A voice of reasonI am not sure I follow your logic. I don't see how it would make financial sense to pay to reduce the capacity of the stadium. Do you think that reducing the capacity would cause the people who currently buy season tickets to willingly pay more for those same tickets? Supply/demand would indicate that if the price goes up, sales would drop. Even if there was an artificial reduction in supply. I could see an argument if it was a product that cost money to produce, but we are talking about capital costs to decrease the capacity.
If the suggestion is to add more premium seating, that could make sense if all of the premium seating is currently sold out and there is demand for more. I just don't understand the reasoning behind paying more money to simply force a reduction in capacity, nor where the return on that capital spending would come from.
Of course, many people are more than willing to spend other people's money.
