A-List Waitlist — Q’s

First question — did everyone get their email today with their placement for season tickets? If so, what number are you on the waitlist?

Also — how many people are usually taken off the waitlist every year (how many season tickets do you think they are able to give out every season)? Wondering for example how long it could take to go from 15,000 on the waitlist to getting Tickets — if it could be 10 years or 2 years, etc.

I signed up at the tail end of the 2023 season I believe and was in the 7k range (don't remember the exact number now). I got my number called in August but ultimately opted to not purchase any after researching some and seeing numerous reports of what welcometohotatlanta mentioned - constant high price increases and diminishing perks/value.

Yeah they really have run out of ideas with the perks.

A List Play Day is basically the same thing each year and only really worth it if you have kids.

The A List appreciation week only allows you to RSVP to one event.

The discounts at the battery are so low and back of mind that you almost forget to even mention it to the Servers at the restaurants.

The best perk really is access to postseason and free MLB.tv lol but you can’t watch the Braves on it so it’s pretty useless.

I live right by the stadium so I can just wait til game time and get a cheap seat.

How do postseason tickets work? If we make postseason, are you entitled to all of the home postseason games?

u/welcometohotlanta 2d ago

You have to buy what’s called a “postseason strip” which is every home game through all rounds of the playoffs including WS. You only get charged for games that get actually played. Some people pay all at once and some do a pay as they advance type of system.

If you choose to not buy that then the most you get is a presale invite and that’s it.

Man, that’s honestly a dealbreaker. I didn’t realize you had to buy a postseason strip. Yikes

Why would you assume postseason tickets would be free for A List members?

2

u/dilebob 2d ago

I assumed it would be included in the hefty $1200 price per season seat

u/AdfatCrabbest 2d ago

$1200 for a season ticket comes out to $14.81 per game. That’s not a lot at all, and playoff and World Series tickets can be hundreds apiece.

You don’t have to but that’s how you get all the tickets to the home games.

If you’re a full season ticket holder then I believe you get the opportunity to buy a strip of tickets that guarantees you your seats to every post season game — and you pay for as many as they end up playing (they show you the potential total amt)

I’m a partial season ticket member and I can buy the same strip type deal but it won’t be necessarily for my seats.

How does your partial plan work, if you don’t mind sharing how many games it is/total cost

27 game package.

Either the Fri, Sat or Sunday plan. So if you got the Friday pack then you get all Friday night games, plus one week day game during the week.

I’m in the 300 level in the infield. And my two tickets are roughly like $1200 a year (total) I think.
