Fan spends $25,000 in hopes of Bonds ball - GoFuckYourself.com

LOL - who knows about this? Some guy got the entire outfield section at Dodger stadium for two games when the Giants are in town in hopes to make a few bucks - there are two good stories on this.

and I like this one - it shows how the Dodgers got pissed off at the guy:

Crazy people in the world...

nice looks like he is going to make some money off of the ticket sales as well and split the ball catch 50/50 with another fan, thats some shrewd business skills right there.

They were pissed because at first he was not going to fill the seats. He had 500 of his friends and family he was going to scatter around the entire section and that was going to be it. That would have looked bad for the Dodgers so they threatened to let people in there for free if he was not going to fill a certian % of the seats - thats why he started to sell the seats.

One of the articles also said the Dodgers would never let this happen again.

I am sure it also has something to do with profit for them. When they sell bulk seats like that they go for a discount - I think it said somewhere he got the seats for like $3 or so each. And when you consider if the stands would be full (they would be if it was not for this guy - end of season, the top two temas fighting for playoff spots) they would make BANK in food and souvineer (sp?) sales as well - plus selling the seats for face and not bulk discount.

I hope the Dodgers walk Bonds every single time he gets up... would be funny for the guy. Or better yet if they struck him out.

xclusive · 09-17-2004, 12:18 AM

Now that's good thinking I wonder if I should try that at Fenway sometime just because...Of course it would cost me 3 times as much damn red sox and their high prices...

foolio · 09-17-2004, 12:21 AM

here is the site the guy made to sell the seats --

http://www.lableachers.com/

it also has the EIGHT page legal document you must sign to get the tickets

Vitasoy · 09-17-2004, 12:39 AM

Smart investment if the ball actually lands there.

stocktrader23 · 09-17-2004, 12:44 AM

I'd love to see the lawsuit that guy could slap on the Dodgers for letting fans in free to seats he paid for. He should have let em.

pornguy · 09-17-2004, 01:01 AM
