Dirt Cheap Swallows vs. Carp Tickets for Sale or Trade
By a stroke of luck, I have one adult ticket and two children’s tickets to the Swallows vs. Carp game in Kure, Hiroshima (about half an hour from Hiroshima City) at 6:00 p.m., Monday, August 4th.

The face prices are ¥1,500 adult, ¥700 child (actual prices higher as no ticket agents carry them and Kure wants certified money orders sent by registered mail, plus return registered mail postage, all of which adds about a third to the adult ticket price). I’m willing to part with the lot for the best offer I get in money or barter. Heck, even if you wanted only the one adult ticket, you could get it more cheaply here than by buying it from the city.

Comment on this post [Tokyo Yakult Swallows on WordPress] or e-mail me at transpacificradio atMark gmail d0t com and make an offer. No offer is too small - I really just hope the tickets don't go to waste.

I can mail the tickets to you if you like, or meet you in Kure before the game and hand them to you in person, if that’s better for you.

It's a great chance to catch a home-away-from-home game for Hiroshima in a smaller, more intimate setting than Hiroshima Municipal Stadium (and a good chance to catch a game while avoiding the crowds in Hiroshima surrounding the 63rd anniversary of the atomic bombing).

Even if you don't need the tickets, I'll be in Hiroshima for the Sunday, August 3rd game, then Kure for the game on the 4th, then down in nearby Matsuyama for the Swallows' home-away-from-home game on August 6th at Botchan Stadium, where the Swallows winter, if anyone reading this wants to meet up.

As interest is nil and the game is two days away, I will happily GIVE the tickets to anyone who wants them (and will even more happily trade them for a beer or something like that.)

E-mail the address above. I'll be at the 8/3rd game at Hiroshima Municipal and in Kure the next day. If you want the ticket(s), it'd be easiest to just give them to you in person at this point.
About

This is a site about Pro Yakyu (Japanese Baseball), not about who the next player to go over to MLB is. It's a community of Pro Yakyu fans who have come together to share their knowledge and opinions with the world. It's a place to follow teams and individuals playing baseball in Japan (and Asia), and to learn about Japanese (and Asian) culture through baseball.

It is my sincere hope that once you learn a bit about what we're about here that you will join the community of contributors.
