As I said Sox in 5.

Just shows how bad Redsox & Yankee pitching was. Even if the Yankees made it they would have had trouble.

I see a very boring low scoring world series brewing.

Whatever. We won!
That's also a tribute to just how dominating the Sox pitching was...

This is rediculous!

After hearing rumors about outrageous ticket prices for the World Series opener in Chicago, I though I'd check it out myself. So I just entered "white sox tickets" into my browser and picked the first likely ticket broker.

Now these were good seats, mind you...but two tickets at $8,475 EACH strikes me as a tad on the high side!

You'd have to have a head full of banana oil to pay that much just to see a baseball game.

they come in twos and fours, so maybe you guys want to get a little AZ white sox fan group. this is a big if, though, but so were the ALCS tickets (that never could have been used).

i remember in 2003, when me, a friend (stangg172005), and his cousin were purchasing WS tickets. glad we decided to "wait it out until we decided on who would be the 4th person"

No kidding! Mind you, Pujols sure took his merry time admiring his shot, didn't he?



As long as the Astros and Cardinals go the distance, I'm happy!

White Sox Tix....

Will go from 125 -185 online and on the phone (if you can get through which will be next to impossible)

866-Sox-game or
312-559-1212
www.whitesox.com

NO TIX Sold at the "Cell"

See a Private Broker...forget about it unless you're willing to pay up to $4,000.00
