Boston Red Sox vs. Yankees Mlb tickets
 
Does anyone know how much Red Sox Vs. Yankee tickets will be once they go on sale?(In Fenway)I'm looking for the price of bleacher seats to begin with.

You've got to be extremely lucky--perhaps even hope for a miracle--to get those seats! Anyway, check the website and definitely make your attempt as soon as they go on sale. Be forewarned: you may be trying (either by phone or computer) for hours and still never get through. I know...from experience!

It is possible for me to get tickets (bleacher) for $140 from a friend of a friend. Is this a rip off??

That's one of the toughest tickets in the game, in the world. Doesn't seem like much of a friend though, selling tickets at more than 10 times the selling price.

Yes it is possible...that seems a little high for bleacher tickets...unless it's for 2.

Ace Ticket (reputable ticket broker) currently has Red Sox Yankees bleacher tickets on sale - asking price $185 each.

Sky is the limit for tickets for this rivalry - there are people who will pay almost any price, so bargains are non-existent.

About a year and a half ago I got tix for Red Sox vs. Yanks on Ebay and was very happy. Price was a bit better than similar seats from ticket brokers. However, since it is Ebay you need to check their feedback rating before bidding. Good luck. Going to a Red Sox/Yankee game at Yankee Stadium is a must do for any fan of either team.

Hell, I'll sell my tickets for $185 each....

You will pay a premium for those tickets, but $185 is too much.....although some sucker will pay it...

Be vigilant checking the website after the New Year (Late Jan and Feb) they drop tickets all the time during the season...also call the ticket office frequently....you'll start to know the workers by their voices....there are some nice ones who will help you find some out there...

I was not suggesting OP pay $185 - just giving info on what others were asking for tickets. Good luck with ticket office, etc - have been trying all sorts of strategies for years and one has to be very, very lucky.

Have had Yankees-Red Sox at Fenway tickets 3 times in recent years by buying 4-packs of tickets on-line when they go on sale and once had to sell due to family emergency. (While I would never admit to illegally scapling tickets), if I set price at $185 each I know of 4 people right now who would gladly pay that.

you can also check www.stubhub.com They are reputable and the tickets are coming directly from people who already have them instead of from a broker...I find prices are USUALLY better there. That being said, BOS vs NY....good luck!

For the last 2 or so years, the Sox have been selling tickets to games vs the Yankees through a lottery system. You register your email and if you are selected, you are notified by email that you are eligible to buy the tickets directly from the team. They also do this for opening day, patriots day, and for the green monster and right field roof seats (the new ones not roof box seats). If you want to try to get these tickets directly from the team, keep checking the ticket section of the Sox web site.
