Yeah, but these increases will eventually price folks like me out and either just become more and more corporate or will just have a huge Cathedral of football with plenty of empty seats. I know they will always have some folks will scrimp and save to come up with it for a while until next increase; I can not do this now especially to see S H state, ULM, etc. at $207/seat that people are giving away before game time! Sad but true and guess is just the way of future!

You are correct. As long as people buy the seats, they will continue to go up in price. Its simple economics.

I'm afraid of this happening. What's the point of having 110,000 seats when the stadium is only 65% full because the tickets are too damn high? Dealing with a price hike plus the traffic woes are going to keep a lot of fans home.

I'm in the same boat.

So basically more seats for Chase Bank and Capital One, while the old folks who sit behind me, (who's tickets were passed down from her mom and dad who sat there since the 1930's) will finally get pushed out of the stadium.
