New York Mets Luxury Seats Almost Gone
This is the final year of exsistance for New York Mets stadium Shea stadium and sales have already started for luxury boxes at Citi Field. As of last week 49 of the 50 boxes had been sold and there was a great deal of interest in the 50th.
When the Mets first began to build Citi Field they were banking on an increased demand for the luxury boxes because they ended up cutting out 12,000 seats from the 59,000 seat capasity of Shea Stadium. The Box Suite have lease terms of between 3 and 10 years and run at a cost of $250,000 to $500,000 per year. Even though they are cutting out 12,000 seats they are adding more premium seats and decreasing the amount of cheaper bleacher seats.
Make sure you get your New York Mets Tickets when the arrive at Citi Field in 2009.
