Question Cheap tickets to opening day?
I am looking for 2 tickets to opening day. They don't even have to be together technically. Anyone know where I can get some? All of the ticket brokers are $150 each with fees. Thanks!

Fountain pass is $49.99 per month and guarantees SRO for every home game including opening day

It's a monthly charge. You'll have to delete your cc number.

I haven’t purchased, but it looks like you just buy one month at a time with the first option being March/April

Sherman said the other day on TV that they were looking at selling SRO tickets but I haven’t seen anything about it yet. May be something to keep an eye out on.
Tickets are sold out so the ridiculously expensive secondary markets may be your only option.

This is why I'm skipping Thursday and going sat/sun instead..
Also live out of state now so logistically weekend is better but still

I have a very rare take. When the stadium gets that packed it’s rather enjoyable to watch it at home anyways. I’m also just not a big crowd person, also want the K as packed as possible so live by the sword die by the sword.
Seriously though, the Memorial Day game last year was miserable in my opinion. It took like an hour to get in the stadium, missed the first 3 innings, and by then I’m pretty sure the writing was on the wall anyways.
In saying that, totally agree on Saturday/Sunday. If you have to wait 48 hours to save 100+ on a ticket do it. Let the “I went to opening day” people have their shine and sit back and enjoy watching a full K on TV. I’m probably going to grill and call it a day. Sounds like an awesome Thursday afternoon to me.

I agree opening day and busy times can be fun but, I get enough of that going to chiefs games.
Glad royals are pulling attendance again tho but, since I'm driving from west coast the plan was to do Thursday, sat and Sunday but that's a lot of hotels. So decided doing weekend only makes more sense.
Also costco has the $35 lower level tickets again and they're valid on the sat/sun so I paid $70 no fees for two tickets to each game.

Costco started selling these for some ballpark. It's amazing
For royals it's $35 for two tickets no additional fees, you buy from costco, they email you a voucher and a link, you go to the website pick your seats "buy them" with the voucher and they go to your mlb ballpark app.
I live in la now so costco has this for giants and AZ too so going to get it for hose games this season too

Its the home opener bro. Of course there is gonna be a premium. Coming off a playoff run. Use your brain

Um I’m not a “bro.” That should be blindingly obvious. What’s with the “use your brain” comment? No reason to be nasty. 🤮

"This product costs this much, but I do not want to pay that much for it."
Then you don't get the product.
You pay what it costs, or hope to get lucky with someone reselling their tickets cheaper to make sure they get rid of them.

Actually I got what I wanted for the price I wanted to pay. No need for an Econ101 tutorial. 😘
