Grinder Plan People F*cked by White Sox

I wanted to de-lurk so I can rant and rave about how screwed I feel I am
getting and solicit opinions from others or see if anyone has the same
experience. Around the All-Star break, the White Sox offered something
called a "grinder plan" where you essentially get season tickets for the
second half of the season. The primary benefit of this plan is "Option to
purchase tickets for postseason games" (direct quote from the ChiSox
website). So I spent over $5,000 for 4 Grinder Plan seats.

Now it turns out that "Option to purchase tickets for postseason games"
doesn't mean ALL postseason games. I am only able to buy tickets for the 3
1st round games, ALCS Game 1 and World Series Game 1. Does that seem
deliberately misleading to anyone else besides me...? Maybe I am just
biased here.

For some reason, I am still optimistic that this team is the best in the
American League and World Series bound, so this is an extreme
disappointment.

I dunno. Did you read all the fine print before making the purchase?
Seems to me it had to be in there somewhere else they'd be forced to
sell you tix to all the post-season games.
