Percentages are stupid when you are talking increases. They are reporting percentages so that it’s a headline grabber.

Gym seats are going from $65 for season tickets to $100. That’s not some crazy high number. Last year there were 6 home events. That means tickets are now ~$17 each when they were -$11 each last year.

Yeah, but that's an extremely effective strategy if you want to grab the attention of this fan base. They know their audience, and play to it well.

They would be stupid not to raise gymnastics ticket prices.

LOL no they aren't.

Maybe for LSU gymnastics season tickets. But not for 99% of inflation.

Percentages are stupid….

Wbb went from 275 a pair to over 500 a pair
Men’s football end zone 580 to 850 for my end zone… (48 percent increase)…I have three for guests… prices went from 1525 to 1600 a seat for my seats by the students on sideline … not much increase but already priced high..

It adds up… my gym went up and sure mbb will also..

Fwiw the football game experience has been in significant decline.. morning games.. heat stroke afternoon games.. questionable playing.. nil=mercenary team players..

LSU will publish increase to taf which were not high but what they are not saying is they are upping cost of seats.. .. then the taf fee

They are going after any place they can get another nickel out without pricing you out totally.
