Game 1 of the World Series is set to be played on Friday, October 29th, at the home ground of the Houston Astros, Minute Maid Park. Out of the games, 3rd, 4th, and 5th will be played at the home ground of the Phillies, Citizen Banks Park. But the Stadium has made some changes in the ticket prices for the three games, which might make it tough for people wanting to go see the game.
What is the price set by Citizens Bank Park for the Philadelphia Phillies WS game against the Astros?
Both teams have won less than three World Series rings, and this series means a lot for each of them. Therefore, more people would be wanting to go see the historic clash. The ballpark saw this as a chance to make the business go up and therefore increased the ticket prices.

The question here is – how much a person is willing to pay to watch their favorite team play at home in the World Series?
How are the fans reacting to the ticket Prices?
Are the World Series games now only for the elites?
Fans sadly can’t attend the Super Bowl, NBA Finals or World Series anymore. Just for the elites

They might, but they also might not drop.
Prices will drop. They just try and get as many people to overpay as possible before game day

Selling prices mean nothing. What are buyers actually paying for the tickets? The prices will come down and winners are being notified who registered through the Phillies World Series lottery.

Wait for that day and go in person, the black market will sell it to you for around $400-500 once the game start

Well, the Astros have a lead of 7-0.
They’ll drop to $20 again once the Astros are up 3-0
