Seats 5-6. Row 8. Section 11.

Would you like the most tragically ironic, financial apocalypse related sporting event seats in the world? Good news then. Bernie Madoff's Mets tickets in the newly built CitiField are up for sale!

For $810, you can put yourself in Bernard Madoff's place -- his Citi Field seats, that is.

The trustee overseeing the liquidation of Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities put a pair of tickets for Monday's Citi Field opener on sale on eBay on Wednesday. As of 5 p.m. today, the current bid was $800 for the tickets, seats 5-6 in the eighth row in section 11, just to the home plate side of the Mets' dugout.

EBAY LISTING

There was a deadline of 8:21 p.m. Friday to bid for the seats, which are called Delta Club Gold and come with access to the Delta Club behind home plate. The tickets retail for $525 apiece, and the $800 bid for the pair was the only one that had been made. The next bid would have to be at least $10 more.

Lawyer Irving H. Picard worked out a deal with the Mets, returning to the team two $695 seats in the second row, called Delta Club Platinum, in exchange for the pair being sold on eBay. Links for other April tickets to be sold will be posted on Picard's Web site, www.madofftrustee.com.

Not only are the seats in an area named after a failing airline, they're in the AIG Foul Ball Zone behind home plate, right near Hank Paulson's Pulled Pork BBQ Sandwich cart. Later on the Mets will be selling off the individual April game Madoff seats, but hope to sell the rest of the years seats in a package deal. Frankly this is the best chance you'll have to see a sporting event in the style befitting a 21st century robber baron. Well, at least until Joe Cassano's luxury box at Manchester United's AIG Financial Priducts Division Globodome come up for sale.
