The Philadelphia Phillies have sold 100,000 tickets in less than 24 hours since Bryce Harper agreed to a 13-year, $330 million contract with the team, senior vice president of ticket operations John Weber told the 94WIP Morning Show on Friday.
According to Weber, ticket sales in the right field area were especially high in anticipation of Harper's debut with the team.
"I'm happy, I'm very, very happy," Weber said. "All the credit in the world goes to our baseball operation people to put us in this position and it's really exciting."
Ticker prices before Harper's signing were selling for about $80.
