Yes. The licensing was renewed and the rangers are the first metro team to have an Aggie night. We're doing one for the mavs soon but it's not 'official'.

Will there be 10 game plans with Opening Day included this year?
Negative. Smallest ticket plan will be a 20 game plan.

With 9,000 less seats and the increased demand in full and half season plans, we are not projecting that we'll have the inventory for 10 game plans
Will single game tickets still be " easy to get"?

How much more expensive, compared to the globe, will it be to sit in the lower first deck? As in 1st and 3rd base line.

It will be much like the Astros. Tickets will be easy to get, but from the Rangers they are going to be dynamically priced and the face value low between the bases is a "corporate" pricing structure, so the common folk's best bet for those games will be the secondary market anyways.

I'm guessing kind of like mavs tickets where you pay a value 1.5x higher than face value on the ticket.

Thanks for the update. Hope the Stars get back in the loop as well, I get lots of questions on where did I get my Stars hat with A&M on it.

Next season. Stars and mavs started their seasons before the licensing agreement.

35% of the Rangers posters on here don't like stats about baseball.

100% of the Rangers posters on here like AccidentProne.

Grape and I will disagree 95% of the time, about player productivity and 50% of the time it will be about Odor.


So accurate

Ross Stripling included in the Joc Pederson deal from LA to LA. Not going to enjoy rooting against him.

So I've been to 23 straight Opening Days (est. 1997). Always managed a ticket somehow with my same high school buddy. Some years that has been mini-plans, some years secondary market. In the early years, we camped out at TBIA the night before tickets went on sale (even made the front page of The Dallas Morning News once doing so).

Demand has changed a lot since 1997, and now the stadium is smaller. I'm not afraid that I won't make it, but my pragmatic side has me questioning how much this is gonna set me back. (Flights to town are free with points.)

So what say ye, Rangers board? How much coin must I drop?

$185 per ticket. Just saying that because the cheapest ticket on StubHub is $188.

I wanted to go to Opening Day this year (I've never been on Opening Day) but can't justify the prices. Especially if I was going to spring my kid from school to go.

I'm going to wait to go to my first game when the temperature is in the upper 90s and sunny/daytime.
Fully appreciate it.

The Pederson/Stripling trade to the Angels fell through.

Free flights and $200/ticket? You're all in for about $500-700 after hotel depending on how long you stay.

I'm not letting $500 stop a streak like that if it were me.

It's a valid point, especially considering I can stay with my folks. But it's almost as if I feel my connection to the team fraying. Maybe it's the new stadium or me just hitting middle age or getting plenty of baseball in Colorado.

Talk me off the ledge.

I guess it comes down to what else you would do with that money that might be a higher priority for you. I can totally understand how watching baseball in CO would have way more appeal than baseball on fake grass in a convertible stadium. I'm going to give the new place a few games before I make up my mind, but I'm not very excited about it. Coors Field is one of my favorite ballparks.

Just my $.02, YMMV.

The cost matters, sure, but I agree you don't break a 23-year streak for a couple hundred bucks. What might make me break it, however, is the time cost of being away.
