To say Phillies fans are excited about signing Bryce Harper is an understatement. Social media exploded Thursday afternoon once news broke that Harper agreed to a 13-year, $330 million deal with the team. The team has officially become the talk of the town with the championship window swinging wide open.
Fans are anxious to get tickets to see the new-look Phillies, and it has shown in tickets prices. Opening Day tickets on Vivid Seats, FanSided’s official ticket partner, doubled in price in just under an hour, going from $48 at 2:45 PM EST to $87 at 4:00 PM EST.
