Wait what, why are "season tickets" a scam in the USA?

I mean, I pay £320 a year for my EFL Championship club's season ticket and it won't rise if we're promoted to the Premier League next season.

I can't imagine them ringing me up and going "Alright son d'ya a ticket for ten games for £500"?

Season tickets are a reflection of demand, also teams do overcharge bit because they know there are people out there that will pay for those season tickets. For a franchise it's more worth it for 10 people to buy $3,200 tickets than it is to get 3,000 people to buy $10 tickets.

relenqhishing all your demands as a fan at the first mention of "prices are huge cause of demand" is such an american thing. These owners are already rich as fuck, why not demand them to keep ticket prices on the level of a meal at a restaurant instead of these moon prices?

thats the point. fan groups could demand them to stop raising prices above the average cost for a steak in the town for example.

>fan groups
don't exist
and if there was pushback against the team/ownership, it gets ignored or the team simply moves to a different city lol

if they want the jew owner to relocate the team then sure they can do that.

basketball arenas are tiny, essentially a gymnasium. even an individual seat is like $400

>>154244106
you're essentially paying a retainer to guarantee a seat for the games you actually want to watch, and in one specific seat too

it's simple, NBA and NBA fans are a joke
fans will stop showing up if the team isn't good or stars aren't playing so it's retarded to by tickets in advance because you can get 2nd hand tickets for a lot of games basically for free

buy tickets in advance*

enormous difference between seeing a professional NBA or NFL game and a paltry little soccer match that’s an every day occurrence in lickpisshield-on-kent
