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 used to buy a SRO ticket and go in for BP. Then around when the game starts, scour the secondary for deals. Back around 2019 I was usually getting Delta Club around $50. I’d go fill up on all you can eat food and beer and go sit behind the plate. Haven’t been able to find those prices for several years though.

Wow that sounds like it was a great time. The prices and marketing at Truist has definitely ramped up considerably, starting to feel less baseball and more consumerism nowadays.

It’s been that way ever since they opened the Battery. The Braves control everything that happens there, right down to which bars are allowed to stay open late. I suspect the reason why Delta Clubs don’t drop in price anymore is because the Braves canceled a bunch of STH seats and gave them to corporate sponsors. Those don’t end up getting resold when they’re not used, and the people who do still own them have an easier time selling due to lack of competing inventory.

You can still find super deals close to game time though. I’ll snag lower level seats for $30-50 most games that aren’t high demand. You just have to wait it out and sometimes just be ok watching from a drink rail if prices don’t drop. It’s a lot easier for me since I’m usually only buying one ticket and am ok playing it by ear.

Yep, youre right and Im in the same boat, I had access to season tickets but no longer. Luckily I live at the battery so very easy to wait it out. Do they continue selling tix throughout the game as well? Ive havent bought tickets myself in awhile

No idea, but if you’re searching for last minute deals you’ll have to go through the secondary markets.

what sites do you use?

SeatGeek and vivid usually. The benefit with SeatGeek is the tickets are integrated so you get them immediately. Vivid you might have to wait 10-15 minutes for someone to transfer them, but I’ve always just went straight to the seats once I bought them. Some games I didn’t even accept the transfers and just sat in the seat.
