This is ridiculous. The Giants AAA team plays in SLC next month

And I’m gonna have a bunch of family here for the 4th and my son’s birthday so I thought it would be a fun outing. The cost of tickets is ridiculous. I understand a fireworks night, or some other big promotion, but a Thursday night AAA game shouldn’t cost more than $5 to get in. You can find cheaper tickets for BYU Football games.

An NFL practice squad is still much better than college football talent-wise

No, because an NFL team can't yank a college player mid-season.

I agree about their path, etc. Just don't expect me to pay for it along the way.

Yes. I'm so cheap I'd rather go to an MLB game.

Tickets behind home plate to a AAA game are like $12, most games you can get in

You get what you pay for. IMO, they're not even worth that.

6/11/21 11:21pm

To be fair, in SLC, the cheapest ticket is $13. And to sit behind the plate is

When they make it, they'll get my attention. Until then, don't bother me.
