PHILADELPHIA (CBS) — Coming off record-low attendance for last Friday night’s game, the Phillies are now offering half-price tickets on a discount web site.
It’s a far cry from the 257 consecutive sellouts the Phillies had between 2009 and 2012. Now, for the first time ever, the Phillies are selling tickets on Groupon.
Half-price tickets in the outfield and upper deck are being offered for as little as $8.50 each, for three games: May 8th, 13th, and 16th.
“Every year in ticketing is different,” admits the Phillies’ vice president for ticket sales, John Weber.
