I don't like to sit in the **** seats but 40 bucks for the pair is real cheap.

the ten for twenty is a great deal. Props to the Astros for making it affordable for people to go to the games. Rocket tickets are so expensive.

This deal is better than free sex. Now when I show up in the 5th inning, I won't feel bad.

IMO... there are not too many bad seats at MMP. I have pretty much sat everywhere in that stadium, with the exception of the Diamond Club.

I don't think so. They did this deal last season too. The regular price is 7 or 8 dollars.
Regular price for a child is a $1.
Edit: Just checked.
Adults - $7
Children - $1

$2 a game is great, esp if you hang out in the outfield bar.

Well it's a great deal for sure but IMO I do not like the design of MMP's upper deck people walk up those stairs and then depending on your angle they block the view and there are also some things I can't see like the closest dugout or certain corners of the outfield depending on where your at.
All and all MMP is one of my favorite parks but the Upper Deck I just don't really like unless you are at the bottom level of the upper deck those are pretty good.
8 games with 70,000 seats
41 home games with 18,000 seats.
81 home games with 40,000 seats.
I think baseball would be cheaper.

Actually I think they were $5 before this season... but I know in the past they've done dollar ticket nights...the sweetest deals would be the dollar ticket/dollar hot dog night. Pretty hard to beat that!
ahem...rockets.

The last couple of sections in each corner of the upper deck is $7 a game those are the tickets that are on sale for 10 for 20.
Last year those tickets were $5 now on Tuesday's you can get two tickets for $2 with a poweraid lable as long as they have them.
Now personally I don't care about spending the 40+ bucks to sit lower level what pisses me off is $7 16 oz beer and long lines for concessions.

i hope someone can answer this for me. if you buy these tix, does this automatic give you rights to playoff tix for the same price also? are these considered "season tix"?

i doubt it very seriously. these are promotion packages...i think you have to buy at least 25 games or so at full price in order to have playoff rights.

you do not get playoff priority for the ten for twenty deal. you have to be a season ticket holder or a mini plan holder. As for the mini plan, you get the same value seats for your playoff tickets, however, they are not necessarily the same seats.

they're not everywhere though....the plan is to get there early and find a section where there is no usher...
