    I was just going off the numbers that two other season ticket holders posted.

    I still don’t think that really translates to the secondary market. The less popular games will still be cheap or free. The highly sought after games will still be outrageously expensive. The people selling them would sell them for $1000 if they could regardless of if they paid $10 or $100 each for them.

    True. But I don't know of any other business where the customers (fans) voluntarily donate thousands, hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars to the "business" so it will be more successful.

    I renewed for my 40th year; 4 tix. I noticed the increase in tix price. Two lower bowl and 2 in TDT plus 4 F/G tix ($120 each; remember when they were $10…..). Add in booster fees; just a few $ shy of 8k.

    But overall, it's damn sure more than any 10 or 20% more expensive to live than it was a few years ago

    I just looked at my invoice..2 tickets upper SEZ ( love my seats..my view is great ) the booster fees are the same, the actual ticket price for 1 season ticket package 6 games $ 505 ( $480 last year) ..so 2 season tickets plus booster fees plus $75 tax and fees ( was $15) ..my invoice total is $1385...so my season tickets package went up a total of $110 for 2 season tickets... an increase of $55 each season ticket package

    It’s sad that games are pricing out the average fan.
