I logged on to the Phillies website at 7am this morning to get ready to make my single game ticket purchases and they were already on sale. What happened to the internet sale starting at 7:30 today.
Din't get the good seats I was hoping for. I feel a little cheated toady by the unannounced early start of the ticket sales. The Mets game I was hoping to see was already sold out!
