are tickets expensive or are you not making enough money

well seeing how majority of people agree that sporting event tickets are expensive it has nothing to do with my salary of $52,000 a year, which isnt anything to write home about, but hey it Texas it gets me the necessaities

I hadnt been to a spurs game in like 2 years, which that year I went to 5 games, but all were free tickets I either won or was given. Well my girl and were talking about going to a game, we didn't want nosebleed seats and obviously the courtside seats are too high, so I started looking at midlevel type seats and they run about a $100:snoop:times 2x plus want ever snacks food, thats like $250

out of the major sports baseball is the most affordable. and for me, that means white sox, cuz wrigley field is ass due to how small it is. plus US cellular is close as hell to my crib anyways.

bulls and bears tickets are outrageous. bulls got the nerve to have like $75 face value for the worst nosebleeds in the 300 section in the corner :scusthov:

in this era of HD, I'd never pay that for tickets unless they were 200 level or lower.

the cost to attend a game is not relative to the actual experience you will generally have at these joints. you can get a 1LB rib eye, some asparagus, and a six pack of beer for the price of 1 beer and a hot dog at a game and cook you up a nice meal while you watch at home. youll likely be sitting next to some loud idiot at a game. youll likely have an average or worse vantage point of the happenings. you have to deal with traffic to and from the game, and then the hassle of parking. you will miss several minutes of game action if you want another brew, or if you have to take a piss. why would you even bother with all of that when better options are out there

and the face value for them shyts were $225 and she paid $100 for the pair from a co-worker who was mad at her husband.

bottom line, is these ticket prices are outrageous.

Bro I spent almost 10 stacks of nets season tickets and that cheap considering what the Knicks are charging. I thought I got a good deal considering I have all access (all you can eat food, priority for my seating at other events at the Barclays etc). 250 for 2 tix ain't even that bad to me. But to each it own I guess.

That's why you have to have a ticket guy. My dude gets me FSU tix for cheap as hell an I'm usually only 5-8 rows behind the bench.

:comeon: Bruh, don't be THAT guy.

If just a couple years ago you could get near courtside/field seats for $50-60 dollars...now the team is a little better and those same seats are $225, THAT is too much money.

Has nothing to do with how much money you make and everything to do with priniciple.

$20 ticket raise, ok.....200% increase, nope not that important to me. I'll watch on TV.

The Knicks are legally raping cats...but the Brooklyn Nets aren't that far behind. They do have some games dirt cheap...they recently had a $15 dollar game for sale against the Suns. But they had athe gall to call me about a week ago trying to sell me 2 $1200 tickets mid level for 16 games :rudy:

unless ur rich, that's kinda pricey.

back when my pops used to take me to bulls games on the regular in the 90's them shyts had face value of like $35 a ticket. and that was when :mjpls: was in his prime and we were winning ships.

for tickets to go up almost 10X here since then is ridiculous. esp since we got no ships to show for it.
