An Opening Day Colorado Rockies Ripoff



The major league baseball season starts in just 10 days, but the big event will be Opening Day.  Since Opening Day has become such a popular event here in Denver, the Colorado Rockies have decided to raise the price of the seats to unconscionable levels.  The cheapest seat is now $110, and is in the Rockpile, the worst seat in the house.  Watching a game from there is like watching it from another time zone.  Any other game, the seat would cost you $5.00, but in the spirit of true greed, the Rockies have raised it by 2200%. What a crock.  And by the way, the photograph above was taken on an Opening Day when the price of a ticket was reasonable. Photo-shopped into it (from left to right) are former Rockies great Eric Young and current Rockies players Carlos Gonzales and Charlie Blackmon, taken during a salute to the fans on the last day of that season. I also want to add that to attend the Chicago Cubs Opening Day it would cost you $64.00, still pricey but doable, and to attend the Chicago Whate Sox Opening Day, you can buy an upper deck seat behind home plate for $46.  God bless those Chicago White Sox.  Oh to be back in Chicago.
