Cramer who is richer than most of us on this board list expensive sports tickets as one of five things he never purchases .
I just wondered how each of you felt about that . Interestingly, my tailgate crew consisting of a bunch of old farts who can well afford it
stopped going to the Champions classic because they “ were turned off” “ felt taken advantage of “ by $ 400 plus tickets . One friend
commented “$1000 bucks to see a game I can c better on TV ? Even though I can afford it , knowing where I came from it just makes me feel guilty . “
I suppose the powers that b will sell tickets at that price as long as fans will buy them. However, I wonder if perhaps they are killing the goose that lays the golden egg.
Are these prices out of control ? Are they unreasonably asking fans to pay for outrageous salaries of coaches and administrators? Are they trying to have their cake and eat it too by having huge TV deals and also jacking up ticket prices to unreasonable levels? I think so . Just wondered what people on this board felt?
