Orioles' Season Ticket Prices to Stay The Same in '09

With perhaps some of the worst economic times in memory this country and the possibility of many families being hit hard, the Baltimore Orioles announced that there will be no ticket increases for next season.

The price of Orioles season tickets at Camden Yards will remain the same for 2009. Orioles director of communications Greg Bader confirmed yesterday that season-ticket invoices have been mailed and there are no price increases. Individual tickets go on sale in January. The Orioles raised ticket prices for select seats before last season, marking the first hike in several seasons. Attendance at Camden Yards in 2008 fell below the 2 million mark for the first time in the stadium's 17-year history. The Orioles suffered through an 11th straight losing season and finished in last place for the first time in 20 years.

A good move by the team in times like these. Hopefully, the economy won't get worse, but April is nearly five months away...
