The first game played at Yankee Stadium could cost you as little as 25 cents if you don’t mind sitting in the bleachers; and only $1.10 if you go for upper deck seats. No you’re not reading this wrong, the Yankees are turning back the clock to 1923 to celebrate the grand opening of their “New” Yankee Stadium across the street. What’s the catch you may ask? Well the tickets are for the Yankees exhibition games against the Chicago Cubs on April 3rd and 4th.
In addition to the discounted bleacher and nose bleed seats, the Yanks are only charging between $45–50 for field level, $20-45 for main level and $20-45 for terrace level. And best of all, season ticket holders will get in free with partial season ticket holders having access to an exclusive pre-sale. I am sure there are some Jets and Giants season ticket holders that were wishing exhibition games were free.
So how does this compare to a normal game at Yankee Stadium? Those $50 field level seats would go for $2,500 if you were to buy tickets for the Yankees season opener against the Indians two weeks later. A bargain indeed!
