Except that it is now better for those of us who don't have kids. You know we do exist.

Yeah and now there are $15 and $30 options also. Just because someone isn't interested in those options doesn't mean no one is.

I understand that people without kids do exist, but the Sox are billing these days as Family Sundays. Generally, a family means parent(s) with children.

I don't disagree that kids' days in the past were pretty good deals as well. Your case is that it cost you $45 in 2013 vs. $42 last year for 1 adult and 2 kids. Fair enough. Did you drive? Because now you are saving $15 in parking, so your net total is $12 savings. Even if you didn't drive and you are now paying $3 more than last year's kids days- you have the opportunity to have this value EVERY SUNDAY vs. the 5 kids' days last year. Last year on the 8 other Sundays, your 3 lower deck tickets were costing you $120, not $42. I often come from out of town on Sunday to go to games. Myself, my wife, my dad, and my 2 kids. Last year, to sit in the lower deck, that was $40 x 3 for adult tickets, $1 x 2 for kids tickets, and $25 parking = $147 (on the Kids' Days- for a regular Sunday game it would be $225.) This year: $15 x 5 for tickets + $10 parking= $85. That's a difference of $140 off a regular Sunday and $62 off a kids Sunday! If I wanted to go cheap and sit in the upper deck corners, I can get a family of 5 into the game + parking for $35 total. Plus autographs and the kids get to run the bases. That is a phenomenal value that is as good as there is anywhere in Major League Baseball. The White Sox are doing this right, and they deserve nothing but compliments for the revamping of their pricing model. Last edited by lpneck; 11-16-2012 at 12:47 PM. |

Brooks just said on "White Sox Weekly" that announcers will be included in the autograph sessions. Can't wait for Stone to jag kids and send them along their way with a "Well, you're just going to sell it."

Stone will personalize everything he signs even a baseball card. Thay way it will only be worth $1 instead of $2. |

I don't collect autographs but if I did and my intention wasn't to sell it, I would think something personalized is better than just a signature. The people pissed Stone personalized everything must be trying to make money.

I would agree on most things, but if he's signing a baseball card, I don't think you'd want the signature and personalized message to take up 90% of the face of the card.

I understand getting the sponsor $$ but why do they NEED a sponsor for it? All it is is roping off the warning track and having the players walk around. |

Try again. I'm not talking about him personalizing. I'm talking about him being uncooperative, signing his name largely over his face and just generally being a pompous jerk. Nobody is shelling out serious money to attend Soxfest for a weekend to make money from a Stone autograph. Even if you wanted to, his autograph isn't really worth anything.

I just bought a 14-game plan with 12 Sunday games, Opening Day and the Monday Cubs game. Great deal.
