Angels Schedule: You Won’t Believe How Inexpensive Halos Tickets Are This Season
The Angels have had a great offseason, adding needed depth at a lot of positions with the acquisitions of Hunter Renfroe, Gio Urshela, Brandon Drury, Tyler Anderson, and Carlos Estevez. Of course, they already had major star power with Mike Trout, Shohei Ohtani, and Anthony Rendon, and they head into spring training hoping to be competitive in the AL West and find their way back to the postseason for the first time since 2014.
The best part is, you can see it for really cheap! As Bill Shaikin passed along on Twitter, the Halos are holding a special sale where tickets for most games can be had for just $5 each.
Of course, the $5 per ticket price isn't exactly true. As Shaikin notes, tickets for this promotion must be purchased through https://www.mlb.com/angels/tickets/specials/report, which means you're paying online service fees in addition to the ticket price. For example, to take a family of four to a game with the $5 tickets, the total cost of the tickets ends up at $34.95, or about $8.74 per ticket.
To be clear, $8.74 per ticket is still a really good price. It just seems weird that here in 2023, we're still just accepting "service charges" that only apply when a computer is doing all the work, whereas the way to avoid a "service charge" is to buy tickets at the stadium in person from an employee who's actually being paid to be there. It's backward and silly, and where there's a promotion like this where the tickets must be purchased online, there's no workaround. I know "$8.74 per ticket" doesn't have the same ring to it as "$5 per ticket," but what it lacks in ring, it makes up for in accuracy.
(The $8.74 per ticket is for a party of four, by the way; two tickets will cost you $19.95, bumping the per-ticket price up to $9.98; but if you have more friends, a party of eight gets the price down to $8.12 per ticket.)
Anyway, you can go see the Angels for just $8.74 (or thereabouts) per ticket for 30 select games throughout the 2023 regular season! Use the link above.
