 What's up guys welcome to Washington Ronald Ray International Airport We are here for one reason only and that is for more baseball We're gonna watch the baseball more baseball more baseball I think we've had this conversation already before also for this trip one of the things that we are going to be discussing is how I ended up actually getting here because With this trip my total cost for these tickets 66 bucks So we're gonna be talking about how that happened and stay tuned because it's going to be very very interesting Not sure what's going on here, but this airport is like very very Dead this walkway Nothing wrong. All right, so let's backtrack a bit first off. I'm here in Washington, D. C. Home of our Current team of interest the Washington Nationals. So this is Saturday, October 26th. We are here for game four of the World Series between the Nationals and the Houston Astros Series is currently two to one two to one for the Nationals and You are now caught up very important side note Watch this All right, so they know the basics now, you know the who me what baseball When tonight where Nationals Park? Why why why now that's the question? Why did this happen? How did this happen? When did this happen? How how did this happen? Alright, so what I did is I actually joined this website called lunatic So initially it was called shoo in now. It's called lunatics. I'll put a link below Basically what they do is well They have two parts of their business one is you know regular ticket reseller website like stuff up and everybody else But then their other side of the business is just a bit unique Is actually they sell what they call post season reservations? So reservations are basically Not a ticket per se, but it converts into a ticket should the team qualify for that post-season game So when you want to buy a reservation, you can buy it any time basically once the market the market opens up And then from then until the game is actually you know guaranteed to happen But they're more likely to make that game then obviously the price will be more expensive They're less likely to be less expensive with all that being said you can buy reservations for basically any of the major sports NFL and NHL NBA and then MLB and then they also do it for some college sports So they do it for college football college basketball So kind of like last bit of logistics with them. They don't sell a specific seat They actually sell you a location So sometimes they'll just be upper bowl or lower bowl or they'll have specific You know ranges or areas of where they'll have seating like lower sideline or lower end zone So really all depends on each of the different leagues and teams and how they kind of lay out their map So just make sure you take a look at that before you make a purchase Obviously if you want to buy reservation in a lower bowl versus an upper bowl, it'll be more expensive for the lower bowl The more prime the ticket the more expensive It's gonna be regardless if the team does qualify for that post-season game then obviously you win and you're gonna get a ticket Guaranteed in that section if they lose unfortunately, you lose out all your money So there is definitely some risk to take into account there. So far I've had a really good really good experience I actually use them also for Toronto Maple Leafs reservations last year So I was able to kind of get you know tickets for the First round and I've also used them for the Toronto Raptors with the NBA finals. It just finished So all these you know, I've always had the tickets about in a couple days before the event actually happens I'll just kind of send them off to you However, the delivery method is it depends so sometimes it'll be mobile tickets or hard tickets or whatever the case may be There's tons of options there There's definitely an Opportunity for you to kind of get some discounted seats at the same time You do need to remember that anything you buy there is obviously a risk involved That the team may not qualify and if they don't unfortunately, you will lose out on all your money All right with that being said I think it's time to get some food and then go and enjoy these wonderful wonderful seats that I am going to Be sitting in and we are now just for success as you can see I am bringing it home Let's go to the game One of my favorite things people who try and take those pictures of those things Where they like are holding buildings or touching buildings or eating buildings That's what they were doing So many cool things in Washington I must come back because I'll have been here for like 20 somebody years and even from back then I don't remember Any of that let's talk let's talk let's talk with the wonderful Washington Monument in the background All right, so like I was saying 66 dollar ticket to go to the world series. How did it happen this case? I paid 66 bucks on October 1st for the right to have a ticket And I was lucky enough to have them qualify and that let me go into the game for free basically Well, six six dollar price ticket and yeah Using the service doesn't mean that you'll always get a ticket in the sense that if the team does not qualify And you paid your money saying this gift I paid six six dollars and the Washington Nationals ended up losing in one of the first two rounds Then that would have meant I got nothing. I paid 66 bucks for the opportunity to do absolutely nothing Thanks for playing. Please try again Basically, that's kind of how their business model works. They expect to be able to sell more reservations to different games and events Then the teams that will actually qualify right so there's three teams only to the world series So if they sell reservations for 28 other teams that don't make it, that's how they're gonna make all their money One other thing about these guys with their regular seats They also give you 20% back to buy postseason reservations So if you spend a hundred bucks on a pair of tickets and you get another 20 bucks in the back that you can now use Towards any other postseason reservations. So all these things they're all Just incentives are ways to kind of keep you coming back to their website. It's definitely useful. But again, happy remember reservations Definitely not guaranteed. So don't be expecting to be able to Get the same deal every single time. The last thing with this is that prices will always be changing for reservations So when I bought my reservation, it was right after game five of the NLDS So at that point the Washington Nationals had literally just clinched. I ended up buying my reservation then Within like two or three minutes later the price had already kind of jumped up to like 125 bucks and then after that they were like over 500 and even then actually we look at it would have been a great deal, but still That's kind of how it worked out for me. So Obviously your mileage may vary Let's finish this talk up at the stadium because that's where all the fun is actually going to happen isn't this Japanese through the sea of these tickets actually Did work no structure views feel pretty close No complaints Thumbs up so much excitement so much hope it is score They gave up a grand slam and Next thing, you know, everyone is all impressed and it's our rating And then they lost and now it's two to but but but but but definitely highly recommend Only downside is you don't really get a pick where your seats are so zone map and where your seats are so like upper bowl over bowl And they can decide so Generally speaking in a situation like this where tickets are so I don't sure something got cut off there, but basically I was saying One of the downsides is that it's zone based So obviously if tickets are very expensive, you're very unlikely to get a good spot in the zone so it was like the whole lower bowl was like my option but Lower bowl was like hundred levels 200 levels and even something like 300 levels kind of thing So it's like very rare. You'll get like amazing seats, but you will get seats Just not Closest to the whole plate because I was kind of hoping to be a bit closer, but it was fun. Anyway, I think that kind of covers it This was a really fun trip. I now need to wake up for I now need to be at the airport for 5 a.m. Because my flight is at 6 a.m. Tomorrow well today, so I'm like four hours five hours Not a lot of time to sleep. So I'm gonna sleep you guys should be sleeping. You're not sleeping already. Definitely go to bed
