Quote from: Del. on December 12, 2023, 06:10 AMStub Hub opening day ticket for standing room only is $431.

Top ticket just under $10,000.

So at those prices you gotta be paying $50-$60 for a hot dog and a beer.  :wallbash:

and the tax payers of Anaheim are still paying off the bonds the city sold to build a stadium
for the LA Rams.
Pro sports is nothing but welfare for the uber rich!

and as long as people keep showing up at the park, teams have no impetus to reel in the absurd contracts that they are handing out.

Me neither.

I will stick with minor league hockey where you can still get a ticket for as little as $14 (group rate),
and a hot dog + a draft beer will set you back about $10-$12.  :cheers:  :thumbsup:  :cheer:

LOL, you would have to pay for tickets, drive me, and drop me off at the gate to get me to go to a MLB/NBA/NFL/NHL game. Even if you could convince me that the stadium had the best Vegan food on the planet I would still not be interested.

My girlfriend has a second job working at the baseball stadium in Seattle. She gets so many free tickets a year. She's always asking if I want to go and I never do. Everything is so expensive these days I'd rather just take a walk by the river.  :lol:   By the time I pay to get there, and if I pay for anything else while I'm there, I'm in it for $100.  No thanks.. I don't like baseball enough.

I'll go back to being a conservative, when conservatives go back to being conservative.

Same, We have suppliers and vendors offering Twins, Wild, Timbervolves, and even occasionally Vikings tickets quite often. I loathe having to go to MPLS or StPaul. I avoid going there if at all possible.

Personally, I wouldn't be caught dead at Doyer Stadium. That's where out on parole Raider fans spend their off-seasons.

My son took me and the wife to a ballgame in KC.

He spent waaaaaaaaay too much on tickets, sitting us right behind home plate. But I was shocked by the reasonable concessions prices there.

It just happened to be dollar hot dog night, and they were decent dogs. There's a big Boulevard Brewing bar(local KC craft brewer) with great beer for under $10/pint. I wanna say that cheap domestic tallboy beers were also under $10.

It was a cheaper trip than I'm used to at our single A minor league park up here.

I went to KC to watch the Cardinals play the royals one time. As soon as the Royals lost, they started shooting off fireworks. I thought, WOW! what do they do when they win.  ;D

Lol. They do fireworks on Friday night so that was probably it. A pretty nice display too.
