Message: [QUOTE="Scooch, post: 5624728, member: 628"] I'm pretty sure that most pro franchises employ this kind of progressive price increases model. They'll hold the line for some sections (e.g. bleachers at a ballpark) while raising prices for premium sections (e.g. field boxes from first base to third base). I imagine the thought process is that more affluent ticket holders in premium zones can withstand the increase more than ticket holders in lower priced areas. I think the 7 game vs. 6 game complaint is valid, however. Paying the same price for 14% less product isn't cool. I'm farrrr less sympathetic to the complaints about home schedule "quality". Nature of any sport is that some years are going to be more compelling than others, schedule-wise. Ultimately you buy tickets to see Syracuse. [/QUOTE]
