However, it looks like these are games are slow-selling seats from the other packs.  It&#8217;s only available for baseline box, and field box seats.  This means you&#8217;re going to have to spend at least $400 a ticket, for five games, to buy this package.  Chances are if you can afford this, you&#8217;ve already spent the money on a package for the season.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;d love to do this, but at $75 a ticket++, I just can&#8217;t afford it.  You can add any other four games from April and May, which could be two Phillies games if you so choose.  You&#8217;d probably spend almost this much money buying similar seats on stubhub for just Opening Day.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>However, it does mean that there are unsold tickets to Opening Day.  If this package doesn&#8217;t finish them off, they&#8217;ll have to put these tickets out there somewhere. There is probably an outside chance that we can get lucky and get these tickets through some sort of second-chance lottery, or just dumb luck.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mets 5-game Opener Pack<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[575,19,15,20],"tags":[2966,2964,644,331,2969],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.ceetar.com\/optimisticmetsfan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/256"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.ceetar.com\/optimisticmetsfan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.ceetar.com\/optimisticmetsfan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.ceetar.com\/optimisticmetsfan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.ceetar.com\/optimisticmetsfan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=256"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"http:\/\/www.ceetar.com\/optimisticmetsfan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/256\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":258,"href":"http:\/\/www.ceetar.com\/optimisticmetsfan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/256\/revisions\/258"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.ceetar.com\/optimisticmetsfan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=256"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.ceetar.com\/optimisticmetsfan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=256"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.ceetar.com\/optimisticmetsfan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=256"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
