I have partial season tix for the Phillies.  Have had them since graduation.  I pay what the phillies ask me to pay.  For the great run they had in the playoffs for the 00's I could sell those tix for more than twice what I paid when I couldn't go.  These past two seasons, I'm lucky if I get 25% of what I paid.

As said earlier, you are paying for the seat, through good times and bad.  Sure I could give them up and play it by ear game to game, but then i run the risk of not getting to sit where i want, or not getting tix period.  Thats the gamble.  I know this going in.  The organization should do what it needs to do in order to get fans in the seats.  The emptyness in the preferred sections is akin to the Legends suites when yankee stadium first opened.  Not having those tickets sell looks terrible on tv and is just ignoring supply and demand.

I am sure, SU has done cost modeling to show what they gain or lose by changing the structure.  You have to assume they know what they are doing anyway. :shrugs shoulders:

All I know is if we get a primetime national game, and have a paltry 30k turnout, with a sea of aluminum, it wont be a good look.
