The Mets and Yankees are already selling full and partial season tickets for 2021. Starting next week the Mets will be selling single-game tickets. I think it is much too early for them to do this. The Coronavirus will not end when the calendar turns to 2021. There could be a serious resurgence this fall. It is quite possible that 2021 games will have to be played without fans or possibly with a fraction of the stadiums' capacity. Why should the teams hold the fans' money for several months?
I finally received all my refunds from the Mets, but it took me a number of months and several phone calls to get them. As I stated once before in This Journal I will have to go to the Yankee ticket office in 2021 to get an exchange. I think it would be futile to complain to the New York Department of Consumer Affairs. They must be swamped with people making complaints about not getting refunds.
Another thought - Is there a digital divide for people buying tickets for any kind of event. How can you buy tickets if you don't have a computer, internet access, or smartphone?
