Cubs Mastercard Presale Today, Fight the Urge to Be an Asshole

Today at noon the 2016 Mastercard presale begins for single game Cubs tickets. This is the two day window where shitheads and trust fund kids spend even more money to get a game ticket. So instead of paying the regular wallet-sodomizing prices, you can pay 20% more for one to get the game you want, days before the games go on sale for real. Do you have a Mastercard? Well then you lucky so and so only pay a 15% premium on top of the horse shit regular price. WHAT A GREAT FUCKING DEAL! (punches own face)

Come on people. I'm kind of over bitching about the ticket prices, but this presale nonsense needs to end. And the only way you can end it is by not giving in to this bullshit demand fearmongering the team wants you to believe. If you really want tickets to a specific game it's not that difficult to get them, and you don't need to buy them early at a premium price. Shit, go on StubHub right now and the game you want is probably available and at a price that is cheaper than this deal. Or better yet, check eBay. Remember eBay? Yeah, apparently people still sell tickets there too.

Bottom line. Don't buy into this garbage. Just wait until they go on sale normally and buy them then or use a different outlet.
