additional chairbacks? I mean I know you could take out the berms and add some there and deck over that, but I can't imagine that gets you more than 6K of chairbacks. Demand is always going to outpace supply with our baseball team as long as they're good.

    So the additional general admission tickets sold this week were only 2,000? That's what I was trying to figure out.
