After Bryce Harper secured a thrilling comeback win at the 2018 Home Run Derby at his home ballpark, the Washington Nationals kicked off a too-good-to-be-true flash sale.
The Nationals sold tickets for five upcoming home games for $1 until Wednesday at 11:59 p.m., and supplies didn’t last long.
Emails notifying Nationals fans of the flash sale were sent out just before midnight Tuesday. This website now shows a message that says, “Tickets are sold out,” meaning fans plundered the supply of tickets in mere hours overnight.
The games that featured $1 tickets were on July 31 and August 1 against the New York Mets and August 2, 4 and 5 against the Cincinnati Reds.
