With a Mariners playoff game Sunday night, Metro says the West Seattle Water Taxi will follow its Saturday schedule on Sunday too. First pitch for the M’s second American League Division Series game vs. Detroit will be just after 5 pm, so chances are you’ll be able to get a boat home before the last run of the night leaves Pier 50 at 10:45 pm. Metro is of course also pitching the Water Taxi as a great way to get to the weekend’s other three big games – M’s ALDS game 1 and <strong>Sounders FC vs. Portland on Saturday, Seahawks vs. Tampa Bay Sunday afternoon. Read all about it here. (But don’t forget the likely parking crunch on Saturday! Metro shuttles will be runnind Water Taxi-matching schedules too.)

Its been great to see the Watee Taxi running more often at night in recent months for sporting events. I wonder how many people are taking advantage of the additional runs.

Nope because they’re $500

On Day 1 there were upper-deck seats for about a third that. Which is still a lot of money for a ticket to anything. I wish I could remember what we paid for outfield tickets to one of the legendary 1995 games in the Kingdome ….

  Yes, I really want to go and basically going to check out resales on the day of and see if there’s a drop.

Pitching the water taxi … I saw what you did there.

I won’t be paying these outrageous prices, especially to pay for multi-million dollar player salaries. My brother who has lived here forever said he stopped going to Sonic’s games back in the day when reg season tickets skyrocketed and were no longer affordable for the middle-class.

Why hate on the athletes and not the owner? Players should get a fair cut of the pie, do you not agree?

  That whole “owner” versus “employee” argument loses a little punch when you talking about millionaires versus billionaires. I’m not spending my hard earned money to subsidize either, but I thought the “either” should have been obvious.

    Seems pretty reasonable for someone with a one in 100-million-people talent should be paid well. Especially when their career will end in their 30s. I save my anger for people who deserve it.

      Save my anger? Yeah, if you aren’t angry about living a time that makes the Gilded Age look like socialism, then you aren’t paying attention – or you have too comfortable a life.

The Water Taxi is good vibes only! Trying to find parking near the stadium during a double-play Seahawks/Mariners game on Sunday is a no-fly zone. Thank you WSB for reporting on this. And thank you to the Water Taxi crew for running late on Sunday!

Sorry, comment time is over.
