Maybe lost in the announcement of President Barack Obama throwing out the first pitch on Opening Day at Nationals Park is that Our Washington Nationals also officially announced today that $5 seats in Sections 401 & 402 will be made available for the April 5th first game versus The Philadelphia Phillies. The Main Box Office on N Street, SE is the ONLY LOCATION to purchase those tickets beginning at 10AM next Monday morning. And you must enter the stadium right away--one ticket per person.
Individual Game Tickets are now sold out for Opening Day. Obviously, if you are interested in taking advantage of this option--you better arrive early on April 5th at the ballpark.

Early on April 5th or on April 4th?
ReplyDeleteHeh.
Anyway, thanks for the heads up! I waited too long to get tickets and am seriously considering doing this. I wonder if I'd be sold a ticket if I was wearing my Schmidt t-shirt. (I've heard that the Caps refuse to sell tickets to fans of other teams, dunno about the Nats.)
Opening Day is April 5th.
ReplyDeleteSorry, I was joking about camping out for 24 hours.
ReplyDeleteAny guess as to how early you need to be there to get a ticket? I would love to go for $5 and I wouldn't mind getting there early, but it would be really annoying to get down there early and still not get in.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't venture a guess on how early one should show to get in line to purchase a $5 seat. But it's safe to say the number of seats are limited to just a few hundred.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I have no idea. To get into the Supreme Court the key is to get there before the first metro train does, and since I live within walking distance of the park I might do the same for this.
ReplyDeleteThe Washington Post reports that there are "nearly 400" tickets. So not many at all.
