Dugout Section question.

[BigFan007]

What row is directly behind the dugouts. Does it start at row 1 or is it even with the other section rows? Thanks.

What row is directly behind the dugouts. Does it start at row 1 or is it even with the other section rows? Thanks.

Here is a break down of actual rows.....

Section 136 thru section 140 ...Row "1" is actually Row "4" (dugout/camerawell takes rows 1/3)
Same for Section 124/120....row 4 is actually row 1 from field

Sections 125 to 135..NON DIAMOND CLUB Seats start row9
Seats A thru H or 1 thru 8 cost 200+++++++++ $$$$$ per seats (sections 25,27,33,35)
Roow 8 is the closest seat the field behind Diamond club (these are $200+)
All sections
section 119 thru section 114 AND sections 141 thru section 148 ARE CHARTER SEATS...THEY MUST PAy 10,000....JUST TO GET THE TICKETS!!!!!!

Sor 119 to 110 and section 142 to 149...Row 1 is actual row 1....row 4 is Real row 1 for 124-120 AND 136-141

If you have to ask what row 1 "really is"
You can not afford tickets in the 1st 20 rows vs good teams and weekend games,

Outfield

Slow your roll there Gar. I didn't know the answer to that question off hand. Does that mean I'm not a big fan? Take it down a notch.

Did you know you can edit your posts? No need to throw 2-10 posts for every response. If you think of something else you can just "edit post".

To Bigfan007- Pay no attention! Welcome to the forum, we're cool- I assure you! Stick around and keep posting, the more the merrier!

I must have hit Enter before I completed the sentence......

It was suppose to say......
"FYI..."Bigfan007" You are NOT A BIG FAN .....You are a Secret Agent"

Suppose to be a James Bond joke....but with or without the punchline.... its just bad.

If I was gonna rip on the guy.... I wouldnt have tried to answer his question thoroughly.

It's all good, I doubt any offense was taken :). Thanks for answering the question. I want to sit in those seats sooo bad and hear the dugout talk. Not sure where to find those tickets, craigslist?

[E_Martinez11]

Well, one of the things I do......

Anytime you see ANYONE posting on Craiglists with the "Super awesome seat locations"........
Even if you are NOT interested in going to the Game they are selling.....

Email them and ask "Are you the Season ticket holder of these seats? and are you selling other games later in the year?"

If the Answer is yes...Save that persons email and contact info....

And if you know a game you want in the future (my experience has been it needs to be at least 2+ weeks in advance as a minimum...and usually if you email them in Feb/March about dates...you have a 90% better chance assertaining the tickets).....
a Simple email saying "Hey, I bought a pair of tickets from you a while ago....I was wondering if you have tickets forsale to this game?"
NOTE: emailing people in the week before any game, will usually get you a NO, and is kinda annoying to those people. (if they have tickets for sale the week of the game, they will have an ad on Craiglists/ebay/other already...so look for classified ads first)

Since I dont want to pass around peoples personal contact info....

Example
http://seattle.craigslist.org/see/tix/2388632256.html

8 rows up from the Dugout.... corner of the dugout....
They are listing more than one game...good chance they are season ticket holder...
Selling for $42.50 per ticket...which is a STEAL OF A DEAL...Face value + Paypal and Mailing fees)
Obvious they are season ticket holder.....
email them and ask for other games (to get their email address when they respond)
FYI I dont know this person and have never purchased from them.....


Another trick to afford tickets that are "out of your price range"...... (Or if ya want to get more for your money)

post a CL ad, asking if someone wants to buy a bobblehead or other giveaway item......
they pay you for the bobblehead and shipping, which allows you to pay for a higher priced/better seat for a game.
I mean..find a charter seat person selling at Face value for a Bobblehead game...you can almost sit with a couple rows of the field for free.

And if you find someone who wants all the bobbleheads every year....
Even if ya hate bobbleheads..... Going to 4 to 6 games a year for free is the reason I like bobblehead nights

Yeah, that certainly does come off a little bit different :)
Didn't mean to jump down your throat there, just took it the way it was posted and didn't want to see anyone scared off.

For anyone who is reading this thread, wanting "Safeco seating tips"
Just click on the section, and there will be a pic, its not full size, but it will give ya a realistic view (NOTE: rows will move you closer or further from the field...on average...lower level seats are row 25...and row 13 upper level)
http://www.seatdata.com/html/mlb_mariners/pick_section_mlb_mariners.htm
http://seattle.mariners.mlb.com/sea/ticketing/seating_pricing.jsp

The Mariners charge extra for the following
Weekend Summer Games (June/July/August) they charge $2 more Each ticket (all sections)
Prime games (Phillies, Yankees, Redsox) They Charge $5 more each ticket (all sections)
So if Budget is important....remember $7 extra for ALL seats (CF Bleachers for Boston are $14 instead of $7).....

Wear a Coat and goto April, May and September games or all weekday games to save $$$ :-)
