Colorado Rockies World Series Tickets on Sale

Atlanta, GA 10/24/2007 4:23:05 AM

Colorado Rockies World Series tickets are in extremely high demand. Yesterday, the ball club sold tickets through their website, coloradorockies.com. Within 90 minutes of them going on sale, the site had 8.5 million hits and the site began to be unavailable.

The site crashed leaving thousands of fans very unhappy.

 

The Rockies had placed 60,000 World Series tickets on sale, even though only 30,000 tickets are available to season-ticket holders, the two teams and Major League Baseball. Coors Field, the home stadium for the Rockies, holds 50,000 people 

 

Paciolan, the online sales company the Rockies sold their tickets through, had an unspecified problem. The crash also affected the company’s entire North American system.

 

The Rockies limited sales to four per person per game. Now the tickets are selling on eBay for as much as $6,000 for the four-ticket package.

 

The Rockies will face the Boston Red Sox in World Series. The Series opens in Boston with games on Wednesday and Thursday. Games 3 and 4 will be on Saturday and Sunday in Denver. If there is a Game 5, it will be played Monday in Denver.

 

Season-ticket holders got a chance to buy their tickets last weekend. Prices range from $65 to $250.

 

Tickets originally were to be sold at Coors Field and Rockies' Dugout Stores in the Denver area, as well as online. The team announced Wednesday all sales would be online, saying that would be fairer.
