MLB still hasn’t hit NFL prices yet. Last time I went to the royals with wife and kid 1st base line about 11th row. I think it was about $140-$160 for all 3 of us.
Football and college football have become ridiculously overpriced. Same with concerts. I haven’t been to a Nebraska home game for about 4 years now. Usually went to two a year. They need to end the home streak. It’s been artificially pumped for years. And from I’ve seen some tickets are still available through the university which never happens
With all these companies throwing so much ad revenue into these games I have to wonder if it’s also cause for product inflation.
But even kids sports are becoming outrageous. Some of the money these traveling teams get is insane. My daughter found A volleyball team that’s only about $300 for the season. But others in our area are anywhere from 1k up to 8k.
I think luckily it’s because most games still have plenty of open seats, and it’s pretty clear that for the most part people only go when it’s easy to get in. I also think cheaper seats subsidize the real money - food and drink. They know a 30 dollar ticket is cheap, but they also know for that family of for for $140 you might spend an additional 150 just on food that is worth maybe 20 bucks. Many will eat ahead of time or do what they can, but I see lines hours long waiting in line for that $15 dollar hotdog.

MLB literally has 10x the number of games in a season. NFL tickets are expensive because each team only plays 8 home games.
