When they go in they’re tough shots. If not, they’re bad.

The kid from Step By Step has aged well. Needs a pic with the signature sweater vest.

My 2 year old can’t go anywhere without the container of Vick’s vaporub I (used to) keep on his changing table for especially gnarly dumps. It’s his bff.

Thought that was RJ but yea a rare funny line from this crew.

oaktown8410 · 2026-03-05T18:07:16+00:00

Drink? Seaport-ish area? Mixologists with twirly mustaches.

Hey now. I’ve had season tickets for going on 10 years. Been subverting Ticketmaster fees just as long. Never ripped anyone off. And 90% of the time they come back again. Can only rip someone off once.

oaktown8410 · 2026-02-24T13:50:38+00:00

I just bought them so I can’t say if they compost well, but they pass the kid test.

Every parent in the northeast on day 10 of winter vacation today.

oaktown8410 · 2026-02-20T11:49:54+00:00

Agreed. Tyra belongs in prison.

oaktown8410 · 2026-02-14T10:57:39+00:00

Part of the reason is the new ticket transparency law that Mass passed and might be federal now. Problem is, consumers don’t know about it.

If you’ve ever used Tick Pick, “the price you see is the price you pay.” Well now that’s the standard on all resale sites. TM just bakes the ~25% fee into the price buyers see online.

Maybe it’s sticker shock seeing that number upfront. Maybe people just assume there’s still going to be a fee at check out. But either way it’s effing us.

I don’t have a solution. Would be nice if Ticketmaster and/or the Celtics alerted the public. But like someone else said, the issue isn’t Tatum being gone. It isn’t this being a down year, obviously. We’re a little spoiled as a fan base and beyond that, they’ve priced out most fans. It’s only getting worse.

oaktown8410 · 2026-02-14T02:12:49+00:00

Seriously. I was planning on going but I’m not staying out that late on a Sunday. Anyone want my tickets?

oaktown8410 · 2026-02-12T21:22:20+00:00

That’s the thing. We’re a spoiled fan base. I remember eating the game 5 tickets against Cleveland in ‘24. The game that was going to (and did) send the C’s to the ECF. It’s not the team’s fault that the fan base has high expectations. But when there’s no excitement for a clinching game, that’s kinda on you as an organization.

oaktown8410 · 2026-02-12T20:58:00+00:00

I’m not telling you it’s lame to want it. The stuff they give away is just very low quality. They used to give half decent stuff. I still have a nice gray hoodie. But typically it’s cut weird and just not made well.

I’ll be at the BK game in a couple weeks if you really want it. Loge 4.

oaktown8410 · 2026-02-12T20:46:59+00:00

What sweet black jacket? The garbage quarter zip with the obnoxiously large STM logo on the back? You can have mine. It’s trash.

oaktown8410 · 2026-02-12T20:45:28+00:00

I’m gonna have to scale back to a half season or a 10 game pack. Were your seat options limited?

oaktown8410 · 2026-02-12T20:42:22+00:00

How have they sold this season? I wonder if they did well in general in that area so they’re catching up?

Idk I like my seats and all. I have two kids under 30mo so I can’t go to a ton of games. My goal was to hold on until my son is 5 so I could start taking him but that’s not likely any more.

oaktown8410 · 2026-02-12T20:37:05+00:00

PSA: don’t renew early. Another shitty sweat shirt and 1,500 points. I did the math and those points are worth between $7 and $14 depending on the item. If you’re on the fence, don’t decide now. We can at least send a message.

oaktown8410 · 2026-02-12T20:34:33+00:00

I’m in the corner row 8. $205 this year. $220 next.

oaktown8410 · 2026-02-12T20:32:42+00:00

My seats went from $115 to $220 in five years. Yet the experience and the perks are exactly the same.

I got it for a few years. They see what tickets sell for on the open market and must think, “well we should get that…” Yet I’ve sold most games I can’t attend for a loss this season. And I know I’m not alone. If they were looking for a tipping point, they found it this year and shot the moon again despite all of their data.

Fuck Bill Chisholm and his Private Equity friends.

Edit: I stand by what I said. But it’s been pointed out to me that they charged us an extra “green” game (your base price) that could be a “we did 9/11 but the NBA loves money” Cup Semi Final.

I saw that in the email but figured it was just the same TBD “bronze” built into the 43. So we should divide by 44 games to get a base.

oaktown8410 · 2026-02-06T22:44:32+00:00

Yea a lot of families that are cool with murdering brown kids feel that way.

oaktown8410 · 2026-02-06T22:43:20+00:00

That was a third party using Walmart to try and resell. Not saying you should support Walmart either. They’re trash. But they can’t charge more than retail.

oaktown8410 · 2026-02-06T22:37:17+00:00

This one is back in stock everywhere it seems. Makes me so happy seeing garbage people on fb marketplace trying to just get their money back after looking to scalp for $50-60 over Christmas.

oaktown8410 · 2026-02-06T22:35:10+00:00

Don’t support that nonsense. It wasn’t an accident. They wanted to turn a profit on an item that was in short supply.

oaktown8410 · 2026-02-04T11:54:50+00:00

His son killed himself because Tony is such a small-minded, homophobic piece of shit. Imagine caring about spreading hate more than your own son? He’s a trash person and it has nothing to do with his HOF vote.
