New York Yankees offer 25¢ bleacher seats for 2009 opening game at new Yankee Stadium


The price of a bleacher seat for the exhibition openers at the new Yankee Stadium will cost far less than a soda at the concession stands.

The Yankees have announced that bleacher seats for the games against the Chicago Cubs on April 3 and 4 will sell for 25 cents and grandstand tickets will be $1.10(US funds) .

That matches the prices for the opener of the original Yankee Stadium against Boston on April 18, 1923.

Field level seats at the new 52,325-seat ballpark will cost $45 to $50, main level $20 to $45 and terrace level $20 to $35. Full season-ticket holders will get the seats for free, and those who bought partial season-tickets will be given a pre-sale.

The regular-season opener is scheduled for April 16 against Cleveland.

Tickets cost as much as $2,500 a game during the regular season.
