Yea, I would never pay more than $25 to watch a sporting event.... be it baseball, football, soccer, boxing... whatever. Even the Superbowl. I just don't understand and can't fathom paying $1000 or more for a seat to watch anything. That's a year's worth of tires and oil changes for my bike. Different priorities I guess.
I did get sucked into paying $80 to watch a Joe Bonomassa concert. A buddy asked if I wanted to go, and that he would pick up the tickets and I could pay him back. Had never heard of the guy but my buddy said he was a great guitar player. Thinking it would be $25 or something I said ok. When we got there he handed me my ticket and it said $80 on it and I almost fainted. Are you kidding me? The guy was good, (great guitar player as advertised) and I enjoyed the show, but I didn't enjoy it $80 worth.
