Baseball season is finally underway and of course, you weren’t able to snag tickets to any of the Chicago White Sox games that you wanted. While it seems like all hope is lost, you’ll find that getting Chicago White Sox tickets is a lot easier than you thought. Sometimes all it takes is a little creativity and patience to get the Chicago White Sox tickets that you are looking for.
Craiglist or Freecycle – Yes, you can find tickets on Craiglist. Often times you will find season ticket holders trying to get rid of tickets to games that they just can’t make it to. Beware of the listings that will only direct you to ticket broker sites. Anything that you see $1 by for ticket price will surely lead you to a link to the broker’s website. Just pass over those sites completely. Another great thing about Craigslist is that season ticket holders will often give a parking pass away with the sale of their tickets as well, which is a double bonus for you.
As far as Freecycle goes, it can be a hit or miss situation. I know personally on my local freecycle group, we have had several offers for Chicago White Sox game tickets. These are often snagged up fast. Often people get tickets and it is within a day of the game and they really have no way of selling them so they just give them away to anyone who can take them and actually go to the Chicago White Sox game.
U.S. Cellular Field – If you are in the area and decide that it would be a great time to go to a Chicago White Sox ballgame, then stop by the box office and see what they can do for you. Chances are that you might be able to score some great tickets at a reasonable price. However, if the Chicago White Sox happen to be playing a big name team, such as the Chicago Cubs, you’re probably not going to be able to purchase any tickets. The best chances of picking up game day tickets is when the Chicago White Sox are playing lesser known teams that don’t quite carry the punch or popularity as other teams do.
Your Local / State Paper – Again, there are season ticket holders who are trying to get rid of tickets for games that they just cannot get to because of other commitments. Often times they will place an ad in the paper stating the amount of Chicago White Sox tickets that they have and the price for the tickets. Usually you can snag these Chicago White Sox tickets at a great price. The only catch is that you might have to drive a little bit to pick the tickets up. If that is no problem for you, then you might be on your way to getting the Chicago White Sox tickets that you have been waiting for.
StubHub – This is an excellent website that allows Chicago White Sox fans and ticket holders to buy and sell their Chicago White Sox tickets. With a great interactive feature, StubHub has the ability to let you mouse over the tickets and it will show you exactly where the seat are located. This is perfect when you are trying to find that perfect spot to watch the Chicago White Sox game from. The prices are usually very reasonable and are within the amount which you would pay for the tickets normally.
Word of Mouth – If you’re still having trouble finding Chicago White Sox tickets, then you’re going to want to ask around at work. Usually there is someone who knows somebody and they just happen to be a season ticket holder. This might be your chance to get acquainted with a season ticket holder who may be able to get you Chicago White Sox tickets at an excellent price.
Hopefully you are going to be able to get your hands on some Chicago White Sox tickets. Just remember to be careful and please avoid ticket scalping. It is illegal and it can get you into a little bit of trouble. Plus, you can never guarantee the authenticity of the tickets that you’re buying,
