[QUOTE="33jacket, post: 102010, member: 628"] i think the point is there was a time you could get really nice seats at a much more affordable price than you can today and when supply is MUCH HIGHER than demand, raising prices and requiring donations makes little sense. Its why its eroded to a degree. This isn't about any single human. Its about the fact that over the past few years in a tough economy ticket sales have gone down, yet prices in general at GT haven't, and for key games have gone up. People don't feel the need to buy season tickets because supply is so high. But, families who want to go to a key game when supply is still high, don't, due to costs. It is just a pure fact. Now, again, there is a balance. I personally don't want to sit in a sea of orange in the upper north...most fans wouldnt'...I owned gold seats for years right on the 50 yard line. I spent alot of money there....this doesn't apply to me. Bottom line. GT should consider eliminating PSL for many of the seats they require it today. The Upper East NEVER used to be as empty as I see it now. This is a hint. The upper east used to ALWAYS be full. Its eroded. Parking passes are now almost as expensive as a season ticket. Again, this has over doubled in cost over the past 10 years. Its just little things stacked up, with high supply, that make people balk. If the supply was low...we wouldnt' have this problem. Its not. Tech has on average 5k empty seats a game. This tells me that 5k tickets are non-revenue producing. So, is it better for tech to get zero out of that? Or...reduce costs across the board and try to get something? Thats my point [/QUOTE]
