These team sites don't even have a Will Call option anymore, am I right?

Suddenly this nonsense makes sense:

Only MLB would charge you $2.50 for making a last minute decision to spend your money with them.

I bought some tix off Stubhub.com last week and the site only charges a 10% surcharge plus shipping. Of course, I have no idea what the mark-up on the ticket was over face value, but it all seemed a lot more reasonable than what ticket master charges. I ended up getting 4 outfield bleacher seats for 21 May Red Sox-Yankees at Yankee Stadium for about $140.

Oh yeah, did I mention I'm going to NY next month and I'm going to see Red Sox-Yankees at Yankee Stadium?

Waoh! I gots 3 tickets from ticketmaster for the bleachers in AUGUST and was only able to get one seat in front of the other (as opposed to them being next to eachother in a row)! Only 50 bucks tho.

So apparently no one buys on team sites...

You can't with the Yanks, it just sends you to ticketmaster, iirc.
I used the team site for the J's opener tho and I think I'm going to have to for the mets and phils.

Hey Morbs, for what it's worth, the Yankees offer will call tickets when you buy off their site.

So maybe it's handled on a team-by-team basis?
