Last week, we reported a rumor about 2010 Yankees ticket on-sale dates. We provided what appeared to be reliable information, with the caveat that the Yankees are always behind in the ticket sales process, resulting in delays. Pre-sales were set to occur today (according to that timeline), so it appears the Yankees ticket office is once again running behind schedule and 2010 Yankees tickets won't go on sale this week.
On a positive note, 2010 home games at Yankee Stadium have been loaded onto Ticketmaster. This is the first sign that the on-sale date is fast approaching. The Yankees have updated the data in their master on-sale list (not accessible by the public), and they now have the following dates listed for 2010 Yankees tickets:
- Monday March 8 - Season ticket holders (full & partial presale)
- Wednesday March 10 - Online registration lottery winners presale
- Friday March 12 - General public on sale
Of course, this is all subject to the completion of season ticketholder upgrades. The ticket office is currently calling fans with a seniority date of 2004, meaning there is still some time to go. The Yankees enter the above dates as placeholders with the goal of putting the tickets on sale as soon as possible. However, there is nothing holding them to their on-sale dates, evidenced by what happened in 2009. Last year, the on-sale dates were as follows:
- 3/19 (Thursday): 41 & 81-Game Plan Holders Pre-sale
- 3/20 (Friday): All Other Plan Holders Pre-sale
- 3/23 (Monday): General Public Sale (lottery registration winners only)
