I’m going down to NYC in May and thought that I could see a game at Yankee Stadium. Went online and found that I couldn’t even get a single for any of the three games that weekend. Tried a few other dates this spring: same result.

Now, I know it’s the Last Year and all that, but are all the tickets gone?

Do I have any options? Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Try the [NYYFans.com](http://NYYFans.com) forums, they have a ticket forum where you can almost always find last minute tickets, and I think they have to be sold at face value there, so they aren’t broker tickets at triple the price. It’s also a great place to ask this question too. 🙂

Stubhub is also useful for finding tickets, and you can pick them up at Yankee Stadium.

Yes, all weekend games are sold out (we just did a thread on this) and other tickets are getting hard to find from the official site. But you can buy tickets to any game online at [StubHub.com](http://StubHub.com) or other legit secondary market websites.

Thanks for those suggestions, I’ll give 'em a try!
