Last week my other half and I decided that we might want to take in a ball game. After doing the math, because we live a couple of hours away from the park it really started to add up. I ran across an article at CNN that gave out some tips to enjoy a major league baseball game and not break your wallet at the same time.
Like everyone else major league baseball teams are feeling the crunch of high fuel costs and giving away some pretty good deals right now. "To ease the pain of record high fuel prices, for example, the San Francisco Giants are giving $25 gas cards to anyone who buys four tickets for $75. In Minnesota, the Twins are discounting the weekly national average price for a gallon of gas off certain tickets."
Here are some more tips:
1. See if you can bring your own food, a lot of clubs are allowing it or eat before you go and try not to be at the food stands every inning.
2. If driving try to find free curbside parking, even if you have to walk a few extra blocks. Parking near the stadium is a premium.
3. Get online and research your teams website and look for deals on tickets or $2 hot dog day, or family zone specials. Plan your day out, especially if you are bringing kids.
