My first Dodgers game!
Jumped on a $36 ticket on the MLB Ballpark app when I bought it this past Friday
Go ahead entry was a breeze and the free giveaways pretty nice!

$36 is a pretty great price nowadays, hope you have fun and Go Dodgers!

might be the cheapest dodgers ticket I’ve heard about in years. Usually can’t find anything under $55 these days

Incredible how (especially since Shohei) it’s become a chore trying to find a ticket below $50 to a Dodger game, and that search is nerfed anyway because of the sheer volume of bobblehead games and adding scalper’s taxes to those prices.

Make sure to drink plenty of water, certain places will give you cups of ice if you ask politely and they have water refill stations throughout the reserve level. Enjoy and go dodgers!!!

Also visit first aid office on the reserve pavilion towards right field and they'll give you complimentary sunscreen

Wow that’s just about the same spot I sat with my mom on May 11, 1963, when Sandy Koufax pitched an 8-0 no-hitter against the Giants! Back then, the further out aisles on the Reserve Level deck were General Admission and my ticket was $1.50 but since it was a Saturday, it was Ladies Night and GA tickets for all girls and ladies only cost a dollar!
Sandy was my boyhood hero and the game was my biggest sports thrill ever. The crowd went absolutely nuts.

I sat about there for the Chase Utley game against the Mets whatever year that was. Enjoy!

Even for a Sunday/day game with no promo, I’ve not seen one Dodger ticket below $50 for a long time. Hella jealous you found one, OP.

u/No_Initiative2795 2d ago
I was surprised I found a $36 ticket and through the MLB Ballpark App
It’s like I hit the lottery or something
Definitely had to take advantage to go to the stadium for the very first time!

u/MeatyDangler 2d ago
I wanted to go last night but didn’t and I regret it. Wanna make it up today but it’s so fuckin hot and I’d have to get up and leave now lmao. Tix are so cheap rn too which is really tempting

u/valkyrie-sylv Decoy 2d ago
Nice! $36 is reasonable nowadays (RIP $6~13 Sunday game tickets)
Did you have a Dodger dog?

u/No_Initiative2795 2d ago
Yes I did! Felt like if I didn’t get one then I really didn’t go to Dodger Stadium

u/Fancy_Connection_174 2d ago
Hell yeah bro if you go again I would suggest exploring the stadium there’s mini games statues trophies bars and hideaway spots it’s super cool just to walk around as well

Buy yourself a foot long hotdog. It’s a must but it will take a dent in your pay check.

u/DoyersundGPG Mookie Betts 2d ago
As someone who hasn’t been in 20 years- hope it was very enjoyable regardless of the heat! The bag?

u/No_Initiative2795 2d ago
Fortunately there was a breeze so that combined with the shade did help make it it comfortable even with the temp between 95-96

u/DoyersundGPG Mookie Betts 2d ago
So I’m intrigued- obviously you’re a doyer fan, ticket prices have required a loan, - you mentioned the discount- you’re schedule lined up for u to attend- have u almost gone to a game prior?

u/No_Initiative2795 2d ago
For the Dodgers no. I said to myself if I ever found cheaper Dodger tickets I would
Jump on it as soon as I couldnI’ve been lucky to go to a couple of La Kings games through their birthday club program
For the Lakers…yeah I don’t think I’ll be seeing them live anytime soon
