5 Ways to Buy New York Yankee Tickets

Yankee tickets have always been notoriously hard to come by. Combine that with this being their last season in Yankee Stadium, and this year can be hell for people wanting to see the hallowed grounds one last time. But true New Yorkers know that if you look in the right places, anything can be found. As a die-hard Yankee fan, I've spent years searching for the best places to get tickets at a reasonable price, legally. Here are a few places I visit when I need tickets to a game.

Yankees.com or TicketMaster

I figured I'd start off this article with some of the more conventional methods of getting tickets. If you want to buy official tickets at official face value, then Yankees.com or TicketMaster are the places to go. These are the two official online retailers of Yankee tickets and the cheapest places you will find real tickets. However, due to this being the last year in Yankee Stadium, tickets are even harder to come by then usual. Games against teams like the Mets and Red Sox have long been sold out, but you can still find some upper deck seats for the less popular teams. Just don't expect to get anywhere close to the field. And if you do, get ready to crack open the wallet.

Yankee Stadium Box Office on Gameday

Not many people know this, but the Yankee Stadium Box Office always releases additional tickets the same day as the game. These tickets are usually in the bleachers or upper deck, and they cost a bit more than of you were to buy them in advance. But if the game is sold out, you don't really have a choice, do you? This method is great for last minute buys and for games that would normally have no tickets available online. Just make sure you get in line outside the stadium extra early for these.
