Where are your seats Dutch? I'm in the 200 level so while my tix have definitely gone up I wouldn't call it gouging.

Maybe it doesn't decline.

However Gouge was a correct assessment. For anyone in the red seats, Loge - or floor. You could live in the blue seats forever

Skyscraper would you call two seats at $4,500 moving to $12,000 a gouge?

Agree different sections had different pricing increases and lower level and loge were upped significantly. Was just saying nothing in the 200s was out of control IMO.

that's also in part to those not being sold out.
Loge and below there is a waiting list. The price increase served its intended purpose of driving off the fans who had been die hard for a long time, so guys who have their names on buildings that previously just blindly bought 8 tickets in the 200s but now wanted to be court side could get good seats for their grandkids to sit in and spill drinks on the court.

I especially appreciated the call from Matt accusing me of kicking the reporters in front of me and that I was responsible for the people that bought my seats on StubHub what a revenue generator. I'll be here longer than he will.

Whatever happened to that bald headed guy from Down Under / England he was awesome. He skipped all protocol and points and gave me whatever I wanted

Yeah i loved Westcott because of the easy egress. Meadows will be less simple I believe. Grateful for the problem though

I got booted from Westcott for 2015 but was moved over into Meadows. Quite a price hike. Back in Meadows again for 2016. I actually like Meadows over Westcott. If you arrive early and leave late, it is very easy access and parking is out of any bad weather. Short walk down Bishop to Binkley.
