Yes, they are bought up by ticket brokers who inflate prices because a certain aspect of society has the financial means or connections to purchase them. These ticket brokers are as crooked as it gets.
Are there not laws against scalping tickets?? This is legalized scalping. No one is saying it's a constitutional right to be able to buy tickets, but there is price regulation in our country on certain items and I feel sporting events should fall under this umbrella. There should be a fair market value established. When tickets to a SPORTING EVENT that last two hours are going for $2000 in the nosebleeds, there is something fundamentally wrong with that...sorry.

I'm the furthest thing from one of those wing nuts. I am all for free enterprise and capitalism as long as it somewhat regulated and fair. These tickets brokers have basically cornered the market on tickets and they have set the prices. It's not right. Is Wall Street not regulated? There are laws that regulate information and how it is disseminated to ensure the market is fair and equitable. These brokers have taken the equitable out of sporting events.
