$795 for a pair of tickets to 1 game?

Did I hear the guy on the Boston TV right? And season ticket holders get a break - $750 a pair. Who would pay that much to watch ANY baseball game from ANY location - other than putting a uniform on and sitting in the dugout.

I paid over $400 for one ticket to the 2006 WS game 5......in the bleachers.

I paid more than that for a ticket to opening day of the new stadium

I've paid more than that for a ticket to an event.

Wow. I don't see myself forking over that kind of cash for anything less than a Game 7 of a WS.

Personally i would never fork over that kind of money unless I was sitting in the dugout. But I these tickets are for like Thursday night against Cleveland.

I missed the first part, maybe you get to go in the clubhouse or something.

I almost paid 800.00 for a ticket for Red Sox/Yankees game 3 in Boston. I was talked/forced out of it & I'm glad I didn't go.

Crazy. The only way I'd throw out that kinda money would be a fight between Muhammad Ali and Bob Dylan.

Edit: I'd also pay the same amount to see Will Ferrell and Ben Stiller fight to the death. That's a win-win situation.

I might go as high as $200 for a Game 7 Cardinals world series ticket. Which means I'd never go.

Seriously, almost a grand for tickets? That's 90 albums, or 100 movie tickets. It'd be half of what we still owe on our car.

I'm a little weird on this I guess. I don't like to see bands live that often, and for sports I'm perfectly happy watching on TV with some friends or by myself.

I guess it all depends on how much disposable income you have. $1000 isn't a lot of money to some people and they wouldn't think twice about paying it. It is a lot of money to me but I'd find a way to make it happen for a Cards game 7 or any game where they could clinch the title with decent seats or better. That's the only team/concert/entertainment event I care enough about to spend that kind of dough, though.
