CHICAGO -- The World Champion Chicago White Sox have announced that 2006 season tickets are sold out. Fans who wish to add their names to the waiting list for 2007 season tickets can call (312) 674-1000 or visit whitesox.com.
For the first time in franchise history, the season ticket base will be nearly 21,500 in 2006; also for the first time, the White Sox sold 2 million tickets prior to Spring Training, with nearly 2.2 million sold to date. The 2006 season marks the eighth time that the White Sox will top the 2 million mark in attendance (1983-84, 1990-93, 2005-06).
"Selling out our season tickets is a great testament to the support we've received from White Sox fans in the past few months," said Brooks Boyer, White Sox vice president of marketing. "Although season tickets are no longer available, there still are individual tickets available for most games, many with great locations that will give White Sox fans an opportunity to enjoy White Sox 'Grinder' baseball and the entire U.S. Cellular Field experience."
The White Sox drew 2.34 million fans in 2005, the fourth-highest total in franchise history behind the first three seasons at new Comiskey Park (1991-93), when the ballpark had an additional 6,600 seats. Chicago's 2005 average home attendance (28,924) was the highest since '94, and the 21 percent increase over '04 was the largest in the American League. The White Sox also recorded a franchise record 18 sellouts, eclipsing the previous mark of 10 (2004), and drew 39 crowds of 30,000 or more.
Individual-game tickets to 2006 White Sox home games are available online at whitesox.com, at the U.S. Cellular Field Box Office, through Ticketmaster phone lines at (312) 559-1212 and (866) SOX-GAME and at Chicagoland Ticketmaster outlets, including Coconuts and Carson Pirie Scott locations.
