Why are football tickets so cotdamn high?

[TheNig]

I was really looking forward to going to the Texas A&M/Alabama game but just to sit in the nosebleeds it's $425. I got a nice lil severance from the Navy and I haven't even spent 5gs of it. But what I look like spending close to a stack for a good seat at Kyle field? Aint shyt to do in College Station.

Seen some UofH tickets for the low low and they're playing at Reliant this season. Guess I know where I'll be going.

Only 4 or 5 home games a season and the South worships football.

I remember all fsu tix were $55-65. Stubhub has came thru and let these institutions know how much they can charge and get away with charging. Now "premium games" now start at $80. Just for nosebleeds to see Skins-Boys in October is like damn near $500. SRO is even costing $150. They keep thinking its the TV experience keeping folks away but I believe it's really these astronomical prices

Mind is made up. I'm hitting up that UofH/Southern game becuz I know it's gone be some fine ass hoes out there.

Yeah that's why I refuse to attend a live game unless the tickets are less then $50 or free. I'd rather watch the game at home or at a bar anyways. No one wants to spend all that money to sit in the hot son, next to some fat fukk that stinks and some dude fukk that won't sit down in front

But I'm spoiled. My uncle has season tickets front row at MSU football games and basketball games so I've been going to live games my whole life and if I want to go see a game I can just ask him to go for free or really cheap. so I don't know what it's like to pay for a game or never had been to one

Biggest game of the season so far. Like Bama games, you get a good deal at the games that's usually on PPV or when they're playing a FCS school.

nfl ain't no different... tried to get tickets to see redskins vs 49ers.. shyt ain't even close to being sold out yet.. lowest seats are about $90 and thats for no seat.. just standing in some "fan" section.. even all the was up top where you need binoculars, it's about $125 a seat... on the other hand you can go see wizards vs. heat and be damn near on the floor for $60

Yeah this is easily one of the biggest regular season games of the year......$425 is headcrack but with those 2 fan bases, people who dont feel safe waiting until gameday will pay it.

That's the problem tho. I thought I was getting a deal becuz I wasn't gone wait til gameday. It's $175 to sit on the 50 for the Southern/Houston game. Lol

You don't SIT at Kyle Field.

You'll be paying $400+ to stand up most likely

But I feel you tho. I dont even fool with the OU/TX game anymore b/c I'm not paying $300-$400 for those tickets. It's not because I dont have it, but it's just the principle of it. They're clearly gouging you on emotion.

shiit if you know UA students for home games they be selling they tickets

Believe this or not, I had tickets to the '08 and '10 Iron Bowls for $50 a piece.
