12 year deal.....430 million dollars.....HOLY FUCK!

almost $224,000.00 a game.

Its fuckin crazy!

Baseball owners have lost their mind.

Reality is it don't take much increased or maintained attendance to pay $450K per home game.  Angels average about 37K a game.   $12 per ticket of which most will be paid for by the more expensive seats and sky boxes.  

Still completely out of hand but hey whatever the market can handle.

Crazy money especially for 12 years. Corporates are buying most season tickets out here. A good thing is minor league games are becoming more popular.

I'm sure that goes on about everywhere.   I usually go to one game a year.   Do it up nice in box seats with all the amenities.   Usually can get them for under face value.   Basketball can be far worse.   My youngest is a huge Warriors fan and fuck 3 tickets in Chicago that were not very good were $350 a pop.   Fuck that.

I was once a huge basketball fan. No more it’s just like gangs playing now. The 3 point shot has fucked up the game.

Parking was about $25 and we were driving back home from Chicago after so wasn't much for drinks.   Outrageous either way.   I told him next time we are seeing them play the Bucks.   Would have been less than a 1/3rd that much.   Few years ago so there was a few Bulls guys he wanted to see too.  NEVER again on my dime.  :lol:

College games are much cheaper. Last time I paid for pro tickets was like 12 years ago. Fuck that. 224k per game...that’s just rediculous.

Haven't liked the NBA since the days when the pistons were good.   They were my team growing up.

Fuck that. I go see the Mets/Brewers game all weekend for cheaper and get drunk in the parking lot for $12 for the parking charge.

X2....The Bad Boys teams were the best as was The NBA then....none of this buddy buddy bullshit about making super teams and patty cake horseshit on the court. Guys wanted to step on each other's throats and win.

I go see the Mets at Miller Park (Milwaukee) for less then 60 bucks a ticket all weekend about 15 rows back from the dugout. You pay to park and can get in 3 hours before game time and tailgate all you want. Literally cannot beat it. Being from Illinois and a Mets fan it’s that or Wrigley which is way more expensive and it sucks. Miller park is awesome..
