The Giants announced the other day that all season tickets for 2015 have been sold. Translated this means that Stub Hub will be very busy again this year. Two years ago I bought game tickets through Stub Hub only to discover a ticket agency in Boulder, CO handled my purchase. Hundreds of agencies and individuals buy tickets in advance to sell through Stub Hub which has been very profitable. Many wonder how the Giants can continually announce consecutive sell outs when there have been occasional games that there are sections of empty seats. The Giants sold the tickets for those games but it was the secondary market that failed.
What will happen in 2015? The Giants spring training has been a disaster so far this year but there is still a few weeks to get things turned around. It is not the same as getting off to a slow start since this is the type of team some had predicted for 2015. Will those holding tickets to sell through Stub Hub take a bath this year?
St Patrick's Day News - Arizona 10 Giants 0. Somebody forgot to turn off the water. Giants record for the spring is now 4-12-1. One reason is the top three in the batting order - Aoki .148 - Panik .103 - Posey .176. Day off tomorrow.
