Busch Stadium question?

I have a question for anyone that knows alot about the seating in Busch Stadium. I think I got ripped off on my tickets I bought through stubhub, I am not sure though because I have never been there before. I bought two tickets for a game that said they were in section 139 in row 1, but then when I printed the tickets they said "section 139 C" So now I am thinking that the C at the end now means that it will be in the front row of the third section?? ? I thought I was going to be in row 1, like it said. Can anyone help me figure this one out?
Thank you for any information,
KB

The easiest way I can think of to solve this riddle is to either call the St. Louis Cardinals ticket office or check seating charts on their website:

I've used StubHub successfully many times for baseball tickets -- hope this is an easy question to solve. Good luck.

Here's the link to Busch Stadium seating

The only way the tickets were really going to be in the front row is if they said they were Dugout box seats. Otherwise they are field box seats. I can't figure out what the C on your tickets means either. I have a friend who sells her extra Cards tickets on Stubhub and has been very happy as a seller.

The "contact us" page on Cardinals website:

Call and ask.

Based on other stadiums, Row C is the front row in some sections where the first 2 rows stop (ie behind the dugout, the first row may be Row C.

But looking at the seating chart for Busch Stadium, there are 3 levels to section 139 that are all field level and C is probably the 3rd level.

personally, I would rather the 3rd level as I like to be little higher than field level. Just hopefully no walkway in front of you.

I think the C stands for covered. I got similar tickets from stubhub last year.

Maybe you could call the box office and ask them.

The good thing about stubhub is that if you feel the seller deliberately misrepresented the location of the tickets they will refund your money minus shipping.

But the best thing is to check with the stadium for exact location. As Liz5959 said the only way you're going to get real front row tickets is to get the dugout box seats or Cardinal Club tickets - those will cost you even if you get them at face value.
